    But there is no indication of his working for MAS badminton outside of BAM either, so far. What is holdig him back from allowing his mind to be known?

    Misbun needs time for his family as well

    .
    It's not only that this BAM's request that Misbun has to consider. Misbun's wife is quite ill; and Misbun needs time for his family as well.

    Let's not rush Misbun too much.

    Not many BCers and BAM members understand how tough Misbun is going through in his patch of difficulties currently.

    If I were Misbun, I would take my time to decide. BAM and the rest of the world can wait.

    Yes, chris what you said is true :)

    He needs time for his family as well and no way he is going to come back with the same condition.;)

    Poor performance director still thinks misbun is easy to handle,

    With some minor adjustment can bring him back..lol

    What misbun is doing now is probably best for the nation :)

    Only when the sea is calm, one can see the horizon

    So it's no point going against the waves :)



    He wasn't patient enough during the Korea open :D

    So misbun is giving him the last dose :D

    Seriously, they are in contact by phone everyday :)

    Tsb reports to misbun and I think they are working fine together :)

    Wow, Misbun working for free?

    BAM sending CTC messengers to negotiate with Misbun?

    My guess is a bomb will be dropped after AE and BAM will never be the same again.

    BAM is interested in 'National Interest'

    .
    I don't think that LCW and Misbun think much about money, as compared to their love for Badminton and their inter-personal relationship.

    But, I know that BAM is interested in 'National Interest'. :):):)

    To me, 'National Interest' is a political term used to distract players/coaches who love Badminton for Badminton's sake.

    Right, money isn't everything for them especially misbun,

    2 years of coaching against 8 years and both end up with the same amount of money

    And he prefer the 8 years :confused:

    How many of you here would go for the 8 years? :D

    I know what you mean but this is totally different from being physically there with your charge and giving him the confidence and the necessary tips on the spot. Compare this to phone calls and you can see the great disparity!

    I would assume MS won't be with LCW at the forthcoming AE and if he meets LD again ..........????????

    2011 All England: Misbun won't be going with LCW

    .
    You are correct; Misbun won't be going with LCW to the 2011 All England.

    I wonder whether LD will be there too. But since he is now playing the German Open, it would probably be for warming up to his main target - the AE.

    If LCW should meet up with LD again, on paper LCW will be at a disadvantage since his mentor MS will be missing, albeit phone contacts will again be aplenty, although as I've said, they will be less effective. But I don't think LD's sifu Tang XH will be there either. :D

    And LCW is defending his AE crown too, right?

    .
    Yes, both of them, Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei, will be participating at the 2011 All England Championships.

    Let's hope that they will get to face each other again. :):):)

    Please don't tell me all other players would be punished by BAM (in this KPI method)

    .
    And so I shall come back to this topic - 'BAM to implement KPI for coaches and shuttlers'.

    At the 2011 German GPG (held this week), only KKK/TBH and WMC managed to reach the quarter-finals.

    Please don't tell me that all other players would be punished by BAM (in this KPI method), although I know it's only 1 out of 1 tournament thus far.
    :p:p:p

    Well, the German Open has just concluded and LD beat compatriot CJ convincely to snatch the MS title.

    LD seems to be in great form and condition to do battle in this week's AE and if he is seeded #2, he is slated to meet LCW, the reigning AE Champion.

    Let's hope that with a week's rest since he did not play in the GO, LCW will also be in good condition to face LD in the final, unless either of them is knocked out beforehand.

    If LCW can slay all opponents including LD and win the AE crown again, he is sending a strong signal to MS that he can be on his own and MS can take all his time deciding whether to return to the BAM fold. Then both MS and LCW will have no further pressure on the subject and the latter can concentrate on preparing intensively for London Olympics 2012.

    You can do it LCW! :)

    BAM is still making LCW feeling the pressure (to defend the AE title)

    .
    IMHO, BAM is still making LCW feeling the pressure (to defend the AE title). :):):)

    About Misbun, he just wants to help LCW (via phone this time) to win again.

    As many BCers have noticed; Misbun never puts on any pressure on LCW. :):):)

    Maybe by not showing up and be on the spot to help LCW, MS is trying to avoid the pressure building up on him. If he has accepted BAM terms he would be hard pressed to produce results, ie, to ensure LCW wins the first Olympic gold for MAS. :eek:

    How can MS help LCW effectively with phone calls? Are you serious? Can MS watch LCW live in action? Even if he could, can he phone LCW during the intervals to advise him? If not, what sort of impact can MS' calls have on LCW? Before and after the match, pre- and post-match analysis but not during the match?:D:D:D

    On the other hand, LCW has expected and accepted the BAM pressure. I think he is trying hard to internalize all the expectations and be on his own to face the pressure without MS. Certainly a professional psychologist can help him diffuse the pressures and condition himself for the final goal - the Olympic gold and not the AE. ;)

    .
    A simple suggestion from Misbun to Lee Chong Wei could be;

    For today's match, (recently) Lin Dan has shown that he has not been performing well at Netplay. Therefore, play more Netplay rallies with him. :):):)

    Tactics is a plan of action for a match

    .
    Then LD would win. :):):)

    Tactics is a plan of action for a match. It is not a guarantee to win. ;););)

    But with MS personally around, he could help LCW change tactics!
