    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.

To be fair, contracts are there to remove the need for any loyalty/emotion/trust. I’d rather it be unambiguous on paper. If everyone agreed to it and it was negotiated in good faith… 🤷‍♂️ Realistically, power imbalance and lack of good faith are pretty common, hence why good lawyers are 100% worth the pennies.
A lawyer that only charges pennies?

Ngor was a 2 year contract as well.

Our business this season has been insanely underwhelming to say the least 😂

I obviously misread it. I thought he was on loan to us and we sent him back.. I forgot the two year deal.

Bloody hell., I feel like this season is a balloon that has had a pin taken to it.

Yeh, this is very interesting, like he literally just came on, was 1 of about 4 players that led to that goal and yet Trent got straight up, spun around violently and absolutely ripped into Ngor... I remember thinking at the time it was weird.

Maybe more to it from training, attitude etc?
TBH - watching that live I didn't want the change made and I immediately thought he was the one initially at fault for not pressing the opposition (especially when he was fresh). A line of 4 just seemed to back away. This happened in the oppositions' half so there was plenty of opportunity to stop the goal. If that had happened the blowup wouldn't have happened and it would have been dealt with in the post game analysis. As much as MJ says the squad is tight and can handle honest truths man management tells you that people are different and react differently to criticism or encouragement.

This works both ways. A well done can be seen as condescending to some players but encouraging for others. Players are different and the manager's job is to find out what approach works for each player

Some good knowledge out of that video, Mauragis and Migz back in the squad.

A player that Jacko really wants but he admits it looks unlikely, and that's it for transfers.

Feels more like it's been blown up and let go without being tied up! <insert farty balloon noise>
