    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!

    If you want to get rid of this message, simply click on Join Now or head over to https://www.ccmfans.net/community/register/ to join 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.

Need to start getting back soon. The round of 32 is filled with sides leading their respective NPLs this year. A fit in form side could easily knock us out.

Monty drives them hard from the Get Go. I snuck in and watched part of a session at the height of covid last pre-season (before they chucked me out for breaching their covid protocols) and was VERY impressed at their fitness and the intensity that they trained at. I reported on here that i felt we would have a good season. I now live 5 mins from the CoE so will stake out a session once they are back from the Bintangs.

Great to hear.
I am substantially less worried this off season because of the relative stability of our squad. Some seasons past it felt like our first competitive game was an afterthought.

It would be amazing and very A league to go from looking half decent against premier league teams to getting knocked out of the cup by an NPL side. Austin should get on the board.
It definitely would be peak A-Liga. Heidelberg's coach, George Katsakis, has done it before against the Glory so don't put it past them. Pretty similar squad to the one that beat the Glory as well, minus King Kenny of course.
