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.
Pretty sure the rules also state whilst you get the ball you still cannot take a player out, it’s a 50/50 at best so definitely not clear and obvious in my opinion. Seen plenty of them given and not just keepers taking players out. Same rules should apply in the box and we know that is not always the case.
With KGJ on var it was never going to be a penalty. He did everything he could to try and get a win for MV.
He should be stood down, way too much factual evidence of clear bias over many seasons. He is a blight on the referee fraternity. The APL should never have agreed to use FA referees, diabolical decision that is causing damage to the League.
Noticed that in the family photo. Wonder if we’ll see anything in the next few days now our game is out of the way.
IMO the ball didn’t get far away at all and with the keeper on the ground Nizzy would have had a decent chance to regather it and have a shot. May look different when I revisit on the highlights but that was my impression on the replay at the ground.
The point is he should not have judged on it at all. I believed at the time it was a penalty. I've relooked and reread the laws. I still think it is a penalty. At worst the original decision was NOT a clear and obvious error so VAR should not heave been involved.
Nizz just tried to pass it round Acton. He would have got to the ball easily. Good goalkeeping meant Acton would have controlled the ball. He didn't - he tripped Nizz. Penalty.
He definitely would have had to change course to get to it, went out to his side from memory but didn’t go that far. But yeah I will check them out later.
