In reply to Headley

So in essence Your thinking is that
One Country has more power than other Countries . Obviously this run contrary the Democratic Principles .

Now let me throw out a few questions
for you and others to answer :

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE WORST

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET BOARD IN THE

COMMONWEALTH , AKA THE WICBC HAS BEEN

FOR YEARS & NOW GOOD STEWARDS OF

CRICKET IN THE REGION ??????


DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE WICBC IN ITS

GOVERNANCE OF CRICKET IN THE REGION

ADHERES TO THE BEST PRINCIPLES OF

GOOD GOVERNANCE ?????


WHY IS IT THAT THE WICBC UTTERLY

REFUSES TO CHANGE ITS 87 YEARS OLD

STRUCTURE ?????


CAN IT BE SAID THAT THE WICBC

IS TRANSPARENT ; ACCOUNTABLE ; AND

ALWAYS EXERCISES GOOD GOVERNANCE ????


WHAT IS YOUR OPINION OF ANY ENTITY

THAT COMMISSIONED SEVERAL REPORTS

AND THEN TOSSED THOSE REPORTS ASIDE

WITHOUT IMPLEMENTING THE SALIENT

FEATURES OF THOSE REPORTS ??????

In my opinion for many years now the
People in the WICBC have bamboozled
the People in the Region into thinking that it is going to undergo restructuring . But it was just a cruel Hoax .

BTW , I DARE YOU OR ANYONE TO

FACTUALLY DISPUTE ANYTHING THAT I

HAVE STATED ABOVE . IT AINT ABOUT

POLITICS ; IT IS ABOUT THE WICBC

BEING ONLY INTERESTED IN SELF

PRESERVATION ; RATHER THAN EXERCISING

GOOD GOVERNANCE .

If the Regional Governments are really interested in saving Cricket in the Region , then take both the
ICC & the WICBC to Court , and let them explain their respective roles
regarding

EXERCISING GOOD GOVERNANCE IN THEIR

RESPECTIVE CAPACITIES .

There are a lot of things I do not like about the WICB. There are a few things I like. For example I like the contracts for the 105 Regional players. Wavell Hinds deserve a lot of credit for WIPA's role.

I have no friends or contacts at the WICB but if there were a choice between the Regional politicians and the WICB the clear choice would be the WICB.

You can face reality (the WICB is a private entity) or you can stay outside of the Region and sprout pieties.


Dave Cameron is woefully short in many areas but he seems to be a good politician.

The Contract that You cited was also done to dilute the power that the International Players had .

BUT YOU STILL AINT ANSWER MY QUESTIONS

THIS INFORMS ME THAT YOU ARE JUST

LIKE THE OTHER WICBC's LACKEYS IN

THIS FORUM . TELL ME WHERE IN WHAT I

HAVE STATED IS FALSE .

Let me again repeat for your benefit what I stated after the aborted Tour
of India in this Forum .

I URGED THE PLAYERS WHO OPTED OUT OF

WIPA , TO COLLECTIVELY SEEK THE BEST

LAW FIRM DEALING WITH CONTRACTS TO

REPRESENT THEM IN ALL THEIR

TRANSACTIONS WITH THE WICBC .

Now my take was & is that by doing this would cost them individually less money than each of them individually getting their own Lawyer .
Obviously doing this Collectively would have , & can demonstrate a United Front . Now I have no idea if
Players read this Forum . I do not
believe that my advice was heeded .

If what I stated was in place, I believe that the recent episodes regarding Pollard & Bravo would have
possibly been avoided . I am a firm
believer in the adage :

" UNITY IS STRENGTH "


THE ISSUE AINT ABOUT WHO IS FOR OR

AGAINST THE WICBC , IT IS AS I HAVE

STATED , ABOUT GOOD GOVERNANCE . AND

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT THAT

FOR DECADES THE WICBC HAS FAILED TO

EXERCISE GOOD GOVERNANCE . THIS IS

PRECISELY WHY THE REGIONAL BOARDS &

THE WICBC MUST BE COMPLETELY

RESTRUCTURED . HALFWAY MEASURES AINT

GOING TO WORK .

POINT 2016-12-31 20:12:33 

One thing I know for sure , is that the WICBC aint own Cricket in the Region .

THE BCCI THOUGHT IT OWNED CRICKET IN

INDIA , UNTIL THE SUPREME COURT OF

INDIA VERBALLY SLAPPED ITS OFFICIALS .

THE JUDGES IN INDIA STATED IN NO

UNCERTAIN TERMS THAT THEY DID NOT

OWN CRICKET IN INDIA , THEY ARE ONLY

THE STEWARDS OF CRICKET IN INDIA .

This also applies to the WICBC . It
seems that some in this Post believe
that being a Private Entity means that Mediocrity must reign Supreme .

I cannot subscribe to that B..S..T.
The point I am making is that the
BCCI found it self in a Law Court being verbally slapped around by Judges .

Private or not the WICBC Officials
can one day find themselves in a Law
Court , for bamboozling the General
Public , by commissioning several
Reports and not integrating the findings of these Reports into its
87 years old Structure .

Tell me how many freaking Cricket Grounds the WICBC owns ; How many
Police Forces ; does it own . Like
the BCCI the WICBC is only the Steward of Cricket in the Region .

It is exceedingly asinine to suggest
that the fact that the WICBC is a
Private Entity that allows its Members to be Nasty ; Arrogant People
who are absolutely not interested in

TRANSPARENCY ; ACCOUNTABILITY ; &

GOOD GOVERNANCE . IT IS ONLY

INTERESTED SELF PRESERVATION .

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE MATTERS TO

THE PEOPLE IN THE WICBC . THEY HAVE

DEMONSTRATED THIS FACT FOR DECADES .

DOES ANYONE HERE DISPUTE THIS FACT

?????

The Governments need to crack down on the WICBC . It seems that the Politicians in the Region have lost their Testicular Fortitude . I am
reminded of the adage :

" THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE WAY

TO SKIN A CAT " .

87 FREAKING YEARS WITH THE SAME

FREAKING STRUCTURE . WORSE YET THEY

ARE HELL BENT ON KEEP THEIR 1929

STRUCTURE INTACT .

The reason why they bluntly refuse to
change the Structure , is due to this fact :

IT ALLOWS THE MEMBERS OF THE WICBC

TO BE NOT TRANSPARENT ; ACCOUNTABLE ;

AND PLEDGE TO EXERCISE GOOD

GOVERNANCE .


WORSE YET IT HAS THE SUPPORT OF THE

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET CABAL aka ,

THE ICC , AN ORGANIZATION

THAT RECENTLY ALLOWED 3 OF ITS

MEMBERS ; ENGLAND ; AUSTRALIA ; &

INDIA TO TAKE MOST OF ITS PROFITS .

Obviously this matter , has reduced
the Integrity of the ICC , to the level of the FIFA & IOC SCANDALS .
In my opinion the manner in which the
current Chairman of the ICC was elected , is astounding .

In reply to Slipfeeler

Yep not a likeable fellow but for now he seems to be getting his way - just like Trump. The WICB under his presidency has done some good things but their approach lacks finesse and engagement.

The closeness he has fashioned with the current Antigua administration is likely to lead to some conflicts of interest and I will not be surprised if eventually it gets much worse. I have mentioned above that having Antigua on his side disarms CARICOM. Point does not appreciate that CARICOM only works by consensus, so if Antigua is not in support there can be no further action.

LET ME RECOMMEND TO MY CRITICS THAT

THEY READ IN THIS FORUM THE POST

REGARDING THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA

REMOVING THE PRESIDENT OF THE BCCI &

ITS SECRETARY .

I am sure that the BCCI thinks of itself as a Private Entity . So please
explain to me what power the Court
has to remove the President of the
BCCI . The Supreme Court also placed
other Strictures on Members of the
BCCI .

Last year I stated in this very Forum
what the Supreme Court of India told
the BCCI in Court , when the BCCI
was in Court :

"YOU DO NOT OWN CRICKET IN INDIA YOU

ARE ONLY THE STEWARDS OF CRICKET IN

INDIA ".

Now the Structure of the BCCI is very similar to the WICBC , they do not own any Cricket Grounds in India . So
the question is this , regarding Cameron is this :

DOES CAMERON KNOW HOW TO BAMBOOZLE

Not an original idea. Barbados already had players under contact and found a way to fund it. WICB has to find new revenue streams to grow the game in the region. 50 over format is supposed to a commercially viable product yet WICB cannot find a sponsor or put bums on seats.

Most of the Laws in the Commonwealth
Countries are based on English Law .
You need to think before writing Stupidness .

When the case between DIGICEL ; Stanford & the WICBC was ultimately
determined by the PRIVY COUNCIL .
Obviously this makes your belief
moot .

FYI , a large part of the Laws in America are based on English Law .
In English Speaking Countries the
Magna Carta is held in great esteem .
It was originally issued by King John in 1215 ; and established for the first time that :

EVERYONE INCLUDING THE KING WAS

SUBJECT TO THE LAW . THIS REINFORCES

MY PERSPECTIVE THAT THE HIGH & MIGHTY

AINT ABOVE THE LAW .

Regardless of whether it is a Private
or Public Entity . The BCCI believed
in the HOCUS POCUS that they were above the Law until the Supreme Court
of India verbally slapped the Officials of the BCCI , and then to
add insult to Injury , removed the
President and the Secretary of the
BCCI .

Worse yet , there aint one blasted
thing that the people in the BCCI can do to change what the India Supreme Court did . So much for those who believe that they are omnipotent .

If the people in the WICBC have any iota of brains they would pay attention to what has happened to the
BCCI OFFICIALS IN INDIA . News these
days travels with the speed of Light , so by now most people in the Region are fully aware of the Supreme Court
of India putting the WICBC under Heavy Manners .

In essence this Aura & Myth perpetrated by the the International
Cabal that Governments cannot intervene in Cricket is just B...S...
Frankly when the Guyana Government took the GCB to Court , I expected that the ICC & the WICBC would have
put in appearance to support the GCB . Sadly they both were MIA .

It was then I realized that the ICC
& the WICBC do not possess as much power as they lead people to believe . Obviously if there was a case against the ICC in a Law Court , because it failed to ensure that the
WICBC adhere to all the Principles of
Good Governance :

ITS OFFICIALS WILL HAVE TO APPEAR IN

COURT TO STATE WHY THEY HAVE BEEN

DERELICT IN THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO

ENSURE THAT ONE OF ITS MEMBERS NAMELY

THE WICBC IS NOT EXERCISING &

ADHERING TO THE PRINCIPLES OF GOOD

GOVERNANCE .

I am not a Lawyer either , but it is obvious to me that any Entity that is
in the Stewardship of a Public Sport
must adhere the the Principles of Good
Governance .

Perhaps you believe that it is fine and Dandy that in 2017 , the WICBC has
bluntly refused to change its 1929
Structure . Hell WE are living in the
21st Century .

The very last Report , stated in clear unambiguous terms that the WICBC should be abolished . On that
Commission , were members of the WICBC , and an eminent Judge .

You apparently refuse to acknowledge that all of the Reports so far have
stated that there needs to be restructuring of the WICBC .

AGAIN THIS IS A FACT NOT FICTION .

Some years ago , I decided to look in Wikipedia regarding the formation of
International Cricket Boards . The
BCCI & the WICBC in my opinion , are
similar in Structure . They both do not own Cricket Grounds . They both also share the trait of being very
Arrogant .

I also learned that on 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS ; the President of Pakistan Fired the Pakistan Cricket Board for Malfeasance .

On each of these four occasions , the
President of Pakistan APPOINTED a
Chairman , & an Ad Hoc Committee to
run Cricket in Pakistan until there was Elections for new Officers to the
Pakistan Cricket Board .

So in essence what I learned is that
Governments cannot run Cricket Forever . They however can step in when there are serious Irregularities. That also happened in
Guyana , where I expected to see the
ICC & the WICBC , appearing on behalf
of the GCB , but they were not there .
Obviously if a majority of the Governments decided to bring a Case
against the WICBC in Court , the WICBC will have to appear in Court .
If they refuse , the Judge or Judges
can issue Bench Warrants to compell its Officials to appear in Court .

Let me again state that the Magna Carta stated since 1215 that NO ONE
not even the King / Queen is above the Law .

Rubberd's point is still relevant. If you want to give kudos to Wavell orCameron for providing income to the additional 105 you have to address the method they chose to do it. If they had robbed a bank to do so you wouldn't want to give them credit for that, would you?

The point is that Barbados found a means to give substantive contracts to its first class level cricketers, supported by a national lottery. It is surely feasible that through the combination of a regional lottery and effective management (leading to generation of sponsor confidence) that the pain inflicted on test cricketers in particular could have been mitigated, thereby retaining the achievement of test cricket selection as a major incentive for the same 105 cricketers to continue to hone their skills in striving for excellence.

It seems that You are beginning to See

There are , as I have stated elsewhere, many similar features between the BCCI & the WICBC regarding their Structures .

Incidentally , the BCCI was founded in 1928 , and the WICBC in 1929 . They both refuse to be Transparent ;
and Accountable .

They are also both
populated by Arrogant People , the
Supreme Court of India , stated that
the Members of the BCCI believe that
they are Lords . The Members of the
WICBC , not only believe that they are Lords ; They also believe that they are answerable to No One but themselves .

 
POINT 2017-01-07 12:55:06 

The Regional Boards also exhibit the
same traits as the WICBC . Like the
WICBC , THEY are not Transparent ;
Accountable ; or exercise Good Governance .

Their main concern like the WICBC is
SELF PRESERVATION . As always the Players are the Scapegoats used to
divert real Scrutiny regarding ALL those in the governance of Cricket in the Region .

THEY are assisted by the fact that , in my opinion there are now credible
Sports Journalists in the Region .
Apparently they do not possess the Testicular Fortitude , to be critical
of the WICBC ; and the Regional Boards .
