do yu understand whats going orn?

I might well ask you the same question because in your little world ALL coaches are bad, wicked folks bent on detroying everything and everyone.

Flower is working fine getting along by not imposing himself as Fletcher did and Moores started doing which pissed off Pietersen.

Having pointed out Flower's good work with England you changing your tune.

KP is something of a loose cannon and you have no idea what "pissed" Pietersen off - it does not take much to piss Pietersen off. So your attempt to say that the coach is to blame is quite ridiculous.

mapoui wrote:but the flower phenomena is one in a sea of crap with head coaching. and flower will no be there forever.

Look, there are many others besides Flower. It was your contention that ALL head coaches are bad and wicked.

Nice try but I am not sure if you really know what caused the emergence of Kanhai etc.

man..wat are yu reading..what I say or what you think I say?

teh power relation I said: concentrate all the power in a coaches hand and you creat a sitaion ofr abuse of all sorts and a defeat of the purpose of coachng and the purpose of the team..

power corruts and absolute power corrupts absoluely.

I also pointed out that such concentratin of power in fewer hands is a procductof the general concentraion of power in the world where from the top down we see the same phenomena..monopoly.

monopoly has a plan for all that goes on in th world then that reflects its own nature..concentration of power, monopoly, dictatorship. we are seeing less and less democracy in the world when what we need is more...ful transparency in the way all thngs ard done...greater participation in the process of society and decision-making

thats what i have been saying. if at the moment flower is an exception he is just one man representing a certain performance that became possible after the failure of 2 monoploy types Fletcher and Mooores.

but no matter how successful flower is he cant change the underlying reality of a power relation that eliminates democracy and concentrates power in a pair of hands. that ultmately defeats every conceivable decent goal we can have in plating the game of cricket.

monoply is the tool of a concentrated dictatoral power. democrcy..the opposite..is what we need
