It looks like Simon is doing a great job! Simon was our assistant manager last year at Worthing FC, the team I support, and it looks like he's made the big step up very well. You're luck to have such a great coach, and he will take you far places. You could be heading off to Brazil in 2014

^ I agree. Haha
He's lifted the team to great heights. I hope we keep him long enough - this stupid plan of Martinez to replace him and revamp the whole team is unnecessary and counterproductive to what we've so far established. He's clearly brought a lot to the table, and it's only fit for him to keep his job.

Happy Christmas, Coach Simon! You and the Azkals have given us fans a wonderful, early Christmas present. (I heard he's flying back to England for the holidays.)

I hope Martinez statement wont push thru, I hope they get rid of that guy to(martinez). We should keep the coach and hope they keep the core of the team and maybe few add-ons if required.

just an inquiry...(http://soccernet.espn.go.com/columns/sto....=global&cc=5739 )the locals know that, no matter how hard they work in training, they will be replaced when the foreign players come in..so they are eventually planning to drop the locals...

Hey, I brought back this thread up again. Glad to tell you that Coach Simon is finishing up his AFC "A" coaching license course in Manila, before returning to Indonesia next week. We're glad he's stepping up the game now.
Anyway, here's an interesting article about him: FROM SUSSEX TO MANILA...AND BACK AGAIN[/color] by James Goyder (18 Feb 2011) James Goyder meets Simon McMenemy, who packed more into 2010 than most people manage in a decade.2010 was not a vintage year for English managers. Roy Hodgson and Steve McClaren are the latest to fall by the wayside with the quest to find a homegrown successor to Fabio Capello looking increasingly doomed due to the dearth of qualified candidates. One English manager whose reputation has been significantly enhanced over the course of the past 12 months is Simon McMenemy. He began the year as assistant manager at Worthing Town in the Isthmian League Division One South and ended it by taking the Philippines to the semi finals of the AFF Suzuki Cup, the second leg of which was witnessed by an incredible 88,000 fans. As footballing stories go this is one of the most incredible you are ever likely to hear but it is not just about one man’s extraordinary ascent up the managerial ladder, it is also about how an entire nation learned to love the beautiful game.

So that's what he's doing in the Philippines. Source for the info?
