Becca: Hiring Dyson an insult
Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007Tony Becca believes the hiring of John Dyson is “an insult” to the people of the West Indies:
The employment of a foreigner, an Australian, to coach the West Indies team, suggests, at least it does to me, that despite the achievements of West Indians with bat and ball and as captain, and even though a West Indian has been the president of the ICC, the Board has no faith in its own people, not to do a heart transplant, not to rid the world of a plague, but to coach a cricket team - their own cricket team.
That, to me, is telling the people of the West Indies that they are not good enough. That, to me, in the 21st century, is an insult to the people of the West Indies.
* Becca has never been more wrong with this backasswardness.
