Croft:Windies cricket needs Egypt-like revolution

[WIndiesFans.com]

“A little revolution, now and then, is a healthy thing; do you not think?”  Now, if you saw the same game that I did when West Indies played South Africa, I am  very sure that you will agree that the time is now upon us for a very real revolution in West Indies cricket.  I will not even want to wait to the end of ICC Cricket World Cup 2011. West Indies are so damned desperately poor that something must be done, not tomorrow, but now, to change this!!!

What you guys think about this article? I think Croft made some valid points... I like this part...not to mentioned the part he beat up on Gibbo

Real West Indies cricket supporters should, like Tunisia and Egypt, start a revolution now, to remove the entire incompetent administration and players who represent us; make up numbers; but have no idea as to what is required. We must get rid of this continuous, entire façade of failure and uselessness.

On the other hand, if you like what we have, then, like the sheep that most of you have been so far, who only bleat, bray and make useless noises, but do nothing to change this, then accept it like always. If you like the representation that you are getting; have gotten for so long; do nothing. However, do not think of complaining ever again, as, obviously, as they say in these parts; “You really like it so.”

we need more writers like Crofty

Let me know where you stand according to Croft's description above

precisely! once in a while googley right!

I was wondering why:

we need more writers like Crofty

that man is an arse generally, backward and unsophisticated....and emotionally insecure which is hardly unusual for he is a westindian black man. such as we reek of insecurity...as a rule

why croftie have to rate his career to validate his criticism of Gibson, really deligitimising his critique?

we all know the story and the provenances/stats involved. for the author to list them is being redundant while exposing his own weakness about himself, taxing the readers patience and reminding them of any concern they may have with Croftys own personality.

crofty hurts himself by coupling himself with Gibson in negative commentary which is not what he wanted to do at all...or what he shud have done. he shud have left Gibbo to swing in the wind by himself.

Croft is done as a player so we doh have to contend with as an active personality anymore. but he insinuates himself where he shud not so we remember the berk croft and things like his South Africa trip(s) and other crap he was always involved in.

oh well.

He made some good points in this article... I guess we will not hear from the sheeps

Maps...Croft was man enough to say it like it is.. How many writers do you know will come out and write something like this? Why are you attacking croft suh for? You know he is more of a Trini than you. The bit on Gibbo was good too

answer the man, are you a Real West Indies cricket supporter or a sheep?

well yu bias wen it comes to gibbo so yuh love it when he get wood. not dat Gibbo does not deserve the wood but it helps accuracy when we see who givin' it and who laffin'

croft is an ass and this article does not detract from dat fact, only makes it clearer, even if he scores agood point on gibbo and the breakdown of all winning class relative to the westindies team.

croftie is way too hard on the players he mentions Sammy, Bravo. wat the hell he expect Bravo to have said in the circumstances fuh example?

and from Sammy who shud not even be in the side! he could have refused the captaincy knowing he is not good enough and dat his inclusion would cause problems. it would have been really hard for him to do so. but he shud have refused it knowing that in the end he would pay a price far greater than any had he refused skunt Hunte.

but thats his cross and he will pay in the end for accepting that load. in the circumstances he can say no different than he has said all along. its up to croft to analysie and give us insight into this situation with a view as to how it can be cleaned-up, and how suchmust be avoided in future

and who is to rebel in-as-much as he..croftie.. recommends revolution? the players...he westindian people? how is it to take place...how can it take place in the circumstances etc. allyuh show me a plan flowing out of all croft said here.

blowhard as usual. allyuh like it only because one ah allyuh face targets attract croft darts. but dat is all dats in here. its weal article full of hot air. and I ent interestd in dat from croft. all the hurt andpersonal achievements he list in here have not led to a clear head and invcisive pen. all we get is angry, vengeful noise.

I wish croft would or could get over his obvious emotional problems.

he can seek help because he has the money to do so. all for the purpose of being a mature and positive personality who would write much better for himself and for us...for the westindies!

that the guardian publishes croft as he writes is deliberate policy, to help dumbdown the westindies.

thats also why croft gets work all over the place...especially because he is an idiot and does not reflect much good about westindians, and does not do much to help the development of the region where his work intersects with the epople and relative opinion everwhere.

if croftie wrote well, in the interest of westindians and the westindies, he would not get exposure in the guardian or any of the established publication. he would have to make his own publication to get his ideas across.

nothing wrong there. if ryan naraine can do it so can croft!

How am I bias when it comes to Gibbo...? Man, tell me which is a LIE that Croft wrote about him? We are so easy on our own players, countrymen, etc that we just accept mediocrity. Now mediocrity is part of the culture. You think I'm lying ? Explain to me why we have players such as Sammy, Smith, Bravo et al cementing their place on this team?

I just hear the coach said they can't be complacent... is Gibson for real? Tell me or ask your GREAT coach what his team has done lately so they can't afford to be complacent now...
