Thanks for your support and your post.

I think you're right we have to "wait" for the future, and we should start to "bulid" the future team right NOW!

The problem of the senior NT is, that all they players are about 25-27y and it looks like that no-one gets training. Cause the team is nearly at the same level like two seasons ago, when I finished as the NT-coach.

=> I will try to find new/ young players, probably I will do a bit the work of RickJames, cause as we all know he doesn't care about the U21.

=> All the time, if there is a scotish player at the transfer-list, we should try to "bring him home to Scotland" or to a manager like Culum, who wants to help Scotland.

The people have spoken - congrats! :)

I have a policy of only signing Scottish players. I'm currently training a batch of guards aged 20, 21, 21 & 22. Hopefully this will be of use to the NT in 4-8 seasons time...

I don't think I'll be takingon any high wage players for the next couple of seasons, but if any hot prospects <23yo appear then give me a shout and I may be able to shuffle the pack.

Hmm, thanks for the reminder, I havent started xmas shopping yet either!

Hear hear!

Good job and congrats on the election. As always, i'll keep an eye out for young Scotsmen.

Good luck on the re-building effort, i'm sure you're the best man for the job. Now I need to concentrate on getting to the NBBA (that final loss really hurt last season!)

I still don't know which players you're calling up but the best thing would be to leave some young players to Rick James if he reply to you and at least he set a standard line-up. My suggestion is to keep some old strong players to keep the main structure of the team. I think you need my Centers (at least this year) and Arnold Forbes (2319489). I don't think some youngsters are ready now for NT, but they would fit perfectly in U-21. Just my suggestion.

You're right, that the youngstars are not good enough for the senior team. But if Rick James doesn't care about the U21, than I will call up the youngstars, so their managers will see, that their players are goog for the NT.

I think it makes no sense, if I open for every single game a new thread, when so less people are interested in it...

so... I'll use now this blog for news from our NT and for some ideas concerning our games.

Of course it's not nice to lose the first three games, but the other teams were to good for us. I think with Turkey it will be the same and Crna Gora it will be the same, so I'll play TIE, but than we'll try to win the game against Az.
