as a business owner would you save 35,00 x 9 to lose millions in profit or 65 million in damages rev?

I agree with Rev,, they have a problem with their Union not the Board
they should call for new elections fix their internal problem

* If the Rev owned WI cricket he would recognize that his greatest asset are his players and treat them with respect and compensate them accordingly.
* The folks running WI cricket today are not qualified to run a mauby shop----they are all only interested in the perks and their respective positions.
* Mistakes were made by all----WICB/WIPA/Players.
* I maintain that the players were dead wrong to strike in the middle of the series.

* India has suspended all bilateral tours with the West Indies.
* Australia has doubts about touring the WI next year.
* What the players did was dead wrong---striking in the middle of a tour.
* THERE MUST BE CONSEQUENCES.

Rev,
Cause and effect and then now consequences.
The players did not cause this and had Shiv been in this tour party he would have supported and your stance would be different.
Therefore I question the credibility and fabric of your position.

What mistakes did the players make apart from perhaps not quitting before the tour?
The fact they did not quit showed goodwill on their part...no?

West Indies threaten to pullout of first PakvAus Test match in Dubai.
Re: **** WICB Emergency Meeting **** - Rev Al - 10-21-2014
OK! Let us await the results of the WICB meeting today.
I have already made my point.
It was wrong for the players to quit in the middle of the Indian series.
Let's see how this travesty plays out.

You have made a statement but you have not substantiated that statement. You have said they. the players, should not have pulled out not recognising that is not the cause of the problem rather the effect.
We are all discussing based on information in the public domain and I put it to you, had Shiv been on this tour you would have a different view.
