</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>LESS than a day after welcoming the positive news that Singapore Table Tennis Association president Lee Bee Wah looked forward to working with him in preparation for the 2012 Olympics, Liu Guodong is having second thoughts about staying on as national head coach.

He told The Straits Times yesterday: 'Even if the STTA wants me to stay, I will need to think about it.'
<TABLE width=200 align=left valign="top"><TBODY><TR><TD class=padr8><!-- Vodcast --><!-- Background Story -->Enough has been said
'I believe commenting further won't help them to resolve their problem. I also think enough has been said about this issue. The only way is to let the team sort it out within themselves.' - Singapore National Olympic Council president Teo Chee Hean. Mr Teo, who is also Defence Minister, was speaking after the National Day Parade Appreciation Reception last night



</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>This latest development comes as a shock after there were signs of progress on Tuesday night, when both Liu and Ms Lee said that they were looking forward to working with each other.
Then, Ms Lee had said: 'I've considered that Liu Guodong has done a great job with the girls and met the target of a medal at the Olympics.'
But, yesterday morning, Liu had a change of heart.
He said: 'This whole saga - am I staying or am I going - has really hurt my pride.'
If he is to stay on, his top concern is the environment he will be working in.
Liu, 34, said: 'I need space to do my job.
'I need to be able to make decisions that won't be second-guessed.
'And I can't have people trying to disrupt what I am trying to achieve here.'
If those assurances are given, Liu said he will stay on - '100 per cent'.
However, as things stand, he is uncertain about staying put until he has had a discussion with Ms Lee.
She did not want to comment on the issue when approached at the National Library last night after the closing ceremony of Read! Singapore 2008.
Despite leading the women's table tennis team to a silver - Singapore's first Olympic medal in 48 years - there were initial doubts over Liu's future.
This, after STTA chief Lee said that his fate would be decided by a coaching committee last Saturday.
The uncertainty followed the fiasco in the Olympics' men's singles event, where Singapore No 1 Gao Ning played without a coach by his side and crashed out in the third round.
Following the 'Gao Ning incident', Sports Minister Vivian Balakrishnan promised a full review of the controversy after Team Singapore returned from Beijing on Monday.
Yesterday morning, the minister had a meeting with paddlers Li Jiawei, Feng Tianwei, Wang Yuegu, Sun Beibei, Gao Ning, Yang Zi and Cai Xiaoli.
Dr Balakrishnan also met the coaches and team manager Antony Lee. It is unclear what was discussed. All Liu would say was that 'it went well'.
Although there was speculation within the sporting fraternity that Liu had offered to resign yesterday, he quashed the rumour.
He insisted that he will see out his current contract, which runs till Dec 31.
This means that he will be in charge when the Republic's paddlers compete at next month's Volkswagen Women's World Cup in Kuala Lumpur. Liu said: 'We've worked so hard to get to where we are. I still hope that I can be here to consolidate our position, which will be harder than our rise to the top.'

LBW messed up badly. She should resign and take responsibility. Why blame the team manager? The president not responsible?

 

[sunny302]

The president not responsible?

She think she is not responsible becos she did not appoint the team...she onli "inherited it....

 

[eeoror88]

The whole saga is shameful !! LBW should resign !!

 

[wizard]

You good to PAP and nod your head everytime the gang agreed on somethings.
joined their reserve engineering. LKY and LHL decided on something then you all pretend to debate and urgue until it reach the desire result then you stop at the right time.

Laugh at the opposition when the rest laugh even thru it is not funny.

PAP will take care of you by creating a job for you.

But your must be a good girl.


" Vote for opposition and convince 2 other to do likewise"

I fully agree with you. LBW was in Beijing Olympics too. What was she doing? Sightseeing? She was the 'CEO' of STTA and yet did not know her 'manager' fell sick? Only there to watch the women team final and cheered like a clown?

Liu is very wise, the achievement came from him not her. So what if she is the president of STTA, can she coach the team, can she bring in medal, does she has the material that ping-pong gal respect her, now all the china gals were greatly demoralised that their own china comrades were being treated unfairly, it seems all Singapore monetary, and time effort to boost the ping pong team has came to a still because of one lau auntie's obstinate decision or because she has PAP to back her to act like Dowager?

This is the usual stuff MIW delivers after they get what they want, the PRCian should know when to fcuk off when they outlived their own usefulness.

Account closing comes immediately after the showing their best winning, it's time for old papayas to tear wipe and flush these waste rice FTs away like they did the sinkie peasants.

Welcome to Sinkapoor, we are sinkapoor, sinkapooreans.

Now pay millions to see Matlaysian FT fucks Cina FTs, paid dogs screwed paid dogs.

To be more complete, from what I read in the press, LBW blames not only the team manager, but many others that included Coach Liu, the secretary of STTA (on the day the Gao Ning was w/o a coach), the newspaper reporter who interviewed her, the Singapore public in general (becoz it was also reported in the press that a few of her likeminded supporters backed her actions)........wat a fcuking thing to say.........Everyone else is to be blamed , Everyone else is wrong....except the venerable LBW.

People of the World........Let's judge LBW by her actions and words.

have to wait and see lor....somehow have a feeling...they will say "Lets Move On"...
