Maybe so.. I didn't see that match so I'm just taking Taufik's word for it. He doesn't seem bitter towards Simon for losing against him anyway.
I knew whole story..TH decided not to fight in that match...it is not Simon...someone else that made him upset as he is playing under INA's flag..anyway..I am not going to detail...basically TH gave that match to Simon and he wanted to see if Simon could beat Gade or not... "that person" should know that Vita/AG or Alvent/TH are basically under PBSI, not under National team...I think TH should not let "that" affected him...he did "mention something: during interval, etc...all INA players were really..really quiet at that time.
"That person" did not do to TH only but to Alvent/AG and Vita/AG....Honestly he did not do it on purpose..in his mind that National team is PBSI...actually the whole meaning of PBSI is that all players in Indonesia are PBSI's member...
Aduh.... should we still talk about this topic? I mean, if this will make we feel negative for some person, before we really feel it, we could stop rite? Just like huangkwokhau said, 'that person did not do it on purpose'... .
Well I don't think discussing it would be a problem talking about it if it was an accident, but I still don't really have any idea what happened. Did a match commentator say Taufik wasn't playing for Indonesia or something?
Taufik Hidayat and some other players are no longer playing for the Indonesia National Team, but, they are still a member of the Indonesia Badminton Association (PBSI).
^^It's the other way around..^^ ..PBSI probably wish if Taufik could donate some of his money to sponsor PBSI's pension program..
Continue here.. ..that's a fair enough reason. But did he really mean "he wasn't able to play his game", in straight 3 matches?? 3 different opportunities??.. ..all i'm gonna say is, you probably haven't read much of my posts re TH. You probably don't know if i'm a TH supporter or not...
so the draw didn't goes his way, his opponents didn't let him play his way. Yes, Mr TH, life is tough outside the tender loving care of PBSI lol. U r an independent pro now, it goes with the job.
^^Dear Mr. cooler..^^ ..if you don't mind, since you've been here a very long time and have seen my posts re TH, would you tell the other BCers (esp. our new comer, mayjun) if i'm a TH supporter or not?..or would you say i'm one of TH's critical supporters??..
