That's not an excuse. I'm not trying to defend JS. This is just how I see how this past 4 year was. That's why I said so so. I'm not saying that I'm happy/glad because things didn't get worse than it is right now.

LOL. Where are you getting this from? Where do you see me parading around the forum claiming he is the best thing that has happened to Bangladesh?

I'm not saying that 'oh how I wish we made the QF so all of JS's mistakes would be overlooked'. I'm just saying that's what majority of our fans would do, that's what BCB would do, they would just be happy with making the QF and the likes of 58 all out would be thrown under the rug.

Believe me I'm always up for raising the bar. Read what I wrote in the BCB preliminary meeting thread because one of the board member claimed our performance was satisfactory.
