Catching a glimpse at Hunte's age, plus bearing in mind all the history and all the baggage that accompanies his association with the post, the venerable :evil: :evil: Robert Mugabe springs to mind for some reason. Someone pass me the sick bucket! while I abstain. How many years will the winner be in role?

Well i'm hoping we see change today, it's not the change i was rooting for as i made it clear that Lloyd was the man for the job, but we just have to hope that if Cameron gets the gig he will want to leave his own mark on Caribbean cricket and endeavour to be innovative in an effort to move us to the next level instead of just carrying on with the same policies of the status quo.

Last week it seemed like Cameron had it in the bag, but as the days have gone on some people aren't so sure he's gonna win, right now i'd say it's 50-50, Cameron does have a good chance though.

Ah wel! If, sh1t & wings come to mind. WICB Annual General Meeting today, AFRO hoping for change ... while howzdat contends that whatever the outcome it will be a miracle it we doan en' up wid a SNAFU again!

Life has surely changed in the region! Once upon a time meh late mama (Goddess rest her soul) would a buy a enamel cup for allwe drink from! Allyuh see dat big ass 'schooner' dat pon top the blue bapkin :?: Lawd, it look like it been through a few wars. Drink-up man!

Julian Hunte, "would describe his tenure as 'reasonably successful' ... adding stability to West Indies cricket".

Cameron, "you getting a personality ..able to engage a personaility that will be able to engage persons at all levels"

So far, one add one = dat we are promised a stable cult (howzdat's views and NOT that of the site, the wicb nor the characters ah mean personalities battling for the prize!)

Howzdat, don't get me wrong drastic change is probably unlikely, but put it this way, Cameron might be a whole lot easier to push in the right direction than the last mob were thats for sure!! :D .
