NOT EVEN AN ABOUT-TURN can make this bird do an about-face.
West Indies Cricket Board presidential candidate Joel ‘Big Bird” Garner isn’t about to start thinking negatively, not even after losing the support of the Jamaica Cricket Association.
Garner has initially been endorsed for next month’s WICB general election by the directors of the Jamaican association, but that was overturned by the full membership on Tuesday.
The former star says his mind is still on finding ways to save the WICB from possible bankruptcy.
“There is still the situation where the WICB is facing a US$42-million lawsuit. That still has to be dealt with. In essence, we are looking at a situation where the WICB could be bankrupt in a matter of months, and that is the most imporant thing to be handled right now.”
