kevjohn ... I a little confused ... are you not happy with your new personal assistant?

Usually you would have made comment by now ... not being short of comment and the like.

Sorry David48.... I just cant keep up with the comments that I have made about the comments that have been commented on.....

Anyway.....JT should be able to handle 2 positions in the team as they are only assistant positions (NTS....did I get that right)

Which other TV members would be an asset to the team?

I am hoping to find a role for Bendix

I think George, my mate, would be a great asset....clap2.gif

I would feel threatened by his presence; he might want to be boss

Nah...I tell him he will be assistant to the assistant manager and, if he doesn't like that, then he will be the "cover" man

My apologies in advance ... I have to out a member here.

A tried and true trusted member ... the sort of bloke you begrudgingly allow your sister to date.

Frankly, I believe that no-one has noticed to date.

It's been a recurring theme ...

I am appalled that you would out a member when there may be children perusing this forum; I'd have thought JT's presence might have discouraged you... "no-one has noticed to date?" Except your sister, presumably...

Also, please feel free to contribute other relevant material such as photos of potential cheer-leaders

SC:

"Analiene has helpfully identified a whole bunch of other issues that cricket will help address:

http://www.thaivisa....25#entry5337923"

Indeed, that is very helpful; she really is a breath of fresh air

We should try to find an appropriate role for her within the team

Thailand Criket's "Analystic Problem Conversion Manager"

Indeed, a perfect fit

Just one thing Boss……. Who is going to analyze the "Analystic Problem Conversion Manager"

I nominate Streetcowboy with Jingthing as his assistant.

This will promote JT, to a more senior roll, allowing him to participate in the promotion of why “Thailand Needs Cricket“ thus annulling any negatives that he may have.

So I've got JT to help me look after Aneliane; I can see me needing more knees if I'm also to keep the coach under control and drive the bus at the same time

TV Cricket - Anyone can bowl - balls to the lot of you!

The popularity of sports depends on where you are.

I think young kids play cricket in some posh international school in Thailand. Thai people know and play tra-kraw which I think is popular only in southeast asia. It is taught in every school and I also learned and played it, hahaha.

I was just wondering, why did you say "hahaha"?

You do realize cricket has the (accurate) image as a sport of COMMONWEALTH nations? Thais have this kind of "thing" about not ever being colonized by the west.

That is exactly why this plan will work; the open-minded Thais have infinite potential to reap the benefits from cricket

Conversely, you have identified why the introduction of cricket would be met with too much resistance to be effective in fixing America

Thanks again for your interest in this thread (and implicitly your support for my wider underlying plan)

Given your determination to identify potential pitfalls, maybe you would like to answer the following question...

Are there are problems / imperfections with Thailand that cannot be fixed by cricket?...

JT - did you have a chance to think about my questions above?...

Would these suffuce?

I get sooooooo many questions thrown at me that I will have to have a FAQ page set up.

I've almost forgotten who the Boss is.....sad.png
