    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.

I still have a question over the potential offside - the Fox replay showed it extremely close, and they paused it BEFORE it was kicked.
I really hope the VAR had more of a look at it - but knowing the VAR, probably not.

Yellow and penalty. Red card is an overreach by a rookie referee and a shit call from VAR.

Unsurprisingly we get f**ked by it but Rowles shouldn't have put himself in that position.

I don't see that as a push through. His arms weren't really up (compared to Taylor on Simon for example), he was trying to get into a position to make a tackle and made contact with Krishna, who took the chance to go down. It was clumsy, but it wasn't a professional foul. It seemed like exactly the kind of foul that doesn't deserve a penalty, red card, and suspension that the rules were introduced to fix.

No it's not - red card was mandatory there. The commentators are right - the yellow card option doesn't apply to a push. The Laws specifically state that It's as clear a case of DOGSO as you'll get.

The entire foul was the arm in the back. You can't call it anything other than a push. And the pushes are excluded from the new laws...so, ref really had no option whatsoever there.

As the commentators said - why the hell wouldn't you just slide? He should know better than that. A slide means a yellow card if he gets vaguely near the ball.

I don't even agree with the characterisation of it being a push, he put his hand on his shoulder (not back) and Krishna went down like a sack of shit

Let's say it wasn't a dive.
What else can an arm in the back possibly be? it certainly isn't a trip
