Why are 99% of the Sabre Youtube posts total c*ap?

It would be an interesting discussion, but it's not going to happen in this thread.

Agreed. Can we kill this thread, and let nyacsabre just try starting over? Hopefully with something like Adler suggested:

A more constructive approach may have been to post some videos of yourself coaching and explaining your methodology and inviting an open debate. Alternatively you could write a reasoned critique that could be discussed and evaluated to everyones benefit

the recent spate of inter-coach slaggings that have gone on on this board hasn't gone unnoticed even by my lot

BTW, I kind of expect random nonsense and a lot of noise on the Fencing Discussion forum. I'm dismayed that it's leaked into the Coaching Corner. I believe that people posting here generally make a conscious effort to ensure that this part of the forums maintains a high signal-to-noise ratio. I really appreciate that, and I feel that we've been largely successful for 4 years running. Hopefully, we can put this thread behind us and get back to the Coaching Corner's established character with some useful and thought-provoking discussion about coaching fencing.

Ok. I'll close the thread. We can always, "try again".
