Well, it's that time of the season again, election time!
I've been in charge for the NT for 3 seasons now, and I believe that the team has progressed nicely.
This season, we were unfortunate in that we were in one of the WC groups 'penalised' by the ranking system, so we had practically no chance of qualifying for the WC. That said, the team did well by finishing 3rd in the group behind Poland and Germany but ahead of Serbia who were, on paper, marginally stronger than us. The only disappointing result was the draw against Nigeria.
For next season, my plan would be to work on improving our ranking in an effort to get us into the 3rd basket for the next WC draw. We've got a lot of catching up to do, so this won't be easy. Much will also depend on whether or not another Mini World Cup and U21 World Cup is organised. We did well in both competitions last season, losing by a late goal in the QF of the MWC to the eventual champions, Uruguay and also qualifying for the U21 WC.
Another focus has to be on improving certain sections of our NT squad. We've been lucky to find a young keeper to train and I've sent out the word to many keeper trainers. Hopefully Khanye will get a decent price for him, and a good trainer buys him. Our striker force is in need of upgrading, but that is well on track. Midfield is a concern that needs to be worked on.
My Plus access will continue for the next season, and I would like to continue my work for the NT. Please head over to the voting booth and cast your vote. :)

I think that Marcl now is the best coach for SA. team progress, cooperation with club managers and Youth SA Plan is on very high level.
My vote is obvious.
You ahve and continue to do a great job.
