#ZCBOARD MUST GO

[TapsC]

Zim football team been kicked out of the regional tournament as well after they refysed to host the tournament. Kirsty Coventry openly approved this as well. She is really struggling.

Encore-
It’s because the cricket gets worse by the month. Where are we going under these guys? They have no plans that they can stick to for more than a week. Everything is a mess and it will never ever change under them.
Their plan to save money is not to play cricket. It’s pure genius.

So are the alternative is better, to kill cricket in Zimbabwe altogether? That's an absurd and stupid point of view... If Zim is expelled, there is NO getting back test/full member status, not for decades at least

[Googly]

Taps she tweeted that hosting it cost 2m and the fine was 200k for not hosting it “do the math” was what she said.
I don’t know much about soccer or the thievery there.

So you’re happy to let it carry on as is? We don’t have proper FC, club, school or age group cricket and our national side is getting raped almost every game yet we have 9 million a year? SRC can’t turn a blind eye to this. It has to change. Are you hoping they will reform?
Are you hoping good players miraculously come back?
Please tell me what you wish for.

Without a doubt its a pat on the back.
Who's been benefiting from cricket?? 25 people and 20of them are admin
ZC has destroyed cricket, they hav destroyed businesses and jobs by not paying for their accommodation or food or travel or rent etc...

Let cricket carry on???
How about this let ZC kowtow to its' parent body SRC in order for cricket to continue-let Muks offer to allow the interim board become the new board by proper election. Just so that cricket continues.......yo don't see that coming out of ZC moth because they have never cared about cricket only about the money it brings n to their purse strings.

Take zanu-pf best we got rid off them or even had a joinGNU(hold on we did and shit worked!)

I saw this. The problem is that there was no diplomacy. They just simply walked away and proudly said " it doesnt make sense for us" which she was 100% right. Guys this is African politics. There is no science to it. There is no text book for it. Things dont work the same. You dont just simply walk away from situations or put your foot down without knowing you will take the fall the reaction that follows.

As for cricket I feel like a lot of the let it die anyway brigade get fed this anger from players like Raza BT and co who are already in their mid 30s and enjoyed at least a decade of cricket. They are fine. They have had great careers. What about the Mavutas and Musakandas? What about the youngsterswho have dreamt all their life of representing Zimbabwe? What about the youngsters who have nothing besides cricket like Blesing Muzarabani had before his rise? The hundreds of people who will be jobless and dont have a plan B in a sinking economy?

This decision probably has a domino effect that afftects thousands of people. Raza is rich, he plays t20s, he will be fine. Mire is an Australian citizen as well, he will be fine. The likes of BT and Jarvis did not see anything wrong getting paid a years salary in advance for them to come back by the same corrupt board.

This issue has clearly become too personal for too many people. Googly I know these guys are horrible but please please lets not kill thousands of dreams banking on guys who have a very personal agenda against these guys. Emotional decisions will place us in the dustbins of history.

The SRC does not have money to run the game even at club level. They are broke as an organization. Our players are used to big money. We will die.

In fact I think somebody's ego is going to see him use his own personal money to fight ZC. Guys Titan Law is busy posting SRC information. Yet they requested ZC to be liquidated not so long ago. The conflict of interest here is so obvious. Nobody has been arrested yet. The SRC didnt even have a disciplinary hearing for ZC like what normaly happens. This is so ridiculous. The ICC are not stupid.

I agree with Taps... There's only 2 binary options on the table, either the board is reinstated and cricket continues even though it's a mess but it's a mess that can be sorted out while cricked is still played and players have a job... Or the ICC bans Zim and that is it, no more meaningful cricket, the sport as we know it dies, no franchise cricket, no international or TV exposure, no kids wanting to play,no funding, no forum, no interest, no Chevrons, no nothing... And there's no coming back from that, regardless of having the best board members in the world in place

I'm sick of this bullshit.

We have been fed nothing by no one. We are seeing Mukhulani and his board for what they are and demanding the right change.

What about the players who have been playing for those decades and not received payments? What about the guys who get paid $10 a day under the current board? What about the players who Jason Gillespie had to feed because ZC could not afford bread for their sandwiches? What about the fact that Mukhulani has expressly said that ZC is not responsible for the running of cricket in the country or that he has much better things to do than cricket?

You claim to care for these youngsters but these youngsters do not have a future under a Mukhulani board. You point out Raza and BT, but what about Hammy and Chigs. Stealing a living and taking a youngsters spot whilst playing horrible cricket.

You talk like you care, yet ZC has been poorly run for decades. All the money we get from ICC has been stolen by this board and none of it goes to the youngsters that you so much care for. That is why a lot of them go overseas, because they do not get looked after or cared for.

What life do these youngsters have under this board? They will play the odd game, get whipped because they cannot train or have the equipment to, then three months later they will still be asking for their salary because ZC spent on a new TV for Mukhulanis dogs cousin.

Take this fucking bullshit and shove it. It's interesting too that certain members of this forum have only appeared now.

no more meaningful cricket, the sport as we know it dies, no franchise cricket, no international or TV exposure, no kids wanting to play,no funding, no forum, no interest, no Chevrons, no nothing...

Not like half of those things exist anyway. We don't have reasonable franchise cricket. We don't have international or TV exposure (remember Afghanistan pulled out of a tour because ZC refused to fund a youtube stream), kids already do not want to play (remember ZC also quashed a lot of kids dreams by scrapping Rising Stars because of personal vendettas), all the funding is stolen, interest is already low, Chevrons are a shit show....

[SpitfiresKent]

Maybe the only way to fix cricket is to let it die. Once the ICC money has dried up, all of the people who are involved in cricket only for the pay cheque will bugger off and people who genuinely care about the game can start the rebuilding process.

^This.

Desperate times call for desperate measures!

All allegations and misinformation again. You are a typical example of a complainer. you know the ICC is monitoring funds with a hawkeye now? Do you know how they are distributing money now? Do you have proof of these allegations so that we can submit them to the police and then we can move forward. Mlotshwa clearly has the might of the state behind him but he cant arrest anybody. This for me shows they have 0 evidence from 2015 to Now.

Just remember when this becomes a ZC MEMORIES forum I will be here to remind all the "let it die" brigade you burnt a house down trying to kill a snake. None of you even tried to beat them in an election and guess what I could bet 100USD on paypal that in 3 years time when we are failing to raise money to even have a domestic league or fly to namibia or nigeria for some games you will be the FIRST person complaining about how the ICC let us down and why corporate sponsors are not helping

You guys dont get it. This is a win-win situation for ICC board members. If Mukuhlani wins they will have a loyal dog doing as they please. If we get expelled the broke/nagging pest of a cousin that is ZC will be gone for good.
