Voted for Someone else option.
Reason:
- Coach Pont himself doesn't want the job (as he indicated in the poll)

I used a revised quote from the film at DG press conferences "We are here to entertain"

Nice..someone who gets it

I just wanna point something out...to the people saying they want a batting first HC. Why can't we have a batting specialist for that void?

I think discriminating a coach based on their specialty is silly. HC should be more about leadership, structure, and game plan. Whoever demonstrates those qualities the best should get the job.

To be honest, seeing our performance with the past 3 coaches, I don't think we need to worry too much about who takes over. Team is at a point where they clearly have a good base of talent. No matter who takes over, I can't see it getting much worse from here.

A coach can only do so much.

"leadership, structure, and game plan"

Exactly why I named Kelly Brook as the head coach. She leads. She defo has the structure. And boy I'd love to see her game plans.

Isnt it ironic how the thread question is asking if you want Ian Pont to be HC of Bangladesh and Ian Pont himself doesnt want to do it.

I 100% agree with WorldCup11. I hope Ian Pont is thinking that way. He probably doesn want the job now but when he does get an offer to be HC for Bangladesh then he will say yes and do the job with passion.

Ian is definitely thinking that way too. Please read the last line of his reply to my post

If BCB doesnt make him an offer or if Ian Pont does not want the job then what we want wont mean anything

Yes.
Ian is knowledgeable and methodical.
BD cricket is not an unknown territory to Ian.Besides I have a feeling he cares about our cricket.I think he will be a great coach for us.To become a great coach you do not necessarily need to be great player.Alex Ferguson or Jose Murino were not great players .

Wow WC11! That is an awesome quote. So deep and despairing at the same time. Just begs me to learn more.

I absolutely would support him as a Head Coach. I like his knowledge and approach to problems.

He likes to promote himself, but I am willing to live with that. Results are the most important and I have a feeling that Pont can deliver.

Coaching at this level is purely man management and since Ian Pont has been with Bangladesh for a long time(and known for his interest in BD cricket) he is in the best position to know how, when and where to improve the team. He is my choice for the coach .

I think Ian Pont should be our coach atleast he deserve a long term chance but I doubt he will ,one of the reason could be he is bowling specialist coach and we already have bowling coach.No one cant deny the fact that BD need to develop some good fast bowlers.Our fast bowlers future isnt bright.
He haspassion,love,enthusism,skills,experience working with BD National team players and enough knowledge to find new local talents,eagerness to improve Bangladesh cricket.

(I'm neither Yes/No) People that are overlooking Ian Pont because of starstruck DG, they should know Ian did play a part in getting some of those players. And it's not like DG cheated to get those guys. They had the same amount of cap, they went through the process and the biddings to get them. It's not like DG were the Yankees of BPL, and bought their way to championship through big buys. It's the other teams' fault for not matching up with DG.

Champions League coming up! Dhaka Gladiators! I would wholeheartedly want Ian to focus with DG for the time being (And win us the ACLT20 just the way he won us BPL T20). Meanwhile...

Whenever I see people calling for a "high profile coach" at the helm of NT, I immediately think of Sacchi's immortal quote when Italian media questioned his credibility as Mian's head coach with background of a SHOE SALESMAN.
Sacchi: "I never realized that in order to become a jockey you have to have been a horse first"
And I think my choice in the poll is pretty clear after that

With the headcases we have we'll need Sigmund Freud as head coach. But I don't like Freud, guy was a creep
Pont doesn't want it
don't want dean jones
we don't have many choices
Bring back law (now that we might not be going to PK)
