    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.

The only problem will be signing autographs after the game. Those woman might want him to sign parternity tests. Ummm
Might need a local law introduced to protect our asset. We could sell his sperm like a horse. We can get more money for him as a stud

Also this is where the club needs to be careful. Optus are a personal sponsor of his. We need them to sponsor us not bolt. Same for other potential sponsors. They will all want Bolt exposure and then what. Will they leave us? Need to be smart about it long term.
Can’t dump Masterfoods for 1 yr then go crying back in two years time
That's the key, CCM should specify a multi-year sponsorship as a requirement to secure the deal tolink in with this timeframe of Bolt being (possibly) at the club.

As for Masterfoods, I'd hate to think that the current deal doesnt have a condition written into the contract where IF a bigger sponsor comes in, trumping Masterfoods $$'s amount, and they then subsequently become back of shirt (secondary Major Sponsor) at albeit a lesser amount but considerably more than what 'Dyldalm' are currently paying.

The incoming Major sponsor needs to pay $$'s that total an amount greater + the amount to offset the lesser amount that Masterfoods now pays as downgrading to back of shirt sponsor (if the $$'s are if in fact lessened)

As a side point, 'Dyldam' are no longer appearing on the CCM website. as an official partner ??? o_O

They signed for the 2016/17 season and were on the kit for two seasons, I presume that was the length of the deal and its done now.

In fairness to Masterfoods. They can have the year off but keep the sauce bottles.
Imagine the free marketing for them having Bolt running towards the giant sauce bottles.
Gets weirder every moment

They would be all over it but FFA won’t be keen.
'Exclusivity', for the likes of Hyundai, Telstra etc appears over !
As RBaker stated, Honda are now one of Melb.City's Major Sponsor's.

- & good for that, as I think that loooong period of 'exclusivity' has hampered some of the potential growth for the A-League clubs in the area of sponsorship, particularly from Asia.

Won't be long now before other 'Auto Big Boy's' come knocking on the doors of HAL Teams with cheq books in hand.

Same for Telcos like Optus, Vodaphone & Amaysim ...... who 'orange' shirted Brisb.Roar should be pitching to
- being based out of the Netherlands and all things 'Oranje' :rolleyes:

How’s the AFL Integrity unit having a twitter dig. Plenty of problems in the AFL they should be worried about not what the HAL and Bolt are doing.

Didn't happen to notice who's in the photo? ;)
