Central Coast Mariners Academy - 2014

[priorpeter]

A lot of talk going around that CCF and CCMA have severed all ties. Lawyers at 20 paces apparently.

 

[Big Al]

Bilo got a hammering on the mariners for suggesting this same thing

 

[Einstein]

Its real, its ugly.

No, bilo got a hammering for blindly hating the club and every single thing they do; banging on about how well connected he/she is; harping on about his/her "inside source at the club"; and also for talking about how many of his/her 'loyal' season ticket holder mates have now signed up for membership at the Jets.

Actually it was hardly a hammering. I've seen far worse dished out on here.

No, bilo got a hammering for saying that MC had set the lawyers onto CCF & gave no other insight. Like I said to him at the time you don't just set lawyers onto an organisation for no reason.
Either way you look at it, MC has strong views & no matter what you think of them, its being detrimental to everything about our club other than probably the bottom line.

Don't mind the hammering. It's a public forum and people are entitled to their views. I will say it again. I don't hate the club. I actually support the team and can count on one hand the number of home games I have missed in 9 seasons. I just don't like the way it us managed in the back office.

This thing with the academy, if it goes to court has the potential to bring the club to its knees. We should be focusing on the first team signing players. Promoting memberships. Not getting stuck on this crap.

Amen to that.

 

[Bladesman]

Hopefully common sense will prevail. Club with no money in court with an association with no cash just means suffering for the fans and players with the lawyers being the only real winners.

 

[dibo]

While I know nothing about what's actually going on in the background, I still feel I need to pose the question: what exactly leads you to the conclusion that an outbreak of common sense is even a remote possibility?

 

[bilo]

Found out today there is a mediation session on Friday with lawyers from both sides.

Me thinks it's going to get ugly

 

[neverwozza]

Is this really just about training grounds? I'll be mighty pissed if the club that I pay shitloads to follow is suing the association that I pay shitloads to play in because of ccma training ground access (I pay them shitloads too). If my shitloads ends up in lawyers pockets instead of improving cc football (both professional and amateur) I won't be happy.

 

[Big Al]

Legal fees are much better spent elsewhere.

So it seems like it's on but why?

who owes who & who is wronged by who.

Nothing good as neverwozza has said can come out of the two most important football groups in the central coast going blow for blow.

 

[midfielder]

This is not a good look ...

Sometimes and I guess I am hoping for what will never happen is some communication from somebody ...

 

[bilo]

It's about more than training grounds. It about money and resources.

They were meant to have mediation today but I haven't heard if it went ahead.

1st Grade women won the minor premiership on the weekend with 5 rounds to play. They have lost only one game all year. Senior women are also leading the club championship.

 

[Jolly_Roger]

16's Leading the comp
18's Leading the comp
20's in eighth, but only 6 points off first (very tight the under 20's comp)
1st in Seventh

All with 5 games to play

It seems that it's coming together on the park, though the CCMA kids aren't having a great time in div 1 so the youth and seniors will be in NPL2 next year.

A bit of stability wouldn't go astray.

 

[marinerfix]

Off to Pluim Park tomorrow to support CCMA after juniors game. Should be in time for 16's and hopefully stay for remainder of seniors. Any reports on previous games and who we should look out for would be appreciated.

Coming together?? The kids are a shambles!

Mossy and O'Sullivan both at the academy tonight.
