    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.

Some of the oldies on this forum might remember Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich from the 60s.

Their singer Dave Dee died yesterday from prostate cancer.

They were a band that didn't take themselves too seriously.

You'll be missed Dave.

Not sure if I'm the only person on this forum who remembers them, but one interesting thing about the song Hold Tight is that it is believed that the song was responsible for launching countless football chants, when you listen to the intro you can see where that came from.

Also the song featured in the Quentin Tarantino movie Death Proof.

Interesting, the clapping really gained ground at the '66 WC and probably remains THE England chant.

song was written in '65 so quite possible.

Also that clapping/chant appeared in the original Italian job theme (1969)
