Coast Football Ramble Podcast

[bikinigirl]

Quite a lot has happened in a month, we will have an off season show next Tuesday.
If you have any questions for us, Shaun, the club or anything at all, leave it here.

. what exactly does the role of 'Head of Football and Elite Performance' entail and what is required on a day-to-day basis?

. can the fans expect to see Monty in this role longer than the 12 or so months typical of Mariners Legends ushered into retirement (eg. Hutch and Patrick)?

 

[Tassiemariner]

Questions are probably more for Dan but I'll ask anyway.

What's the difference between the 'Non-Ticketed' and the 'International' memberships? Outside of one of them being $5 more?
What is the incentive to purchase either of these aformentioned memberships when one can pay $15-20 more and get 3 match tickets (valued at min $20 each) through the 'Home and Away' or '3-game' options.

Also, what is the benefit of having a '10% discount at Rebel Sport Erina & Central Coast Stadium' when you live 2000km away? Why not at the online store?

Otherwise, great to have the priority access to finals tickets incorporated into all memberships. Worth it just for that.

I spose it depends on wether he delivers in the job then doesn't it???

If you want to have a dig at them about Monty then do it straight up. Sniping like that just makes you look like an idiot because it will brushed aside just like i have replied above.

. of course. if there are clear deliverables

... unless the position is only intended to be short term

. i don't need sniping to make me look like an idiot, but i won't try to dissuade you from such techniques

I agree with this, I would use more than the 10% discount driving to Erina. Suspect it has to do with the Rebel Sports deal so we are somewhat tied to purchasing through them preventing the online purchases. direct with the club.

I think it is a good question, not necessarily about Monty but about the role itself. Is it fair dinkum or is it just a means of addressing an issue for 12 months? I am not sure what a role like this would pay, but if it was $100k then I would be expecting us to spend the full cap as I would just as much prefer to see Monty in the squad for $100k than back of house.

I can't speak for others but non-ticketed suits me fine over H&A, knowing it would be next to impossible to get to Gosford for a game to use those particular elements of the membership.

Presuming International is $5 more I imagine it just covers postage for the club?

Assuming it is a legitimate role (I wouldn't think Monty would take it otherwise) we will be in the position where we have a standby injury replacement for CB or central midfield roles on site.

 

[Coast Football Ramble]

Ben Cahn, Shaun Mielekamp and Dan Challinor join us in the studio.
We discuss Mariners Academy, the stadium, FFA, pre-season, memberships and much more.

76 minutes all on the Mariners. I must admit sometimes I skip through the previews and reviews unless they are our games. Really enjoyed all of the show tonight - the focus on just our club was great

I'm just curious what happens at Bunnings sausage sizzles for those strange types that keep their sauce in the fridge. Do you bring your own sauce in an Esky?

That is when the most important sauce question takes over
Tomatoe or BBQ

Myself i am a tomatoe fridge saucer and always Masterfoods. If u want BBQ sauce don't come to my house.

I was raised a cupboard man until i got married, at that point I converted to her religious beliefs and now its kept in the fridge

It's interesting discussion about the youth getting another year. I think this would benefit them.
Personally i think it should be under 23's for the academy teams.

Interesting discussion about the FFA cup game, is that Shaun being a forward thinker and planning for all options (i like that) or the FFA saying you should have a backup venue.

Good to hear they also believe the same positions as us need filling and most importantly a #10 meaning hopefully Hoole won't be the primary option there

 

[Wombat]

Why do you keep it in the fridge Al?
And btw there is no E in tomato.

Hoole is a out and out winger. No hope as a number 10

This.
Re FFA Cup, Pluim would be a great venue but I dont think the lighting would comply, unless they approved additional temporary lighting. Sauces (from the fridge) suggesting 2 pre season games at Pluim in July.

Because the wife put it in there and it never came out. So now converted

My spelling is as good as a Mariners defence with TW in charge.
Having the bad spelling button removed wasnthe highlight of my CCM fans career.

Agree but in the announcement they say he can play both and i had a feeling he would be turned into Fab.

I believe he will get time there

Thanks for the genuine chuckle their Big Al. I'm a cupboard man myself and fantastic podcast as always lads!

Also good to hear about rejecting the shirt drafts. Not going to just take a basic or ugly design.

Looking forward to the strip, hoping it's a beauty
