I know that, but, nobody uses Let Coach Decide with a set lineup because it isn't efficient

Sparky I can honestly say that I think your a decent manager and did an ok job with the U21 team. My concerns are:

1) You constantly say that the team has horrible games shape. While very difficult this is part of the U 21 managers position. Contacting managers and helping them understand the game is important.

2) Your next defence is that no body responds. Well I believe this to be tru and suspect that it is a result of your age and your approach. Most 12 year olds are not going to be well received when contacting adults or teenagers. Not only that but most adults are not going to take advice from a "kid" about an Internet game.

3) Your father is very challenging and continues to make your position about him. For example his passive aggressive I quit post in the debate thread. If he truly does take his ball and go home you will be far more respected as the au21 manager.

Unfortunately these three things make me believe it is time to elect someone else in hopes that the U21 team can get back to its former glory.

As I have said you are a good manager and I respect your efforts its just time for a change.

1) Damian feels the same way.

2) Almost everyone who responds to me listens but, plenty of people just don't open their mail.
Your next defence is that no body responds. Well I believe this to be tru and suspect that it is a result of your age and your approach.

As for the scouting post, I would have the player's name as the title.

The post looks like this:
I am the U21 manager of Canada and I would appreciate it if you sent me an update on his skills.
Also after that I very often write about how much I appreciate it that they train players.
Then I give out my opinions.


3) My dad has told me that he will never post in Canada's threads again.
If he would still be talking on this forum, he would reply to your post.
But he isn't.

1 and 2 are things that if someone else gets elected than they will have these troubles too.
3 is done with.

1). That is a crummy answer. We are talking about players who are already on the team not random managers. If a player on the team has not listened to you in advance, they probably don't warrant being on the team.

2). clearly people aren't listening. Perhaps you need to change your approach?

3). It's erie how similar your posting styles are. wow!

My dad isn't the difference between the U21 succeeding and failing.
It is the players.
All of the other countries have studs and we don't.
I can't help some managers who don't know a thing about BB.
What happened to this post:



pugs, we know you have talent, so show us you can take the reigns without papa and you have my vote


You said you were going to vote for me.
What happened to the guy who you wanted to vote for?
Now I am the 3rd person to vote for?

What Happened?

I agree the players last season were not great but nothing has changed from now compared to when Kumiko and Bballin had great success. Canada still has the same amount of users as we did then so the responsibility lies on the shoulders of the NT managers. That is the biggest part of the job that you don't see.

Anyone can set a lineup and determine which games are easy (in your words). The difficult part of the position is engaging the community and getting people excited, that is where you have failed. The U21 manager needs to be well enough liked and respected that people actually will listen and respond.

IMO this is the area that other managers have a big advantage over you.
