    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.

Well, Im a technical f**kin idiot and I'd play J-Britto in front of Harold next game ...just for a change to have a striker FKN starting

I think both Harold and Jair deserve a start, if we keep the same formation push Harold back in to Duric's spot and put Jair up top. Duric to the bench or if he's fit to replace either Stensness or Nisbet who haven't had the best few games lately. Pushing DDS deeper is also an option if Duric isnt up to that role right now.

Duric is a must, in the first half he created most of the opportunities like Harolds header that just missed and he takes the occasional shot. Stens probably to stay as Roar are a physical side. Nis to the bench for say a second half cameo against some tired players.

My main question over Duric is whether he is capable of getting through the work we need out of him in the middle. If he can do that then a cool head in the middle ready to switch the play quickly when an opportunity presents would be great. If he can’t then DDS can play more of a box to box role and let Duric hover further forward.

Duric is a wonderful footballer - my issue is do we have the room for more than 1 "luxury" player? Play him at 10 and surround him with hard workers. Treat him like a Berbatov or Cantona - 10 other blokes need to just give him the ball

Even if Duric is playing like Cantona, we're not going to be pushing the opposition back. We're overrun virtually all the time.
