    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.

Although I agree with Dibo (as I have been on the receiving end from time to time, who hasn't) I don't think the moderators should be upset with local football talk! It is still bringing people onto the site! There is really not that much to talk about in the off season regarding the Mariners.

In this case, no news is good news as most news is negative news anyway!

I have noticed forum members have dropped from the mid 900's to the high 700's over the past 3 or 4 months! I only knew that we were in the 900's because I thought how good would it be to reach the 1,000 mark (as I was keeping an eye on it!).

The local banter is one person's interest at any one time! I do understand however that some of it would not be worth a penny unless you are a coast resident or coast player as it does not relate to you. Similar to me not commenting on subjects that I have no interests in. That doesn't mean that they are not worth while areas of discussion. :)

This is in only for people interested how our kids faired, in highest competition NSW has for our elite kids.

Last years U15's who finished last due to closed trials, this year was one point way from taking out the U16 State Titles. Well done boys.

U15's a depleted side as lightning boys were told not to trial (FACT) and represent your region. came in a competitive 5th.

U14's only lost 1 game to a Metro sides which boast all Premier Youth Players, came in equal 4th with Met North. This shows that our region has quality and can compete with best kids in state.

U11's equal 5th and great start to their state team process.

Well done boys you did our region proud.

You have to assume he has some other coaching gig lined up (hopefully involved with the mariners academy). I have done a couple of coaching clinics with my 2 eldest boys and the NSW Football Talent Spotting Program run out of Budgy was the best by far. My eldest boy's skills and composure improved out of sight as a direct result of the school holiday 4 x 3 hour clinic. I hope they get a decent replacement for him.
