I have heard that Omar Khan, T&T Manager has been chosen by the WIB as the new WI Team Manager. Omar has several years of experience as T&T Manager but was replaced by the Lequay Administration for reasons including conduct unbecoming! Omar is an active member of the Deryck Murray Team and was reinstated when they took control of the T&T Board.
The last Regional Manager that got the job, Tony Howard, made no impact and I am of the view that nothing will change under Omar. This is not Omar's first attempt at this job, but the conditions suit him better this time around.
What is clear is that Deryck Murray is getting his way - first Larry Gomes (who has not been involved in Regional Coaching) gets the U19 job, now Omar. While this is happening, they have removed Kumar Rampat as Territorial Development Officer, a move that was on the cards once team Murray won the TTCB elections. Kumar is one of the best and brightest Cricket Development personnel in the Region and has been badly treated by the TTCB.
I hope the rest of the region sees and understand what is going on here.

What is going on here is something called Change. It is clearly evident that people in this region have a problem with change, especially if its a Trini.
one point to note, there must be something right the trinis are doing because as of right now they are the most successful team/management in the region for the past 5 years. If the rest in the region can be continually recylced and accomplish nothing but failure , tell me why Mr Khan doesnt deserve a shot?
West Indians have a serious problem with change and all the forms in which it presents itself. This is not 1980 ok? Its 2008.
