Shiv endorses Cameron
In reply to positiveg
probably Shiv not great, or not a past player!
pledged allegiance? Cameron is a deity now?
In reply to Larr Pullo
every man looking out for himself!
In reply to camos
Yeah the statement isn't even in Shiv's voice...
In reply to positiveg
The man knows on which side his bread is buttered.
The Big IDIOT was the one who (unsuccessfully) tried to keep Shiv in the WI team at least until a proper farewell could be convened. Those past players who're now proponents of the opposition all gave Shiv the old heave-o.
I am not surprised at all.
Skerrit is the skunt who accused Shiv of faking...and pretending to have pain in his foot......That was on an OZ tour...when Skerrit was manager
Shiv spent his own money to get it checked...and lo and behold he did have a floating bone in his foot....and he had surgery to remove it.....the runs flowed after that.
Poll the recently retired West Indian players....not those of the glory years.... especially those who played when Skerrit was manager....I bet none is going to support Skerrit
It is well documented what Skerrit did to Lara.
Skerrit had no respect for the players....he tried to bully them...he was not liked...
Knock he skunt Shiv
Cameron did try to get you that 2 tests you asked for
And Cameron did fire Big PU-C and Simmons for not giving a break....a reasonable request for two more tests as there was no one knocking on the door to replace you....in fact they haven't replaced you as yet since they retired you
And Cameron did make you an ambassador for the last Women T20 WC tournament in the WI
In reply to positiveg
So is who the voters them who Shiv trying to influence?
The people of the Caribbean get to vote?
Why all this hype?
In reply to Narper
Of all the points you made only one I can speak about.
If Lara and Skerritt had issues why then Lara is Skerritt daughter Godfather?
Shiv should of been given a better send off and if Lloyd was one to rush him into retirement, how come Cameron didn't use his executive powers as he does now to make sure Shiv stayed in the team. You and all, I believe, have accused Cameron of picking the team. So we know he has influence.
The rest of it if Skerritt has done Shiv harm and this is Shiv way of getting back well then more power to him. I won't ever make noise about the decisions made by big people and no vex with Shiv I respect the man's decision.
In reply to Narper
Hola...LLoyd is irrelevant...he had a good run on the world stage...that crap he did to Shiv..(a fellow Guyanese) made him a loser....no arguments...
Cameron will win...and big too...but when he does he just needs to rid himself of all the jokers around.
Adios

In reply to positiveg
I would be shocked if HE didn't have influence.
Isn't that why he fired Lloyd and Simmons...for ignoring his advice to give Shiv another two test.....as he had PUBLICLY promised Shiv another two tests...and stated Shiv would be in Bim for the test...but we know what happened ...
In reply to Narper
Ok then but she he have that kind of influence
Let's minus Shiv from the equation.
Should the president be deciding who plays from who doesn't?
In reply to positiveg
No
That should up to the selectors.
But it also depends on the mandate of the selectors. Do we know what this ? Who does the chairman of the selector report to? Does the board sanction all players selected? Who evaluates the performance of the selectors?
Now if the selectors have made selections or omissions that are not in the interest of WI cricket....and the selectors are answerable to the board....then the Prez has the right to seek explanations or answers.
In reply to Narper
Lol
In reply to Narper
is the President the boss of the selectors or is the CEO the boss?
In reply to positiveg
the pres is the boss of the CEO
In reply to camos
Yeah I got that, Understand
But the role of the CEO is what? Every day affairs of the CWI right?
Am a huge supporter of shiv his determination he was not the most gifted batsman and unlike lara who won us games shiv runs came in losing causes. When he was dropped he was well past his best and it was time to invest in younger players I don't believe in giving farewell when a guy is not good enough anymore
In reply to timeless99
Two more games so that he could be given a proper and deserving farewell was all that was asked.
We could afford it.
In reply to Narper
Knock he skunt Shiv

Maybe therein lie the root of the dislike!
Q: I want to get your take on the ICC Trophy episode when Lara took ill. You mentioned "Hepatitis" as the probable diagnosis, something that angered Lara because of issues related to privacy invasion. Did that whole episode put a strain on your relationship with Lara? Is that something you regret?
A: The ICC release quoted me as saying that Lara had been hospitalised with "suspected Hepatitis".
I had said this to the ICC representative based on what I had been actually told by the doctor. Because of the circumstances of the match, and my inexperience, I had begun to handle a personal medical situation in the same way that I usually handled a cricket-related injury.
Brian was understandably upset and told me so later that evening. It brought out an unprecedented issue of whether a performing player's reason for hospitalisation during a match is private or public.
On reflection I admitted that I had made an error of judgment in this situation and apologised to Brian the same night. It was a learning experience for me. The relationship between Brian and myself continues to grow

A: I honestly don't believe that the WICB at any time was against any of my attempts to be tough on indiscipline.
In reply to Narper
Because both Harper and Dujon were candidates for the HEAD COACH! When Harper was selected, Dujon obviously wasn't happy being jin an assistant role to Harper. It was silly to put them both in that position since they both were candidates for head coach.
My understanding is that the position of assistant coach had not even been envisaged by the Board prior to the time of our appointment.
I know of several coaches who would have applied for the assistant-coach position if they had known that such a position was available.
This is pertinent in the context that an individual might be a good assistant-coach but not necessarily a good head-coach and vice versa.
After the Australian tour the WICB transferred Dujon to a development coaching position where it was felt he could be more effective. As far as I know he is still employed in that position.
Like Fuzz didn't see this?

Oh fact you go drive Narper to take another drink.

Player privacy issues and the nature of injuries are such that the NHL now only refers to the following types of injury when a player is out due to injury
Upper body injury
Lower body injury
Coaches, doctors, management etc are not allowed to reveal specifics of any injury.......except when a hit to the head occurs....in which case, the terminology is “the player is following the concussion protocol”
The sporting world has evolved significantly from the days of the incident quoted by Narper
In reply to imusic
you still hear of torn ACL every week in the other sports.
In reply to Narper
Just imagine,this is used to say that Skerritt is unsuitable to be CWI President.The other knock is the Mound Incident when a couple of players were seen in the Party Stand after WI were bowled out for 47.
Allyuh good oui!!!!!!!!
In reply to Dukes
i take that you would support Skerritt if you could vote
In reply to Dukes
Hola...so you never had a bad day at the office???well I know I did and man it was rum time to settle the nerves and chill out..

Re: Chanderpaul..... It is expected that someone who was illiterate until just a few years ago will support Cameron; that comes as no surprise.
In reply to outside_edge
So, what does that say about all the geniuses that support Cameron??
In reply to outside_edge
that is really out of line and unfair commentary on the character of Shiv
In reply to outside_edge
Re: Chanderpaul..... It is expected that someone who was illiterate until just a few years ago will support Cameron; that comes as no surprise.
And you think because someone allowed you to post here you are literate?
In reply to outside_edge
If you are smarter than Shiv maker a persuasive argument as to why his choice is incorrect!
In reply to Dukes
And if my memory serves me well there was a Jerome Taylor incident too in Zimbabwe
This guy has demonstrated he has no regards for players...when he was manager...what will he do when he is Prez..
Vote for Skerrit...would be an exchange
I am not ready for exchange
In reply to outside_edge
Hola...imagine an illiterate person being given a doctorate..recognised world wide for his being a professional cricketer..achieved respect in the cricketing world...amassed riches and you..yes you the literate FOOL..with all your literacy degrees, etc can only FLIP burgers at Macdonalds and clean their latrines..
Damn good thing Shiv aint literate..
You guys are just a bunch of clowns and losers...losers.....I say so..

The TRUTH can really hurt sometimes, but it's not a sin......accept it and move on with your sorry lives.
In reply to outside_edge
Okay manage your hurt dumbass
And maybe you should go back to school and educate yourself.
In reply to outside_edge
Hola...let me explain something to you..this is not about truth..when Shiv chose cricket over school at a tender age that was his choice.He came to GCC in Georgetown well equipped to be aprofeesional cricketer with limited reading and writing skills...no one denied that ...and they helped him progress in that area.
My point is ..an illiterate made it..whilst you the literate is JEALOUS of his success..
truth dont hurt people like me...it hurts people like you..who are jealous,small minded ,envious ,non progressive because a small and supposedly illiterate lad from a fishing village made it BIG..
THAT IS TRUTH>>>>NOW SUCK IT UP AND GO ENVY SOMEONE ELSE>
Adios

Shiv is grate
In reply to Narper
so whats next for Dr Shiv? cameron sent packing
In reply to shivnotout
Shiv looks like he always jumping the wrong fence.
He should've focussed on what he knows best.
No disrespect, bu fact is, he is a jumper.
In reply to goofballs
they call him Tiger
In reply to outside_edge
So, the illiterates supported Cameron, who lost 2-4, thus proving that 1 out of 3 West Indians is illiterate.
