Now undecided

Liu says even if STTA wants him to stay, he needs to think about it. He adds: 'I need space to do my job. I need to be able to make decisions that won't be second-guessed. I can't have people trying to disrupt what I am trying to achieve here.'

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.'

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.
