NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

In the past, some user had been disgruntled with the results and alleged that there is a lack of transparency of the U21/NT coaches ran things. How will you change this perception? Does not only utilizing a small group continue the policy that lacks transparency? How will the rest of the USA users hold the coaches accountable? How will you win back the those who had made these allegations?


As I said before, the small group is only for communicating with owners of potential u21 players. I'm talking 18,19,20 yos. Our U21 is not opaque at all. If you put forward a minimal amount of effort, you can have your voice heard. Everybodies input into the game is important. We can't be super transparent or it would be too easy for other teams to take advantage of it. The communication has to be in something of a secure channel. The best input that can be given it the interpretation of data scouted from opposing teams. I'd welcome any sort of idea people have to make the discussions and team easier to access than the message board, I'm just not sure what that would be.

What I would like to know if there are five managers registered to run why has only one shown up on the forum? Honestly this has been a pretty poor showing for the USA.

I'm interested in running but can't honestly say I would be able to focus on the team enough to be fair to the USA community. I'm probably better suited supporting whoever runs at this point. Maybe next elections my mind will change.

I would very much like to ask the other 4 managers the same questions that Jelme answered.

Would Coco or ChewBrian like to come back?


Just to clarify... we always get a lot of people the register but aren't serious about running. I'm not sure why-- maybe they click the wrong button by mistake. But I wouldn't bother worrying about them until they post a speech. And the lack of interest in US elections is frankly nothing new. I was happy to see we drummed up some interest with the NT predictions this season, but doesn't look like that's translated into more election interest.
