The General Public in the Region , have a
RIGHT TO KNOW , WHAT IS ON THE AGENDA regarding the Meeting to be held on the 20th of May 2015 .

The WICB may think that it is a Private
Entity ; however CARICOM cannot consider itself as being a Private Entity .

That being the case , the Public in the
Region must be informed of the Agenda to be discussed , and must also inform the
General Public the results of this Meeting .

FAILURE OF THE SUB COMMITTEE TO DO THIS

WOULD BE A DERELICTION OF DUTY .

ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS LIKELY THAT THE

WORST INTERNATIONAL CRICKET BOARD IN THE

HISTORY OF CRICKET , IS LIKELY TO ASK FOR

PUBLIC MONEY .



ANY SUCH REQUEST MUST BE SWIFTLY REJECTED

WE CANNOT HAVE THE WICB BEING RECKLESS IN

ITS BEHAVIOUR IN THE RECENT TOUR TO INDIA .
THE PEOPLE IN THE WICB MADE THEIR BED SO

LET THEM LIE IN IT .


It would be irresponsible of CARICOM if it allows the WICB gross disrespect , of
refusing to implement the changes recommended by the Patterson Report is not
on the Agenda .

It is very interesting , that now the WICB
is in dire financial Straits , they are
willingly to have meetings with CARICOM
, despite publicly snubbing CARICOM .

THE MORAL OF THIS STORY IS THIS ; NEVER

BE ARROGANT TO ANYONE , BECAUSE A DAY WILL

COME WHEN YOU WILL HAVE TO HUMBLE YOURSELF

TO THOSE WHO YOU WERE ARROGANT TO

AT SOME POINT .




CARICOM MUST REMEMBER THAT THE WICB HAS

BECOME , ACCOUNTABLE TO NO ONE ; NOT EVEN

THE ICC . THIS IS WHY IT IS PERPETUALLY

RECKLESS IN ITS BEHAVIOUR .

Did you deduce this as a resuLt of my stating the fact that the Worst International Cricket Board in the Region ;aka the WICB WAS RECKLESS ????

Truth is that only those who have no freaking Accountability , can afford to be
RECKLESS & IRRESPONSIBLE . Those in the
WICB apparently take a fiendish delight in proving this fact , while their many
Friends in the Media wildly applaud thier
behaviour .

It is your bold writing, it comes across like yelling.
You have been saying the same thing for donkey years, what are you doing to initiate change?
Bro, with your venom, you should get down to the Caricom Islands and get involve.

It aint whether I have been saying the same things continuously , it is about whether
what I state is factual or just a figment of my imagination .

So far you and others criticize my writing style ; you say that I write the same things
all the time , that aint true .

However you and others cannot dispute that
what I write is fiction . The sad thing is that wittingly or unwittingly , those of your ilk are empowering the WICB in its gross maladministration of Cricket in the Region .

I find it very fascinating that you & others refer to the Truth as Venom ; because I believe that the Truth can
be Venomous to those who fear the Truth .

I don't have any voting rights, I am not a member of a local board, so what can any of us do?

What changes have you got the WICB, Sports Journalists or Caricom leader s or any fan to change, with your daily postings ?

Only 50 overs a side? What happened to the Northern Telecom days, when Lara, Dhanraj and Adams used to play three-day cricket?

no wonder we can't produce Test cricketers any more....
