Not Again

0-0

I place the blame 100% on head coach Ramiro Blacutt. Not only did he stubbornly insist on playing three players way past their prime (32-37 years old, Oscar Sanchez, Erwin Sanchez and Luis Cristaldo), but he also refused to call in players who had some past disciplinary problems. Players like Jose Alfredo Castillo stars in the Mexican League, but was ruled ineligible in the Bolivian League, but not from International competition. I do not care, as long as they are producing on the field, they can do as they please. His substitution patterns were abysmal, taking out the most skilled players and leaving in the players with the oldest legs.

Hernando Siles stadium was packed this afternoon, and so many people left very bitter, especially me.

Bleh.

I have always said, that Blacutt is does not belong as a coach. I mean, look at his record, please. He's got to go.

Let's start a campaign to get that incompetent out of there. :-) (but, I am OK, really....)

I´m with you, tell me where to sign. I liked Nelson Acosta, when he was tossed from the game during the Venezuela fiasco, that was the beginning of the end -- oh yeah, that and the Chile defeat at home.
