First of all thanks for the comliments and some facts:

After this season, we have the election for the NT-Coach.. for the election of the new U21-coach we have to wait for the end of the 11th season.

@Taintum ... what do you think about the senior-NT-coach-job? I noticed, that you wanted to be the U21-coach, but the next election will be the senior coach. -- For me it would be interesting to work again together with you (I think, the 2nd time would be even much better ;-) )!

I would like to do the U21-job, but the senior-NT is interesting, too. Another possibility would be to help a "younger/new" coach with his job.

Hi guys.

I've been reading all your posts and have watched what's going on to get an idea if i should run again. I really enjoy coaching my national team (I am Scottish but joined US league because there was no Scottish league at the time!!) so I will very likely run again (but not against a preferred candidate)

I have to say though, on activity levels, Bock or Taintum probably have more time to invest in the overall management of it. I've been using really time-efficient tools like BB-Scouter which really is amazing, you dont have to click around trying to find all the Scottish players, you can just get list of them all and their respective salary/skills. Brilliant! And i would continue to use this method, and wouldn't need/want a support team.

If there is a high level of activity, im not sure on the input that people will want to have. I've always been a bit of a 'put a rabbit out of a hat' kind of manager when it comes to tactics, and it wouldn't do to discuss them in the forum!

I'll tell you one thing though, i will find the time to make a new logo/banner for the Scotland team! I made the Canada one amonst others so i feel a bit lazy that i haven't updated ours yet. check out http://s56.photobucket.com/albums/g166/calumt1/BuzzerBeat...

So, my 2 cents would be choose, as a community one of the following... Taintum for full NT-coach, with Bock (and me if desired) giving input. Possibly voting Bock for U21 next season. Or.. voting me for another term, promising i'll put more time into it, but it will unlikely be as much as the other 2 guys. But maybe i'll do a better job picking the team/tactics? Haha, i dont know about that! :D

I'm totally down for whatever you think best, and wish the best of luck to anyone running.

Thanks for your support and time. Personally I am not that interested in running our NT but hopefully we'll have a good coach anyway. I'm more than sure of that. At the moment I prefer to work finding young prospects and I'll wait for a chance next season. We know both Calum and Bock and they did a good job in the past so I think that whever will be our coach is very important for him to have some support with suggestions, new prospects, training. If Calum thinks that Bock will suit more the job than him personally I'm ready to support that. If both of you would like to stand his chance just give us an idea about your involvment level in NT, so that we can see what to do. Obviously the fact that both of you have been on this forum and interested in Scotland gives us a good picture of the situation. As far as I can I'll try to give advice and help (when I have some to give) to our NT. Let's say I like to be a senator...

Just a quick consideration: Rick James has a manager approval rated at 0%...worst ever. No comment about that. Hope things will change ...

Wow - that's quite impressive! (Or should that be unimpressive..?)

Anyway, the whole thing isn't good.

But I like, that the users are consistent... and he really got 0%! --- Probably all the scotish users, who are disapointed should bb-mail him!?

Waste of time.You get no reply...

No campaigning until elections are open, sorry.
