Spare a thought for Johnson Charles

They rather open with Roston Chase than pick you.

Didn't play a single match. Not even against Italy when already qualified for the Super 8’s as top of the group.

Dont believe he even got on the field as a sub.

The unanimous winner of the Narsingh Deonarine Award.

He was passenger on board to get a winners medal by chance to hang on his stadium stands. The replica of course.

@imusic

he got a free ride to India. He had a good long career though.

Johnson Charles got some player pay just to carry Sammy's bags for him.


A real waste of a pick. Have to blame the Selector for this mistake.

genuinely I feel for him he has always carried himself with dignity and was a much better player than Sammy

His treatment during this tournament has been diabolical, then to top it Sammy and Hope opened with the underperforming Chase , that was areal slap in the face


Walkgood Johnson Charles you did your best with the minimum of fuss

Yes and if he had played him and he failed you all will be all over the board about him selecting his homie cost us the game.


Man quit with the crap. He made the right move. Hope batted too slow.and cost us 220.
