    Wishful thinking perhaps. With all the silly politics in play (again and again), it's highly unlikely they will make such a move. With this being Malaysia's best performance in Olympics, I'm sure Morten Frost's job is safe and secure.

    If MAS loses this one, then their MD Goh/Tan will feel more pressure to deliver. OTOH, if MAS wins, their MD will be more motivated and inspired. That's how it works for the first time gold winners, psychologically, I believe.

    I hope MAS equalizes , then the decider will be a battle of nerves, and it can be anybody's game, the side with fewer errors to win.

    With Indonesia being a badminton powerhouse, I wonder if INA will even consider a Chinese supremo. Face-saving, ego, etc all come into play.
