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!

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.

Here is the official version of the song sung at the Victory Parade.
Wouldn't it be great to produce a quality song involving the players with the Yellow Army backing!
I was actually speaking with a member of a fairly popular local band who suggested getting together and writing with him. Would be pretty cool as I was a massive fan of these guys when I was in my teens.
Definitely worth pursuing. Would be great to capture the sound of the Bay 16 v Eastern Stand sing-offs as backing!
What's the band Pete?
For the song, I'd like something that starts simple but builds a massive crescendo. As always, the hook would be in a really catchy chorus. A double bonus would be if the chorus is simple and strong enough to be picked up as a chant.
Don't care if it's an original tune, or a good cover.
what about we are the champions by crazy frogskilbeck said:Wrong. We all know that all you chant is "newc-arse-hole clap clap clap" or variations of that.
Wrong. We now also sing "we are champions"
cool this could b r club song that we play b4 every home game as the players come out (just like YNWA)PP was just listening to this & thought there might be a chant in it for you..
It has a good drum beat & substitute djapana for " Mariner" in the chorus.
Something along the lines of
Bay 16
oh oh oh Mariners
We... are champions!
oh oh oh Mariners
We ...are Champions!
oh oh oh Mariners
We...are Champions!
(East stand) oh oh oh Mariners
(west stand) We ..are Champions!
Repeat 3 times then swap
(west stand) oh oh oh Mariners
(east stand) We..are Champions!
Then into a two clap Mariners until it fades away....
Your thoughts?
well i herd that Brad Mcdonald can play the guitar pritty well & there's a video of him somewhere on the mariners official websiteHere is the official version of the song sung at the Victory Parade.
Not something that is likely to be sung by Bay 16, as I doubt we have the talent these guys have. But a great way to remember our Championship win.
I've put the lyrics, as best as I can hear them. Correct me if I've got any of it wrong.
We're Mariners (Tro-Phey!)
(Tune - Ho Hey - The Lumineers)
Tro-phy!
Tro-phy!
Tro-phy!
We've been close so many times.
We've been waiting all our lives.
Now we've beat the Black & Red.
Hold the trophy above our head.
Hold the trophy above our head.
Because we're all a family.
Living the football dream.
Zwaanswijk knocked that header in.
And McBreen a penalty.
Now we won the A-League.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
Central Coast can celebrate.
Terrigal to Tuggerah Lakes.
Took a bus to Sydney Town
And now we wear the crown.
And now we wear the crown.
Lets stand here singing now.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
Yeah We got it now.
Central Coast's the one.
Yeah, we believe it now.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
Living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
We're Yellow & we're Blue.
Living near the sea.
We're Mariners.
Tro-phy!
Tro-phy!
McGlinchey!

With Palace securing promotion to the Premier League, the Crystal Girls celebrated by recording their own version of the club's anthem "Glad All Over", and toasted the boys' success with their friends .... maybe BG could get something going on the Coast...
