I feel your a close 2nd to Dwight Coward on my standards I love your effort in speech but will you deliver if you win??? Yes there is a major disagreement in the rifle between on site and off site people. I heard off site is dead now... Dwight Coward has already proven he can lead a national team you don't remember??? He was very competitive with his teams and is something we are missing now with people taking the easy way out.

Good to see you again, too coachlambini!

I don’t truly believe the “disconnect” between onsite and offsite will ever be truly co-existent though I do think it has the chance to dramatically improve. Some people just aren’t interested and you really can’t fault them or do much about it. I do believe reaching out to more and more users and gettingthem involved with the NT whether that be training or being apart of the staff would be a positive result.

I also don’t necessarily agree with the fact that we don’t have much youth developing for the NT as I know plenty of users with HOF+ potential who have been on the training plans for the National team. A lot of these players don’t make the U21 team simply because there training plans don’t always coordinate with the U21 team.

Good answer Stabby

You're certainly free to vote for him!

However setting a lineup is not the only job that the NT manager has which is pretty much the only thing you need to do for your club team

I may. (Other than a couple of old league rivals who have run in the past, I generally don't vote frequently). I just think the whole "you wouldn’t have made it out of “D5” in my country" argument is exceedingly hollow when you're discussing candidacy for a job that' much more closely parallels the B3 experience than the D5 experience, and doubly so considering what kind of talent it takes to win the former and the exceptional lack of talent that would make it possible to fail at getting out of D5 when that was an option.

Are you sure that's not a minor issue for some1 whose been their???

Got my vote

Here’s my questions to all.

1) as NT manager what do you do when it’s a crucial game and all of the best players are in poor GS because all of their managers played them 90+ minutes the previous week?

2) What do you do when you have a few managers at NBBA level that think they know best and believe you should do a certain tactic however it continuously fails because truly there aren’t enough players built for it in our pipeline ( that sustain good GS).

3) What do you do when you know you are overly matched but all the fellow Americans continue to believe we have the best team and can beat everyone?

4) What do you do when you look into the pipeline and see that we only have a few great players compared to a whole team of great players for the other NTs?

The idea of voting for a foreigner is anathema to me, but I’m voting for Sahand for the following reasons.

1. He’s a winner. He’s won every championship imaginable with NT-level players, which implies quite a few things about GE knowledge, player builds, etc.
2. He’s the only person running who is capable of owning an NT player, salary-wise. That may seem like a small deal, but it’s important for there to be at least a small group of owners willing to purchase American NT players for GS purposes, including the US manager.
3. He’ll command instant respect from anyone in the world who owns our NT players, due to his prestige.

To win at the national level, you need a small group of owners at the D1 and D2 levels who are committed to training MVP and HOF prospects from 22 to 26-27. When we were at our peak, Coco, Brian, Wozz, and a handful of others were doing just that. Bringing the forum back to life will do nothing for the NT. Discord is worthless. No one running has articulated anything remotely close to a step by step process to rebuild prominence.

Thus, I’m voting for Sahand.
