turned out that Flower was just as big ah piece of crap as Otis Gibson is.
was he who hired Gibbo fuh england wasn't it :?

flower ends up being deceitful and destructive taking Pietersen down with him..leaving england the poorer for that :( :(

he also took Carberry down with him too :shock:

although Flower might have been the one to select Carberry late in his career he is certainly the one who left him out of ODI and T/20 for which Carberry seemed very suited for :roll: :roll:

head coaching is the pits. it attracts the worst kind of people as I have argued previously. there is one big voice here that loves head coaches and used to hold Flowers up as exemplary :o :o

exemplary yes..of the real rot that head coaches are :x :x :x

Get rid of all Coaches and analysts, let the Captain and the team do it all.

15 travel and maybe supported by a manager and at a stretch a Physio. Then again ice baths and let them rub each other like they used to cut each others hair.

Besides all this coaching shit does not work for any teams across the world so you can only support eradication of all coaching and support staff.

Flower was great when his team was winnin and when the shit hit deh fan he was exposed as rubbish.

Go back to basics and banish 99% of support staff.

Have 4 extra players tour or in squad to get experience. Team manager jus dey to make sure players happy, hotels booked, meals and transport on time, kit clean and such like.

Yuh eh need no damn coach....head or bottom coach.

West Indies win with players a lackey and Waight to rub yuh up.

Discipline and curfew.

When yuh not tourin/ playin drink yuh rass sick.....

well...there has been a whole lot of discussion in these pages about the head coach and good conclusions have been arrived at on the issue..conclusions that did not include the absurdity I see above here

the problem is in the position itself. make a good say on the issue if you can. can you :?

A head coach is based on the premise even the highest of international players are not competant enough in their roles to carry out their given tasks without supervision.

Almost a structured learning or school type environment and, I presume, not one many posters here would be familiar with in their own field of work.

I admit that every day provides a new opportunity to learn new things but its an idiot argument, the truth is, who gets cuss when a player cant score runs or take wickets, or even field competently.
