ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.
ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

I said to one of my mates at half time - never underestimate the crowd being pulled in by a NAME - like Aloi$i last year......

I'll concede the ugly - poor crowd for this time of season compared to last year
I reject the embarrassment - look around at the others (other than Victory) - we are doing OK in a bad season
Want embarrassment? - check out LethargyAustralia's crowd later today.
Kareem said:hmmmm after that match I am going to be a tad harsh
Good freekick- but maybe not the best positioning by Danny (but maybe doesn't have confidence in the wall after cole in game vs sydney???)
NB: that's where I position him in fifa09 but thats only a game so I am not contradicting myself (the walls r so crap and freekicks are like 40-50% succession rate)
How we didn't get the foul firstly is confusing me but meh...
we did play bad going forward which was painful to watch
well taken goal to Gumps
unlucky by hutcho at end but...we didnt deserve to win tbh- so a draw was fair IMO
Vukovic- didn't have much work to do- but when called upon he did his job- just a small question mark on positioning for freekick- but he won't perfect that for years to come (as the case for most keepers)
Wilko- i was impressed- maybe starting to regain that form!
Bojic- I love this guy- frakin awesome!
Porter- get him out of defence- he is a midfielder and houdl eb in hutcho's spot
D'Appuzo- he is getting there- got good potential- did get caught out a bit by their right flanker (Murdocca?)
Jedinak- distribution wasnt that great tbh- could have had a shot 2-3 times but didnt (where is his confidence). But he performed his holding role to precision- winning the ball numerous times
Hutcho- actually a decent game but he still needs to be benched for porter
Osman- ummmm! OUT NOW- ring Gumps in!
Caceres- nice. he is getting there- and played a full game too!
Sasho- some questionable decisions on passing/not passing- but was allright
Macca- was good on ball + in air- but he just aint firing- not good enough supply?
Gumps- Quality strike!
START HIM NOW!he did reinvigorate our attack. He engages the crowd- wat more do u want???
lol- I was saying before the game though that he never scores - I'm glad ot be proven wrong!
Mrdja- some interesting decision making at times but he will come good (I hope!)
Ref- hated the reffing- not good quality
Girl Linesman- shocking- needs to learn + understand offside rule!
jaypee said:Sash was poor, we really missed the runs and hassle that Matty S provides and that also hurt Dylan as he never got the ball unless it was in the air....

marinermick said:well, the FIFA09 result is in:
Mariners 1 (d-mac)
QLD 1 (van-shite)
bear in mind that FIFA09 has predicted 5 of the last 6 results and 2 of the last 6 scorelines
fedelt said:imo vukovic should be training on fifa 09 rather than on the pitch so that he can save free kicks like that.
