Mike Mulvey appointed as mariners coach for two seasons
That's about as high as they could aim and about as good a job as he could get.Quote:

I'd say he'll visit Centrelink much sooner. He's gotta fill his squad with people from somewhere.Quote:

So Mulvey thinks the Mariners are ‘a sleeping giant.’ It’s fair to say Mulvey has absolutely no ****ing idea what that means because there is NOTHING that suggests the Mariners will ever be a powerhouse in Australian football. No history, **** all fans, **** all money, and no real ability to expand on anything at all.
a sleeping giant turd that will never wake up innit?
as part of the A-League capital cities only expansion plan they really need to move the Mariners franchise to the other side of the Hawkesbury (they'll still be shit, but at least they'll be a Sydney team then and get preferential treatment from FFA)...
Expecting a Mulvey resignation announcement Monday morning :lulz:
I bet he struck a line through about 10 of the 11 players who started and then he'll be slowly realising that he only has about 80% of the salary cap to spend to replace them.Quote:

Their CEO is apparently pretty good. Charlesworth is their problem. No outside cap spending, no money above the salary floor... they are only spending what they have to under the CBA. Hard to not imagine Mulvey getting the exact same kind of output next season without money... best they can hope for is dire, rigid but organised football like Miller did with us in his season.Quote:

Oh wow. Is this true?Quote:

Also, plenty of talk about a drinking culture within the team.
Hurry up and move them to North Sydney.
Hobart Mariners has a nice ring to it.Quote:

In a statement released on Wednesday, the club confirmed that Liam Rose, Storm Roux, Jacob Poscoliero, Josh Bingham, Blake Powell, Peter Skapetis and Tom Glover will all conclude their time on the Coast.
Wasn't Liam Rose being courted by City at one point?
Skapetis looked ok the 2 times I watched him but he mustn't have set the world on fire to be released by the then lowly-placed Roar and then last-placed Mariners. Same with Poscoliero - didn't happen for hm in Perth before moving back to teh Mariners.
Roux is meant to be going to Victory.
Glover, back to Spurs I'd suggest before coming back to Australia.
Bingham has finally been found out. Powell has just fallen off a cliff from his Nix form but could see him at the Wanderers.
Sydney to Hobart, dual home bases you mean??Quote:

Really though, when the club has come out and said they'll be operating A-League side on the absolute bare-minimum funds to stay afloat it's hard to see why they thought getting a W-League license to add to their expenses would be a good idea.
If they hadn’t already got a few credits in the bank from their consistent finals appearances, surely more people would be questioning their viability by now.
A full home and away schedule, even thought there is a bye round. You might wonder if a W-League team is a requirement for teams that have expressed an interest in joining the comp?Quote:

Thought they had a team full of women already??
Called their HAL side
Put them in the W League be about their level
8-2 have to support that shite Mulvey has to coach
Anyone got an update on Hoole's Euro adventure?
Do you think he'd be expecting to play in the Youth Team after only one year in Europe?
Where's Bolt?
That's a great question!!!Quote:
