Thanks for the forward.

This issue is really dear to my heart.  Hiring foreign coaches simply stifle
the development of the coaching aspect of the game back home.  Sang was good
enough to lead the Gambian team to the final game of the Zone II tourney,
where we lost to a second string Senegalese team.  On the way to the final
game, we managed to beat Mali, hosts of the upcoming ANC, in the semi-final
game.

Not only this, but hiring foreign coaches alludes to the fact that our
national soccer association has no faith in our local coaches, and this is
certainly not the way to inspire the concept of improvement and upward
mobility in the locals.

I say give Sang and the local coaches a chance and forget about the expensive
foreign coach that we simply cannot afford.
