KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent And The Grenadines - Cricket West Indies under the current leadership of President Ricky Skerritt and Vice-President Dr. Kishore Shallow reiterates its campaign commitment to strengthen ties with CARICOM, following a courtesy call on Thursday morning with Saint Vincent And The Grenadines Prime Minister, Dr. Hon Ralph Gonsalves.

The more than three-hour meeting conducted in a serious but very cordial atmosphere,
addressed not just the urgent need to strengthen schools cricket, but also concerns and plans for Governance reform, a financial review, modernization of the Team Selection System, and the need to introduce a fitness culture at the youth level.

Flowery Speeches , but WE await concrete Action .The Worst International Cricket Board in the
Commonwealth aka the WICBC , has a
blatant History of saying things and then not one blasted thing happens .

It is important to note that the WICBC is over 100 freaking years old ,and during its Stewardship of West Indies Cricket on several occasions
the WICBC has commissioned various
Reports and have not done one blasted
thing about those Reports .

THE CURRENT LEADERSHIP OF THE WICBC

HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO INFORM THE

PUBLIC ABOUT THE WHEREABOUTS OF THE

INFAMOUS WEHBY REPORT THAT WAS

COMMISSIONED BY THE FORMER PRESIDENT

OF THE WICBC DAVE CAMERON .

Ouite frankly I do not believe that
there is any Report . The Onus is on the WICBC to publicly produce this
Report Immediately to quell the beliefs that there is indeed a Wehby
Report .

Since its inception , the WICBC has
believed that it is a Law into itself
and is accountable to NO ONE . It is
an Entity that is stricken with

PMS, PLANTATION MENTALITY SYNDROME

In recent times it was not the WICBC
that brought Glory in Cricket to the
Region . Let me remind ALL & Sundry ,
it was those who were in the Stewardship of the shortest version of the Game who harnessed and honed
the Talents of Our Players in the
shortest format of the game into winning 2 Consecutive World Championships in this Format of the
Game .

Interestingly this format of the game
at that juncture was farmed out to
Stanford . As soon as the WICBC regained control of this version of the game . It fired those who harnessed & honed the talents of Our
Players in this format of the game .

The least I expected was that the WICBC would have at least have a Dinner for those Former Players who
were responsible for this version of
the Game . Once again the WICBC demonstrated its Plantation Mentality
Syndrome .

Its habitual practise of hiring persons from outside the Region rather than Our former Players also
demonstrates its Plantation Mentality
Syndrome .

The WICBC prefers to hire persons from outside the Region , pay them nice Salaries , and having them get
nice Tans . Those Persons have absolutely no affinity to Our Players. Yet the WICBC persist in this asinine Charade .

 
POINT 2019-08-19 20:29:48 

The WICBC for years has ignored the
fact that HARMONY is the Key to success
DISHARMONY only leads to Ruin .

There exists a Gulf between the WICBC
and Our Players ; and only the WICBC
can heal this gap ; it however requires
the WICBC to put aside its Plantation
Mentality Syndrome .

This is why the WICBC & the Regional
Cricket Boards ; needs in my opinion
to have at least One Former Player and one current Player in the WICBC
and in all the Regional Cricke Boards.

" A HOUSE DIVIDED WILL ALWAYS FALL "

Obviously if the WICBC & Our Players
were in sync , what happened in India
would have been avoided . If the WICBC refuses to stop being Emperors , West Indies Cricket , and our standing in the International Cricket
Arena is going to be perpetually at
or near the bottom of International
Cricket forever .

The WICBC & the Regional Cricket Boards must be totally restructured if the goal is to be fully competitive in the International Cricket Arena .

Let me remind all % Sundry the fact
that the WICBC is over 100 years old , and it has deliberately and bluntly
refused to change its Structure .

The Autocratic behaviour of the WICBC
does not inspire the Regional Governments to support the WICBC financially .

It would be remiss of me , if I stayed silent about those in the Region who claim to be Sports Journalists in the Region , but in actuality are Lapdogs of the WICBC .

It is their silence regarding the WICBC Autocratic behaviour that has
encouraged the WICBC to mistakenly
believe & think that it is on the
Right Path .

The WICBC & The Regional Cricket
Boards need to fully understand the
following adage :

" ONE HAND CANNOT CLAP "

This fact seems to have escaped all
those in the governance of West Indies Cricket ; and their Serfs in the Media .

History has taught us that anything that governments get involved with is screwed up. So WI cricket sharing a relationship with governments of the Caribbean will only convolute an already messy situation.

In reply to runout

It aint my idea that Governments must
run West Indies Cricket , I have never ever advocated that .

My belief is that the Governments must
financially aid the WICBC to some degree . However that in my opinion must only happen if or when the WICBC
and the Regional Cricket Boards
undergo very serious Structural Changes .

Let me reiterate the fact that the
WICBC & The Regional Cricket Boards
have been and continue to be suffering from Plantation Mentality
Syndrome .

The WICBC was founded over 100 years
ago by wealthy Land Owners , and Businessmen in the Region , who were
mainly of a different pigmentation than the current occupatants of the
WICBC .

Those persons viewed themselves as being above the average persons in the Region . While it is true that is
currently not the case currently ,
Those in the WICBC relish behaving like those who founded the WICBC .

It is this belief & behaviour that is
the basis of turmoil between the WICBC , while it is true that most of
the members of the WICBC may not be of the same pigmentation as the Founders of the WICBC , THEY excude
the same Plantation Mentality Syndrome .

It is this insufferable attitude that
causes Friction and Problems in West
Indies Cricket . Let me cite two
exceedingly glaring incidents , that
cannot ever be refuted .

The WICBC cancelled the last Tour to
India that was in progress . Leaving
its Host India with debt & dissappointment . I have absolutely no doubt that the WICBC did not escape Financial Responsibility for its highhanded actions . I seriously doubt that the WICBC can claim that it escaped this Incident without any
Financial penalty .

Look at how it treated its Former Players who were in charge of the
Shortest version of the game , that it farmed out to Stanford .

It was the Stewardship of those Former Players who were responsible for making Our Players win 2 Consecutive World Championships in the shortest version of the game .

I have not heard or read that the WICBC publicly thanked those former
Players for their Services . Once aagain the WICBC relished displaying
their PMS , Plantation Mentality Syndrome .

100 Plus years and the asinine mentality of the Worst International
Cricket Board in the Commonwealth bluntly refuses to change its Modus
Operandi .

THE WICBC IS RUNNING VERY FAST YET

IT FINDS ITSELF IN THE SAME PLACE .

In reply to Narper

The only solution to West Indies Cricket is for the WICBC to get an hiatus from the ICC for 2 years so that
there can be very serious Restructuring
in the WICBC & the Regional Cricket Boards .

Because of the continuous attitude & behaviour of the WICBC & the Regional
Cricket Boards WE must get to the Root of problems regarding West Indies Cricket .

The first of these problems is the
fact that the WICBC have a mistaken
belief that they are akin toLords and
Our Players are their Serfs .

To bridge this belief , The current Players must have representation in any restructuring of the WICBC ; so also be be former Great Players .

Perhaps by having Players & Former Players being on the WICBC & the Regional Cricket Boards would stem the Contempt & Animosity that those in the governance Cricket in the Region , have towards Our Players .

I expect the Regional Governments to
aid the WICBC Financially , so THEY also must have Representation on the
WICBC .

In essence there must exist Harmony
between Our Players & the WICBC & the
Regional Cricket Boards . Unless this
is done , WE will forever be wallowing at or near the Bottom of
International Cricket .

The onus is on the WICBC , and The Regional Cricket Boards to decide whether they want Progress or forever
be wallowing at or near the Bottom of
International Cricket .

FYI I did not nor have I ever insinuated
that Governments would be governing
Cricket . The point I am making is that
I expect Governments to help West Indies Cricket Financially .

In return of doing that I believe that
they must have representation in the
goverance of Cricket in the Region to report back to them how the money that is given to the WICBC is being spent .

It would be , in my opinion , asinine
to give the WICBC Taxpayers money and not get any accountability from the
WICBC .

You seem to think that the WICBC must
get money from the Regional Governments , and not give an accounting of how that money is spent
I cannot agree with your assessment .

Any Government in the Region , that decided to give the WICBC its Taxpayers money and not get an account of how thier money is spent
will quickly find itself voted out of
Office .

Here is a freaking fact that I
consistently and continuously make .

THE WICBC IS OVER 100 YEARS OLD ; AND

IN ALL THOSE YEARS IT HAS BLUNTLY

REFUSED TO CHANGE ITS ARCHAIC

STRUCTURE .

Obviously this means that WICBC was founded in the 20th. Century , and WE
are currently living in the 21st. Century .

Now this is a freaking Fact , it aint fiction ; nor a figment of my imagination . I have absolutely no doubt that unless or until the WICBC
and the Regional Cricket Boards undergo serious Changes . They would
be akin to attempting spinning a Top
in Mud .

I do not claim to be an Authority on
Boards , but plain old common sense
informs me that any Entity that is over 100 years old , and finds itself
at or near the bottom of International Cricket .

Facts are indeed Stubborn Things , whether WE like them or not .As long
as the WICBC & The Regional Cricket
Boards treat Our Players with contempt , We aint going to be successful in International Cricket .

 
POINT 2019-08-20 01:10:25 

The stark Freaking Truth is that the
WICBC has been and is Derelict in its
Responsibilities .

At the height of Our Players dominance
in International Cricket , 2 events
occured and the WICBC failed to react
because of its failure to recognize and
counter act these two events immediately .

The first was the decision by England
to limit the number of Overseas
Players from Playing Cricket in England , when Our Players were dominant in Cricket .

The salient Question is this :

WHAT DID THE WICBC DO AT THAT TIME

TO COUNTERACT THE DECISION OF THE

ENGLAND CRICKET BOARD ??????

About 10 years ago the WICBC decided
to have a Regional Cricket League . The point I am making is simply this;

THE WICBC FAILED TO UNDERSTAND

IMMEDIATELY THE SEVERITY OF THE

IMPACT THAT DECISION WOULD HAVE ON

OUR PLAYERS COMPETITIVENESS IN

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET.

The People in the WICBC sat on their
Asses and did absolutely Nothing , until about 10 years ago .

Then the ICC decided to change the
International Tour Schedule , no longer would Players play matches between the Test Matches .

The WICBC still refused to grasp the fact that those many matches were helpful in Our Players getting acclimatized to the weather & the Pitches .

I would like to believe that if they
were dilligent then , they would have
formed a Regional Cricket League so that Our Players would be Fit ; and
their Skills finely honed . So once again the Worst International Cricket
Board in the Commonwealth failed Our
Region .

I take solace in the fact that none of my Critics can refute what I have stated here . About 10 years ago it
dawned on the WICBC that it should have a Regional Cricket League .

I cite these undeniable facts to prove that the WICBC , has been and
is an abysmal Steward of West Indies Cricket .

 
POINT 2019-08-20 01:19:23 

What is truly sad is the fact that when Our Players and Teams dominated International Cricket , it would have been easy then to form a Regional League , because it would have got
Financial Support from Businesses .

SPONSORS LOVE WINNERS AND

OUR PLAYERS WERE WINNERS .

HISTORY INFORMS US THAT

THE WICBC DID NOTHING ,

WHEN OUR PLAYERS DOMINATED

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET .

I am awaiting Sensible Response from
the Supporters of the WICBC to provide
credible evidence to Refute what I have stated in these Posts are Lies .

Let me refine the gist of what I have stated for the WICBC'S Simpletons in
this Forum .

When England decided to limit the
Number of Players who were allowed to
Play cricket in England ; Did the WICBC decide to immediately form a Regional Cricket League ?????

When the ICC decided to eliminate the Matches that were played between the Test Matches ; Did the WICBC immediately form a Regional Cricket
League ?????

We are where We currently are mainly due to the fact that when the above
happened ; the Almighty WICBC did not
fully understand the severity of the impact , these two decisions would have on Our Players Competitiveness in International Cricket .

WE are still suffering from those 2 impacts that I have cited above. Our
current Standing in International Cricket is concrete evidence of this
Fact .

These two facts that I have cited cannot be wished away , nor are they
illusions . It would be nice if the
WICBC issue an Apology to the Region , but I doubt that it will ever do that due to their PMS , PLANTATION
MENTALITY SYNDROME .

years plus Structure or their insufferable Arrogance .

Progress in West Indies Cricket will
only be attained if & when the WICBC
and the Regional Cricket Boards come to the realization that there Must be
total Harmony between ALL Cricket Boards and Our Players .

Let me once again state that hiring Foreigners who have no affinity with
Our Players must end . In the Region
there are competent Former Players
who can do the Job .

Their Stewardship of Our Players in the shortest format of the game is
tangible proof of that fact .

In the Good Book WE are admonished not

means that in any new Structures in
in the governance of West Indies Cricket , simply cannot have Past &
current Members of the WICBC & the
Regional Cricket Boards in it .

Why , because They have been at the
governance of West Indies Cricket for
a very long time , and have bluntly refused to change its over 100 years old Structure .

So why do You and Others believe that
they would adhere to the Principles
of the New Structure ?????

I seriously doubt that would happen ,
rather my belief is that THEY would
seek to sabotage the new Structure so that they can once again go back to their Rabid Plantation Mentality Syndrome .

The Question is this :

WHY SHOULD WE PUT BACK IN OFFICE THE

SAME GANG THAT GO US TO WHERE OUR

TEAMS CURRENTLY ARE IN INTERNATIONAL

CRICKET ??????

Doing that makes absolutely no sense .BTW , in the Region WE need to have
Sports Reporters who would be unafraid to be critical of Persons in
these New Structures .

For many years those Frauds in the
Region who claim to be Sports Journalists have been the Serfs of the WICBC . THEY also must bear some
responsibility for encouraging those
in the WICBC to be dictatorial .

Cite any Sports Journalist in the Region who has consistently criticized the Stewardship of the
Worst Interational Cricket Board in
the Commonwealth , aka the WICBC .

The Sports Media in the Region cannot
and should not be absolved from their
decision to perpetually state that the WICBC is always Right in its decisions .

BTW HOW MANY SPORTS JOURNALISTS IN

THE REGION HAVE PUBLICLY ENQUIRED

ABOUT THE PHANTOM WEHBY REPORT ?????

PLEASE NAME ME ONE ; AND WHAT HE/SHE

STATED .

In reply to BC

Since January 2003 , when I joined this Forum , I have continuously criticized
those in the governance of West Indies
Cricket . Their Stewardship speaks for
itsef .

The fact is that most of their Stooges
in the Media always Back those in the
Governance of Cricket in the Region .
Obviously this has encouraged those in the governance of Cricket in the
Region to flout all the principles of
Good Governance .

One glaring unforgiveable instance
was the fact that the WICBC pulled the plug of Our Teams Tour to India
some years ago .

What was glaring , is the freaking fact that the WICBC CANCELLED that Tour which was in progress . The WICBC made absolutely no attempt to
work things out so that the Tour could continue .

THE WICBC CANCELLED THE TOUR , WITH

ABSOLUTELY NO CONSIDERATION TO THE

FACT THAT THIS WAS AN EMBARRASSMENT

TO BCCI , WHO LOST MONEY .


NO CONSIDERATION WAS GIVEN TO THE

FACT THAT TICKETS WERE BOUGHT BY

CRICKET FANS ; PEOPLE HOTEL ROOMS

WERE BOOKED ; VENDORS HAD BOUGHT

STUFF TO SELL AT THE VARIOUS CRICKET

STADIA .

I seriously doubt that all the above
were considered when the WICBC with its PLANTATION MENTALITY SYNDROME ever considered what I have cited above before pulling the Plug on the
Tour .

WE may never ever know , but I have
absolutely no doubt , that the WICBC
had to compensate the BCCI Financially ; for its Crass Stupidity.

This is the Entity many in this Forum
will have people believe that the WICBC is among the best run Cricket
Boards in the Commonwealth . Most of
those in the Region who claim to be
Sports Journalists would also unhesitantly state that the WICBC is
a very well run Cricket Board .

The problem is that those with power & influence in the Media are staunch
Supporters of the Worst International
Cricket Board in the Commonwealth , the WICBC .

I have never read or heard any criticism of the WICBC in the Regional Media . They are prepared to
perpetually back the WICBC . This obviously empowers the WICBC to not
only embarrass itself but also the Region.

A number of former players prepared themselves for coaching, Rohan and Robert did, we are witnessing other like Walsh, Ambrose, Simmons, Gibson, Stephenson, Benjamin and many others doing the same.
The elder statesman like Gary, roles are to speak to a group going in to a series, some of them need assistant when standing.

YOU & Others are well aware of the
the fact that it was their Stewardship that enabled Our Players
to win 2 consecutive World Championships in this version of the
game .

PLAYERS HAD ANY BLASTED LEVEL

SUCCESSFULLY IMPART THEIR KNOWLEDGE &

EXPERIENCES TO OUR PLAYERS IN THIS

FORMAT OF THE GAME .

Most West Indies Cricket fans are fully aware of the fact that they
transformed Our Players in this format of the game to be fully succesful in this version of the game.

THIS IS A FREAKING FACT NOT FICTION.
