    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.

We just have to avoid doing a Meth Cow and slipping on a banana skin. If we are up for it we should get a comfortable win.

Im not writing off any team.Western smashed Maccas on the weekend the same as the Jets smashed Sydney.Any team on their day can beat the top teams.We just have to stay focussed on the big prize. There are no easybeats in the A League…:popcorn:

Yep, not the easy game everyone thinks it will be, especially after:
- their recent form
- preparation for going to bum kant land
- is Jake and Alou available?
- and well, a game in Victoria
Given a game day of 13/4 before an Olyroos fixture on 15/4 I suspect Jake and Alou will not be available - and potentially until semi-final time.

The ADL game with Irankunda not in the Olyroo squad will be tough as well.

After Penha went off injured, WU actually played better imho. Teams can sometimes be a little too one-player centric, which prevents other players from being able to contribute fully. Just my two cents for what it’s worth.

Didn’t see the second half but the previous games he has been good as well.

The jets were very similar in that they also used him maybe a little to much and became predictable.

Either way if they had a proper striker they would be doing even better.

They seem settled and have got through that patch where they were horrible.

AU have also given up putting nesta in the naughty corner and they are playing more freely with Nesta playing well.

Two tough games when you would think they are easy bests at the bottom of the table. The jets are the worst of the 3 but can still score especially that guy doing well with the long name

Josh Risdon out for WU with accumulation of yellow cards.
Tbh, Risdon has been ordinary for them this season imo, slow to recover in transition and not offering much in an attacking sense. Depends on who they put in to replace him.

Anyone going?
I'm going, just a warning to anyone attending the ground is absolutely tiny, poorly laid out and has no shade/cover apart from a stand which is exclusively platinum members/ticket holders.

There is a single lane road in where they will shake you down for $20 to park in an a literal dirt field, which again has only one lane out.

Tickets go on sale at 10 AM today so would reccomend picking them up quickly, especially if you want to sit under cover/shade in their grandstand.
