@Halliwell

nah that video was insulting. The dude said we are going to bowl fast with no plan and try to hit every ball for six.............as bad as mark nicholas' short of brains comment, it genuinely is

There was a feature on BBC Five Live Sport Extra this week, narrated by Carlos RTN. The thinking behind the victory charge in 2016 was so detailed, so carefully planned, that Mark Nicholas’ comment could have only come from a place of concentrated internalised prejudice and superiority…I wonder what Macco really thought of that guy

@Halliwell

tellin yuh boy............but he's english so it doesn't surprise me at all.


concentrated internalised prejudice and superiority…I wonder what Macco really thought of that guy

blasted racism. when espn cricinfo had the post match analysis, Raunak Kapoor, the host stated the west indians out-thought England at every point in the game and were out-skilled as well. Nick Knight in response said its not what he'd expect from an english side.....struggling to say england were dominated except for the first four overs of their innings

@Jumpstart

When your own West Indians ( like yourself) hurling insults at Sammy and the boys , for those outside that suggests open season for all.


Sammy and the Guys are already motivated by the underdog talk.

@Jumpstart

Bro think yuh tekkin dis ting way too serious...maybe yuh dnt know or understand de henglish psyche an humour......dat jackass is an irrelevance ...i doubt if he could name de Henglish team who played against us....as fuh Nicholas could be he's one of these ppl that doesn't see race once ur performing well fuh him like in the case of Macca fuh Hampshire...definitely found him very patronising towards us though!

@CCW

as fuh Nicholas could be he's one of these ppl that doesn't see race once ur performing well fuh him like in the case of Macca fuh Hampshire...definitely found him very patronising towards us though!

dais why he was writing articles on the lost series of the 70s, a full strength south africa versus the West indies in 1976 with only three lines dedicated to the crime against humanity(as classified by the UN) that caused their isolation in the first place.

But the South Africans were in isolation. Apartheid broke hearts in ways that can never be fully understood. If Basil D'Oliveira were still with us, he could explain better than I.

if yuh comfortable defending this then i cyah help yuh
