Ottis Gibson: I was fired

Quote:Former West Indies coach Ottis Gibson, who parted company with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) under controversial circumstances in August, says the board fired him.

Gibson, speaking for the first time since the sudden development, dismissed the WICB statement that they mutually agreed to end their association.

The announcement of Gibson’s departure came on the eve of the One-Day International series with Bangladesh.

Gibson, who took up the post in January 2010 after a spell as England's bowling coach, says he was shocked when WICB president Whycliffe ‘Dave’ Cameron fired him over the phone.

Gibson says Cameron told him that players had lost confidence in him.

Bush,

Not in a Million years.

Sammy was terribly lucky to have represented Windies inTests as many times as he did.

A bit part player and still is.

looking for personal justification and some form of exoneration for his sins by piling on the entity that was once for him the teat he sucked on to live, and which entity he supported fully,unreservedly, in all its iniquity, during his time at that nipple.
