You can vote everyone you like. I strongly believe that right now Cypriots have the proper experience to take over the NT's, and it doesnt bother me if anyone knows the skills of my players.

More important for me is the community, and i am sure that if one of us will be elected it will brings only good things, and it will really help the communication, something essential for me.

How do we state if someone has a good reputation? By its teams strenght? By the wins he makes? in which divisio he is in? By which games he has won? By how good his Cypriot players are? How energetic he is in the cyprus community? All the above? What are the criteria?
If someone is in division 2 it doesnt mean he is not a good coach, if someone losses games cause his team is not a super team it doesnt mean he is not a good coach. If someone made a gamble and it paid once it doesnt mean he is a good coach, if someone played the obious and it didnt work it doesnt mean he is not a good coach, if someone has a relatively new team and he is not winning it doesnt mean he is not a good coach. I assume we all agree on the above.

So what should the criteria be? Not by how much the skills of a player of his increase in a season as some managers train one position and other two positions but by how much he knows about tactics and training. How well can he anticipate how to train a player and reach him to his top limit. How well can he influence the rest of the managers to work their domestic players, how much he is respected in the community for his character, how wiling he is to help other and advise with out any interest. How well he understands tactics not just in approximations. All the above to me they state a brilliant coach worthy of the NT and any NT. And ofcourse how much time he is willing to sacrifice for the NT.

With a few words? STEVE MAKIS. I think the last 2 words says it all.

ok. How will a Cypriot manager help the NT in a way a foreign one (for example Steve Makis) wouldnt? In what ways? You said communication. I assume you dont mean speaking in greek cause most of us speak english very well and the rest of us that do not, is not a problem cause we can give the coach a hand by translating. I dont think that is a problem.
How would we benefit?

That conversation should be continued to the debate threat. Go ahead and discuss there.
