MONEY; BASED ON THE PERFORMANCES OF

THEIR TEAMS IN THE INTERNATIONAL

CRICKET ARENA .


DOING THIS WILL HOPEFULLY GET THE

ATTENTION OF THE BIG IDIOTS & THE

REGIONAL BOARDS.

In reply to POINT

I’m assuming you meant ‘pay the BOARDS’. Yes I definitely agree with your assertion.

In reply to POINT

Yes
Great idea
Imagine a world where India, Aus and Eng get all the money and the smaller nations get crumbs

Not so long ago, POINT was vehemently opposed to the Big3/Big 4 idea on this very forum..

In reply to mikelegend

Yes I do mean the Boards , Thank You .

In reply to Halliwell

YOU evidently have missed the point I
am making , which is simply to get the Big Idiots to make our Players
fully Competitive in the International Cricket Arena .

In essence there must be an incentive
to ensure & spur the Big Idiots to
make Our Players fully competitive in
the International Cricket Arena .

It seems that the Worst International
Cricket Board in the Commonwealth ,
aka the WICBC/CWI has no incentive to make our Players fully Competitive in
the International Cricket Arena .

In reply to POINT

Do you have an example of how you'd distribute revenue using this proposed structure?

I wouldn't mind seeing examples for all teams based on the last calendar year, for example.

In reply to Tryangle

The gist of what I am proposing is that Since the Worst International
Cricket Board in the Commonwealth ,
has failed to improve the Standard of
Cricket in the Region .

My take is that since those in the WICBC/CWI are seemly ignorant regarding the true nature of their
Stewardship of West Indies Cricket ,

IT SHOULD BE INCUMBENT ON THE ICC

TO TELL THE WICBC/CWI WHAT PERCENTAGE

OF THE MONEY ALLOTTED TO THEM , MUST

BE SOLELY DEVOTED TO MAKING OUR

PLAYERS FULLY COMPETITIVE IN THE

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET ARENA .

This may seem harsh , however if the
the people in the Worst International
Cricket Board in the Region ; are
clueless regarding ensuring OUR Players are fully competitive in
International Cricket .

IN ESSENCE A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF

THE MONEY ALLOCATED TO THE WICBC/CWI

MUST BE SPENT ON DEVELOPING & MAKING

OUR PLAYERS COMPETITIVE IN

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET .

The Once Rich History of West Indies
Cricket is being sullied by the Big
Idiots in the governance of West Indies Cricket. THEY therefore must
must be treated like LITTLE KIDS .

GROWN PEOPLE WHO BEHAVE LIKE LITTLE

KIDS MUST BE TREATED LIKE LITTLE

KIDS. IT IS THAT FREAKING SIMPLE

Imagine Our Players & Teams were once
the Very Best in the World .

THERE ARE PEOPLE STILL ALIVE WHO CAN

TESTIFY TO THIS FACT . CURRENTLY WE

ARE WALLOWING AT OR NEAR THE BOTTOM .

THERE CAN ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT THAT

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH CRICKET IN

THE REGION .

This problem is mainly due to the
Gross Incompetence of those in the
Governance of Cricket in the Region .

The Media in the Region are seemingly
COWED into telling those in the WICBC/CWI that they are Stark Naked .
They prefer telling them that they
are elegantly attired .

IIRC Windies are slated to receive $128m over the current period up to 2023... equal in amount to all FMs aside from the Big 3, more than Zimbabwe, even more than the two new FMs, and substantially more than individual Associates.

This number likely would drop by a portion if it was instead based on men's team performance.

I'm assuming WICB/CWI distribution of revenue (men's/women's/youth/umpire&support staff) isn't in the public domain?

And thus the ICC should be saying that something like a 40-20-20-10 model be adopted?

In reply to Tryangle

If what You state is true , then it stands to reason that the Big Idiots
are getting more money than Bangladesh.

Yet despite this , Bangladesh is more
or less on par with our Team . This
obviously suggest , at least to me that :

THE WICBC/CWI IS FAILING CRICKET IN

THE REGION . THAT BEING THE CASE IT

IN MY OPINION IT MUST BE REPLACED .

Apart from DIGICEL ,what other Sponsors does the WICBC/CWI have ???

What is the cause of a Paucity of
Financial Sponsors ???

Why is it that those who profess to be Sports Journalists in the Region
continuously Fail to address these questions to those in the governance
of Cricket in the Region ?????
