BBC NEWS 20 April 2021: There’s been a massive backlash against plans by some of the world’s biggest football clubs to start a new European Super League (ESL).

Twelve clubs have signed up – six of them from the English Premier League.
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham, have joined AC Milan, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Inter Milan, Juventus and Real Madrid. Continue reading
A SHINING LIFE – By Dave Martins
Two days ago, out of the blue, I had an awful experience with the sudden death of a friend here, Colin Ming, in a traffic accident (he was on a motorbike) that just shattered me. Why I’m not really sure. We were not boyhood companions, but perhaps because our friendship goes back to those times, many years ago, when the Tradewinds trips to Guyana began, and my career as a musician was building, and Colin’s love for the songs was a kind of glue, always there between us as is our love for Guyana.

William Fogarty Store. Georgetown Guyana
In more recent times, I have been approached by younger citizens seeking information about some matter or happening of the past. While there are books with some of Guyana’s history, there is certainly not enough.
For example, while there is a comprehensive book on the history of Theatre in Guyana by Frank Thomasson, it does not mention that at Guyana National Drama Festivals and the Sugar Estates Drama Festivals of the past, never had adjudicators who were involved with any of the groups which they had to adjudicate.

COOLIDGE – Action-packed, mind-boggling, entertaining, nerve-jangling and tension-filled are all adjectives that can be used to describe the return of international cricket to the Caribbean after a one-year hiatus because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an electrifying chase of a modest target of 132, West Indies captain Kieron Pollard defied a hat-trick from leg-spinner Akila Dhanajaya and became only the third batsman to hit six sixes in an over in …

WORLD RECORD: Run Chase Highlights! | Sarwan & Chanderpaul Star as Windies Chase 418 v Australia 2003
Comment: Sajjo Lohar Alvarez – I remember this amazing victory. When Lara got out I thought we had no chance, but then the under rated heroes Sarwan and Chanderpaul battled back ( even though McGrath tried his best to shake up Sarwan in that famous fight) and another young talent Omari Banks finished it off. WI have a knack for amazing wins – this one in a test match, 2004 champions trophy final in ODI, and 2012 & 2016 T20 WC finals in T20.

Sonny Ramadhin in action
By NEWSROOM By Reza Abasali of Trinidad and Tobago
“The prince of slow bowlers” – Sir Len Hutton
To appreciate this royal description of Sonny Ramadhin by Sir Len Hutton, one must understand the background of Len Hutton.
Sir Len (1916-1990) was one of the greatest ever batsmen in international cricket. Between 1937 to 1955, he played 79 Tests, amassed 6,971 runs with 19 hundreds at an average of 56.7 per innings.
He scored over 40,000 First-Class runs and hit 129 centuries. Hutton first encountered the wily spinner from Trinidad on the West Indies tour of England in the summer of 1950. Continue reading →
