Ottis Gibson :Went to the Optician - ketchim - 04-08-2014
and had his Focus aligned :
dunno IF was Retina shift repair or Myopia ( short sightedness )
[size=12pt]Gibson shifts focus to 2015 World Cup[/size]
West Indies coach Ottis Gibson wants his team to immediately shift gears towards the 50-over
World Cup in Australia and New Zealand next year !
Opiss was Optometristic that his team could put forth a formidable charge at another global
tournament, and has urged his troops to ride the wave of their impressive
T20 form over the past few months. :-[

"I've been speaking to Richard Pybus (Director of Cricket) about getting together a core group of
players to target the 50-over World Cup :
getting some fitness done and making sure those guys are at the peak of their fitness,"
Re: Ottis Gibson :Went to the Optician - ketchim - 04-08-2014
West Indies have not won the World Cup since the first two tournaments held :
back in 1975 and 1979 !
Unfortunately for Opisss there were NO fitness training back in 75 and '79 :-[

WI needs to get rid of Gibson and get someone who actually had success as a player and someone who can have a positive influence on the team as a whole. Someone like Clive Lloyd or M. Holding.
What has Gibson contribute to WI cricket as a former player or as a coach ?
I still can't understand why Chanderpaul isn't in the team.
He is our best batsman and he should open the batting with Gayle.
Furthermore Sarwan should have a place in the starting 11 no questions asked.
The playing 11 once fit should be Gayle, Chanderpaul, Samuels, Sarwan, Dwayne Bravo,
Pollard, Ramdin, Sammy, Roach, Narine, Rampaul.

God helps people who help themselfs Gibson should share that with his captain and team,
every post here is calling for change, this is the voice of the WI people
yet still wicb goes on as if there is no problem.
It looks like wi cricket was highjacked.

Josiah M. Philip on (April 8, 2014, 12:15 GMT)probably another group stage exit will wake up the administration :
