Mariners squad HAL 10 ~ 2014/15

[midfielder]

Gotta say this is dragging on.

A couple of interesting tweets this evening from Benny O'Neill:

Hi @NZ_Football - nice of you to mention McGlinchey as a "former" #CCMFC player. Better check who you sent your request for his participation for your friendly against Uzbekistan to recently. @NZ_Football http://bit.ly/1pBCIOF

 

[dibo]

Heh. Snarky!

 

[disordinary]

Apparently Football NZ asked both CCM and the Nix just to be safe, I wonder if they also asked Vegalta Sendai?

It was however good of CCM to say yes to him playing for the NZ selection outside of an international window, I'm assuming that they said Yes.

interesting glimpse into Mossy's plans (from ccm site)

“I have seen in training the good abilities of our
players,” Vernes said. “(And) I have spoken four
or five times with the coach, Phil, so I know that
we will play with short passes.”

[VicMariner]

He's gonna see a lot of bench.

 

[Capt. Awesome]

Wow. I wonder if he has is in him to play well for a team he doesn't want to play for.

Nix seeking legal advice.

This isn't over.

I don't think the wee man has any issues with the mariners, he either thought he was no longer contracted or had found a loop hole and could take big money from Wellington. I think he is mature enough to come back and play well

Agree.
He is quality and will want to show it as other clubs may come in for him. I can see him going to Victory or Brisbane rather than the Nix.

 

[dibo]

I'd like to see him crack out a great 6 months and win a transfer OS. Bridges to be mended first.

And the PFA statement:

According to the PFA the licence was supposed to transfer to CC Mariners Pty Ltd back in October 2013, but for whatever reason never did.

Good Luck Phoenix,

Never write off the Mariners

 

[rbakersmith]

Interestingly the entire WeeMac thread over at Yellow Fever appears to have been removed, and they've prevented discussion on the arbiter's decision.

No it was moved from phoenix players to new Zealand players overseas.

This is now a team that should challenge any a-league team and could win trophies...

The club just released a statement:

STATEMENT: Michael McGlinchey

The independent arbitrator in the contract dispute regarding Central Coast Mariners FC, Wellington Phoenix FC, Professional Footballers Australia (PFA), and Michael McGlinchey this afternoon ruled that McGlinchey remains rightfully contracted to Central Coast Mariners FC Pty Ltd – the company which holds the Central Coast Mariners license to compete in the Hyundai A-League.

Central Coast Mariners FC acknowledges Wellington Phoenix FC’s communications this evening stating their intention to seek legal advice regarding the independent arbitrator’s decision.

However, the Mariners find Wellington Phoenix FC’s statement regarding “whether or not McGlinchey and other players have been, and are actually contracted to, the legal entity that holds the license for the Central Coast Mariners to play in the Hyundai A-league” as unnecessary and unhelpful.

The Mariners remain committed to open and transparent dialogue with Football Federation Australia (FFA) and Wellington Phoenix FC regarding all matters.

Central Coast Mariners also note public comments made by PFA Chief Executive, Mr Adam Vivian, regarding the independent arbitrator’s decision this afternoon.

Central Coast Mariners Chairman, Mr Michael Charlesworth, thanked Mr Peter Kite SC, the independent arbitrator in the McGlinchey case, for his decision today.

Charlesworth said that despite the fresh comments made by Wellington Phoenix FC and the PFA, Mariners management remains steadfast in their belief that McGlinchey is rightfully contracted to the Club, and that that will be proven to be correct again in any further legal proceedings.

“I’m not convinced that the PFA are now acting, as they should, in the best interests of Michael McGlinchey, the Clubs, or the Hyundai A-League,” Mr Charlesworth said.
