Well I hope that I'm more than just a last resort, but I appreciate the support. I don't take these things lightly .

I can confirm Boro politely asked me if I was standing and only registered when I told him no, he was very polite. I can also confirm that Music Chick is fully able to do the role for our NT and has also always been polite. I wish both candidates the best of luck.

I can't claim to know Music Chick at all well but we've had contact in the past, and also just before the election. She'd clearly read last season's thread and knew I was thinking of standing. In the end I decided I didn't want the job and am very comfortable with the idea of her being our NT coach.

I find myself in the unusual position of being in general agreement with Lemon. I would add to his comments that the community should be able to speak freely to their NT manager, that person should be responsible to them and that I believe makes the relationship incompatible with the position of GM. I certainly would not be comfortable conversing on the forum with a GM in those circumstances.

1. How do you plan to engage with the BB England community? I am always open for businesss... wait that sounded wrong. What I mean is that I have an open door policy. You have feedback, as long as it's presented with respect, you will get the same back from me. I'm quietly active, so you probably will hear more from me in the form of BB mails, as opposed to loud forum posts. That being said, some occasions call for forum posts ie. big victories, losses, community/player shout-outs. I seem like a lone she-wolf, but with my open-door policy comes opportunities for anyone who wants to help with the direction of the NT. Leave no stone unturned!!!

2. Are you running for any other NT this season? Definitely not running for another NT. I want to run in an English-speaking country and the Canada ship has already passed for me. You guys have a great reputation for being brutally honest, but also of showing support to any NT manager if they show you the same support. I hope to earn your trust, not only by trying to gain surprising victories(when possible), but also through communication and trying to make more BB friends.


3. Do you think you will need to have some staff to help you out? Are you actively planning to have someone else help out? If so how are they going to be selected? Yes, I kind of mentioned this up top, but definitely want staff to help out. It's not a question of need, it's a matter of want. I want to learn about the managers I am working for, so I only wish to employ English staff. How will they be selected? Well, i started to create a hard-core application for those interested...(joke--bad one though)... anyone who shows me interest, I am open to. It's a small BB nation, so no need to alienate anyone. I realize there are some that may not agree in here, but my job is to attempt to unite as many as possible.

answers 4 and 5 will come later. I am at work. Hope this is a good start. thank you for the questions.
