I, Christopher Henry Gayle, am making this statement so that all my friends, fans and followers who continue to wonder why I am not being picked for the West Indies team despite being fit, available and in form will know the truth considering the many rumours and statements that have been made as it relates to this issue. Until now, I have kept my silence, but I believe that the time has come for you to all know what I plan to do about this extremely frustrating and humiliating situation.

Yep, the WICB have successfully driven Gayle away from WI cricket....
He will now probably concentrate on playing in domestic 20/20 tournaments around the world, starting with Sri Lanka this summer, and then on to Australia at the end of the year. He can earn more playing these 20/20 tournaments than in playing for the Windies.
The WICB have committed the cardinal mistake of thinking that Gayle needs the WI more than vice versa, when the converse is the real state of affairs....

I have my concerns with gayle. I did not see him as a good captain. he selected too many useless yardies on the side when he had the chance. and we must remember that he did resign and was asked to remain by Hunte.
but Gyale can never be the villain of the pice when the wicb is there. there can be noting more awful than the wicb now in the hands of the contemptible blac elites. as gayle speaks here the whole picture fills out disgustingly...
now yu can see the fullness of the impressions of themselves deh have already generated...Lloyd, Garner, Hunte, Hillaire, and there are people like Richardson, Howard, Gibbo, Beckles. jesus h crist...dat wicb is a den of crap...the most awful smelling crap.
Clive lloyd is the most disappointing figure of all. we used to hate dat skunt in Titty. I dont know of any Titty who liked him. I tried hard. I came on his band wagon and left and came back and left and came back....
I thoughy Lloyd wud prove out to be greater than the sum of his parts, that he wud be idological like Worrell and make a difference in the westindies in that way. but he is no Walter Rodney or Van Sertima, Lloyd is an elitist prick who side swith the staus quo against the people.
lawd help westindies cricket. just about all the legends are idiots. deh have little contribution to make to the postive development of westidies cricket. there is not one of them out there backing the correct program ....or a positive program, fighting for it, using their prestige to push proper development of the game in the region

all the legends do while westindies cricket burns is look for more prestige and position in the westindies. most of them are looking for knighthoods, to bow down on 1 knee to the queen.
wesley hall must be truly disppointed he has not been recommended for one as yet. he has done everything in his power and he is not there yet. and its getting late for him.
and wat about Lloyd? does he even have an OBE by now? dat must be galling!
dat was wat Rasta Viv did. now there is is Sir Gordon Grenidge is it..or did I hear wrong
even Desmond Haynes turned out to be a sellout.
of the legends ony 2 remain in my esteem...Andy Roberts and Curtley Ambrose...2 . Ambrose is the perfect sardonic, attitude, contemptuous of things in general. he goes about his own business and dats that. let the world roll as it wishes....
and Roberts is a morose sort, laffed infrequently when I knew him but he iseemed up front, straight as an arrow, who appeared to work honestly for westindies cricket when he was involved.
to whom does westindies cricket turn for leadership when everybody involved or in line for involebement are compromised?

Ah well! I made my initial comments on this topic in my little corner on the forum. Suffice to say that I am so disenchanted by all of this that in tribute to Gayle I will refrain from comment but stick to a fact: Having checked the records I note that Chris was dismissed 'run out' in his first test match for West Indies - the only ever time he lost his wicket in that manner.
And now by his own words we see that he feels he has been 'run out' of West Indies cricket! Isn't it ironic?. What a wasteful shame! All the best Chris and thanks for the memories.
Respec' Always

Gayles developing intellect is very interesting. the way he speaks in that explanation to hsi fans is much more advanced than when he lashed out at the rest of the westindies over what he saw as thiefing umpiring aimed at jamaica.
if gayles intellectual development continues along these lines he shud in quick enuff time arrive at a Worrel-like understanding of his social reality and no doubt a general attitude to match.
the wicb is a cancer on a cancer, an indication now as clear as day of the ultimate the extinction or general decline, or practical in-utility of the westindian blac comunity, from guyana down south to jamaica up north.
what do blac people in the westindies need to develop?
is this evident in the leadership of the wicb?
and if it is not and the wicb represents the leading blac classes, it must be assumed that if the wicb rampage has been allowed to continue then the more powerful overall blac leadership agrees with what is happening.
there is then as evidenced by wicb incompetence not a spark of what is required for blac westindian progress in and among the westindian leadership classes for they are the original cancer that spawned the current wicb from 1995 to now.
it also establishes that nothing will change, that what is required for blac westindian progress is ensconced in the peoples interest only, and that depsite this act the people are unawae of this truth and responsibility of theirs, to get up and revolutionaise the socitey in their own interest. and if they cant what we are left with in the region as active social force is west-Indian capitalist drive, which is about to subsume black westindian social inertia.
