    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 can't see Rizzo staying beyond ACL

Owens won't be here IMO either

for some reason i thought he was on two years

yeah, probably won't be signed as he could even make the extended squad for ACL

Wow, so i guess Rizzo was as bad as everyone thought? The Perth glory fans where jeering with their "you can have him" banter and i was quietly thinking he might of shone under lawrie...

Shame really, poor guy would of had such high hopes back in the late nineties when he first walked into anfield!

Kevin McCabe interview in The Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/may/03/sheffield-united-championship-promotion

Very interesting read.

"We've looked at developing our international links, to harness talented players from different continents," McCabe says

"Our aspirations are a bit different it's also to get the clubs to build a business model to be commercially profitable as well as nurturing the best academies in those countries,"

Sold 10,000 tickets to the game at Selhurst Park today and expect more to travel.

Atmosphere will be white hot - real football

Good pick up ... I was interested when McCabe said they sent 5 of their players to another club as they could play there as they would never quite make the grade in England ... also the same bit you picked up on the profit thing ... wonder what that means for the academy ..

It means he still wants to invest in the academy with a club that has a sound business model but means he isn't going to pay for a marquee because we can have United cast-offs.

The investment in the academy will continue as it is a great way to get cheap land and council backing for the primary goal - A hotel!!!  What a great location just of the freeway and next to the business park.

McCabe has been trying to build a hotel & casio at Bramall Lane for years, he has privatised the club again just as a large amount of cash is about to arrive from West Ham and it has not been invested in the team, in fact we sold the leading goal scorer in the last transfer window and how we could have done with some goals in the last few games to gain automatic promotion and not enter the play off lottery.

The good news is we are paying the blood money in Icelandic Krona, it was converted at the rate of exchange upon Sheff Utds relegation and is now worth the same as a beer in the CCLC!

Good luck to PNE in the 2nd leg!
