Letter: The headline of the century

Published on Saturday, May 5, 2007 Email To Friend    Print Version

Dear Sir:

No fallout yet over CWC finale confusion', the Barbados Advocate, Friday 4th May 2007. This has to be the headline of the century.

Type ‘Barbados Closing Ceremony’ into Google News and you will see what a ridiculous conclusion this is on the debacle that took place at Kensington Oval last Saturday.

Read what the foreign media across the globe has said about the closing minutes of the CWC final.

Quite how many times the words Shambolic, Fiasco, Shambles and other derogatory descriptions are repeated, perhaps we will never know.

As always the organisers seem to be blaming everyone but themselves, and at least two major publications, The Gulf Times and Times of India, with between them, tens of millions of readers have quoted ‘The organisers refused to comment on the huge expenses’.

REFUSED!

How can they refuse to comment on the misuse of nearly $2 million of taxpayers monies?
