[Ancient Mariner]

It amazes me that the Mariner`s are focus of the media`s attention due to our financial state, yet the likes of Newcastle & Brisbane remain unscathed.
Historically our owners have steered the ship through some dangerous waters but we have come out the other side intact.
MC & Shaun realized that we had to take a step backwards to ensure we could move forward & as much as most on here don`t like it we do accept it to ensure our viability.
We may have another tough season ahead but if we can hold on to our young guns, the future seems to be bright.

Hear, hear, I would rather be us and be in our position rather than Roar now or Newcastle ever.

We'll ALWAYS be better than newcastle FTS.

This is one of a myraid of reasons for my
Utter contempt of the truely sycophantic ,
Duplicitious, myopic media
Namely the whining kerr , harper .

There should be a pair of underpants . With a world class skid mark awarded
For harpers style of journalist fraud

 

[Tevor]

Add Bosnich to the list as well, he has a dig every chance he gets and also backs the frequent poor refereeing decisions we cop. Some early season success would be nice so I don't have to listen to his constant promotion/relegation rant.

 

[localpom]

Would love to stick it up all of them this season. A top 6 pozzie would do just that.

Hutch's fan club has got the shits and pulled the plug......

Yeah, we did

 

[Wombat]

The club needs you more than ever nearlyyellow. Hutcho will be back when he has picked up more coaching experience.

 

[MagpieMariner]

I was disappointed that Hutch has moved on (temporarily I hope), but I would rather continue to hold him in high esteem while he proves himself (or not) as a coach elsewhere. There is another team I follow where a club legend has shown himself to not be a coach's bootlace while dragging the team down causing me to wish he'd just go away and not come back. I'd hate to start feeling that way about Hutch.
I've seen time and time again that it is very unusual for a champion player to transform into a champion coach.

So let's hope that Okon is a different kettle of fish, in that regard also.

At least Paolo has done some coaching at a fairly high level (national team even if only the boys is pretty high), Hutch and the other bloke I was talking about have not. So I'm hopeful, and anyway how much further down can we go?

 

[MagpieMariner]

As well, I don't care too much if Paolo isn't a champion coach, good will do.

Ease up, he hasn't moved up there.

Its a Job, would you prefer Lawrie live with the homeless under Brian McGowan bridge ?

Even though I agree with the general thought, I don't think these are the two choices he has/had... CEO of the Jets or live with the homeless under Brian McGowan bridge...

 

[Rowdy]

He said, "I have to keep a roof over my head".
Also said that he chooses to stay living on the Coast as "that's my home".

More than enough for me, BUT others wish to cast him as the whipping-boy.
...... so be it , Flog away.
