I understand that getting a professional knowledge in coaching introduces an individual to aspects of a sport not known by all, but oftentimes i have witnessed individuals (spectators) of a sport, due to extreme love for a sport become masters of a sport so much that it seems almost like they now know the sport better than some coaches.

Whenever a game is going on say football, you always hear such individuals question the coach's line up and tactics, you hear questions like -

-Why is he (the coach)  not playing player xyz?
-why did he (the coach) use player xyz instead of players zyx?
-why is he (that is the coach) using this formation instead the other one? and so on.

-Is there a possibility that spectators of a sport like you and i with no professional training can develop a better understanding of a sport than some professional coaches of some teams?



Even if someone has spent 30 or even 40 years in the stands of a stadium, he has never attended a sports club board meeting. The coach is responsible not only for what is happening on the pitch. Obviously, the results are the most important, but it is very important to know how to get them.
To know how to do it, you need to have a lot of experience, and good trainers train professionally for many years.
So no, it's definitely impossible!
