[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1052094, member: 55747"] Well, that is precisely part of the problem. Here we are here picking sides on an accusation we don't even know the details of. I assumed the "innocent till proven guilty" and the right to defend oneself were generally accepted principles in western democracies. If it's a personal thing (salary, etc), I can see the argument for privacy. If it's an institutional thing, absolutely not. Regulating the behaviour or a coach regarding criticisms towards the organization? Please, for the love of god, make that public. Let us know, amplify it. Are we seriously questioning the benefits of transparency on these issues? Are we talking about state secrets? Dear god. Orwell would be proud. One last thing. Sincere answers only, please: do you doubt for one second that behind closed doors every single coach has a pretty similar rant? I for one am all in favour of having the behind closed doors and the public discourses aligned. [/QUOTE]
