Based on the interviews taken by Miraz bhai of Jamie Siddons in January 2010, 2008 and 2009 and based on the answers he gave I thought Siddons was the right man for the job(at that time).

people, please take a time to form your own opinion and read these interviews, it will shed some light on what type on person Jamie Siddons really is and What were his ambitions and aspirations with this team:

He had a plan and a vision in mind, well He should be judged based the promises that he made and how he kept them. We should not only take the world cup into consideration, we should take into consideration everything since 2009 up until 2011. and based on that there are more batting collapses than successes! so Sorry, man! I gave him enough benefit of doubt as a Fan. I think He has had enough time to instill his vision into reality which obviously no matter how you look at it backfired. Facts will remain facts! no matter whether you support Siddons or against him. Everytime in his interview, he would always emphasize how he is building a team with the World Cup '11 on focus. Build a core group of players. and he kept telling us that Bangladeshi Batsmen do not know how to play basic cricket. Suppose i accepted the fact that OK Siddons did a good job with our batting, but for me as a fan, in recent times, I have seen too many batting collapses to believe that!

If you say that that is because of the Bangladeshi batsmen/people mentality, then with this attitude i assure you, We will never conquer World Cricket. Simple as that!
