Or as I suggested, abandon the requirement of having to be approved by an association as a condition of entering a tournament. The approval of the National Association can be formalised at registration before the draw, plays starts, what ever, it should be the players or the players chosen representative (which in many cases probably would be the respective national association) who is in control of the entry, for the sake of a more professional and indepedent sport.
Hmm, my thinking was.. ..even if Mr. Roslin decides to sue BAM, for who knows how much money, if he still can't participate and play in future tourneys, then what's the use?? Is he going to keep on suing?? What's worse is that, it could turn out even more "ugly" and both sides will be in for somekind of a feud ..It's unfortunate, but i'm sure all parties are trying their best to avoid this "showdown".. Btw, i'm also wondering, is Roslin's case the only one that has been brought up?? Have there been other cases similar to this??..If not, then my feeling is, BAM is probably singling him out and Roslin is definitely sensing himself being isolated/singled-out(for who knows what real reason(s)).. And personally, i don't see any good reason(s) for BAM to not let him go, if Roslin decides to severe all ties w/ BAM..
Is this at all possible? If so, wouldn't Roslin have taken such action after the second or even third BAM blunder? I can see many players choosing this avenue if it was an option.
I did bring this up earlier but I guess we'll never know. BAM's already shot itself in the foot by admitting to this error. It's not likely they're going to continue to cook their own hide by owning up to more ineptitude. And no one else on BC seems to know of anymore similar cases.
Bad,bad BAM, how can they discriminate against poor Roslin. Dont they know that there is a law against this ?Who are their lawyers? They should practise meritocracy across the board, just like the government. Now the whole world who have no knowledge of the actual going-ons are debating this issue. Yes sue them!
No, not currently, it is a WBF regulation. If WBF is serious about badminton becoming more professional it needs to serious consider this move though. Happened before? Not sure, probably, but as people have hinted it seems an amazing run of bad "luck" that BAM made this mistake 4 times with a fairly high profile player.......couldn't comment any further.....
You, Bbn and me are in the minority opinion that it is a conspiracy. Why do people think it's a mistake or incompetence of BAM?
pity roslin... anyway... i respect his decision to bring dis issue to court... gud luck to all shuttlers 4 next tuesday... s'pore open!
How many Thomas & Uber Cups are there in PBSI cabinet? Compare it to BAM? And how many Indonesian players have won major titles for the last decade vs Malaysia? Call that incompetent???
I don't think he meant incompetence in the sense of achievement. More in the area of adminstrative decision making (or lack thereof)
With all those trophies in PBSI's cabinet and consistently producing top world class players PBSI's decision making /administration is incompetent???? Dude, if that is incompetent then BAM is a mickey mouse club.
They have already apologised. Chapter is closed. Anyway, what do you expect from BAM? It is the same people who sent the shuttlers to campaign for votes in Machap. When you have clowns running the association what do you get? .... monkey business la.
Lets see it this way, the BAM is sincere in its wish to create a world class professional outfit, that's why it employs pros rather than politicians to run it. Compare it to say FAM, dominated by politicians. Roslin has done remarkably well by going overseas and fending for himself, how many of his people are capable of that, certainly not his bankrupt bosses and cronies.
indian association is still head strog.. hey all players: at least BAM has the courtesy to appologize their mistake of neglecting the player's name( although it doesnot sound logic for how can a country association can forget his player's name?)but the indian association is still not accept their mistake..maybe once the goct stop their funds to them then thewy will come down for if they dont get the govt funds how they can their bread and butter? all these kind of associations should be banned..
good spirit!!yeah..it's very unfair for him. saw him play recently. He really trid his best in every match..keep up!!
dear players: indian badminton association is not lesser than malaysian's.. malaysian association just "neglected" rosilin's name...while indian association wanted to finish all top players's career...they are not regretting at all..for them to eat funds are more important than produce a player..gopi has also joined this elite group.. watch this column..
Guttayelan, Pls dont hijack the thread! This thread is about Roslin and the treatment metted out by BAM. I understand how the badminton association works in India and i am sorry things are not that well now. In plain truth, roslin did not make friends at the right place and the easiest way to screw him is not send entries to tournaments which would then take away his money making oppurtunities. So people who think a mere sorry is enough or its a micky mouse business, i should say that it is a well thought out decision. Btw, how long does a court decision take in Malaysia? I am sure it would take its own sweet time... Best of luck roslin but i think its better to make friends than try to get money from BAM.
