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!

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.
OzTAM claim they have a panel of just over 10k households. If you don’t have a box you have no impact on the ratings whatsoever. You are invisible. So you have approximately 26k people providing ratings for almost 26 million (ie 1 viewer represents around 1000) and they are spread out across the country. Worse still if some/all members of that household are watching via P+ it’ll tank the ratings so you’re actively asking potential football fans to watch the crap version with ads.
Heard that the handover should be done in next 2-3 weeks.
to be fair, there were 10k+ at a 12k capacity stadium due to the whole other side being under construction but I bet if we had it at home we'd come close to packing it out!
I was referring to the WTFU v Nix game as I felt Adelaide did ok giving the stadium restrictions but why didn’t they move to a bigger venue but I guess then it would have looked empty. Better having a full half stadium than repeating the embarrassment of the night before.
I’m certainly not blind to the issues but given the options of death riding the league or being optimistic I’m going with the latter because the alternative sucks and doesn’t get us anywhere. There’s been way too much to be negative about in the world over the last few years and it’s exhausting. We can both agree turning things around next season is critical.
I’m not death riding the league, head in the sand approach will not benefit anyone. There are many and clear failings, if not addressed who knows what will be around in three years. I’ve been a huge advocate for the A league but this season has been atrocious at best.
Plenty are though. So often online including here and on the reddit sub legitimate complaints end up in a vicious cycle to a point where people are looking for the negative and the angle in everything. From there it’s all doom and gloom and the bar for being satisfied becomes harder to reach as mole hills have become mountains.
Injury prone but a brilliant pick up tht shows that SFC are a shambles with youth development - bloke on Twitter reckons they didnt even make him an offer
Their assessment of his condition must be pretty bleak. Presumably WSW gave him a thorough look over so one side or the other is going to look silly. I think he’s worth the gamble as long as he isn’t completely cooked.
TBF Tevor.....you and Fulham.......do love a death ride and throttle!! Are you sure you are not Scottish??
Lol, I do have some Scottish heritage.
But he's a good bloke (ask him) and it's not like Sydney are a disaster is it?
No season is atrocious when we make the finals -in fact it is an excellent season ( only great if we win the GF)
Zullo was a decent footballer -pity his last couple of years blighted by injury.
