A case to keep Tietjens

Dear Editor,

Re: The worst performance ever 

No. Tietjens should be kept on for 4 years to get the team to the Tokyo Olympics. If he can get the team to the Olympics and wins the gold, then none of these losses matters. 

It is a rebuilding year.

Besides, nobody else can coach this side. Local coaches failed and McGrath also failed. His supporters now hold up the Paris leg win as if it was some kind of world cup victory. One victory in Paris in two years of losses isn’t all that great.

Time to stop sacking coaches. Sacking coaches obviously does not work. The aim now for this current team should be to retain a place in the World Series for next year.
