I have never doubted your ability to manage our NT which is why I have always supported you in the election. I have never questioned your selection policies with the realisation that you know what's best for each game. And I have always appreciated your comments (via bb-mail) on the progress of my sole player in the NT, as well as the required direction on training. Goes to show that you know what you're doing.
But as NT you are certainly in the limelight, whether you like it or not. With the job comes responsibility. And I have always maintained that a huge portion of the position (both NT and U-21) requires the incumbent(s) to reach out to the community and respond. Whether you like it or not, there will be times when you may have to defend certain decisions, publicly or privately. To be honest I am not really interested to know the reasons why you pick one player over another. That's your prerogative as you have put it. But the moment that decision is being questioned publicly, I think as NT you will have to respond. This is my personal view. I'm always for transparency after all it's a public office.
Let me give you an example of what I have been doing as U-20 coach in another popular online football management game. I have been sending out periodic newsletters to all team owners of players in the U-20 squad to inform them of the progress of the team as well as changes in team requirements. My purpose was to have a tool or channel of communication with the team owners so that they knew my direction and could then planned accordingly in their training. I have always taken the view that as NT and U-21 coaches, one has to involve the community. This is not a solitary responsibility. The entire national community succeeds and fails alongside you.
That's just my opinion not a criticism. And if Ahmoi decides to run for another term, he has my vote.
