Dangling the carrot
View(s):DANGLING THE CARROT
During the last elected cricket body he played a pivotal role with figures. Besides that he also acted as match maker. When the most powerful secy crossed path with him he joined the hospital President and continued his thing. Then when it came to the election he and his hospital friend sought the assistance legend’s son (So much so the legend’s son calls the figure man uncle) and saw to that the interim thing was set up. In the aftermath he brought the age old enemies together to form a union and thwart the attempts of the former secy and his match winning brother. Soon the hospital man was put in charge of the international arm of that sport and made one of the pillars.
However the hospital man did not like what was going around him and decided to put up shutters. Now the figure man, who recently even cooked some fictitious figures and sold it to the public with huge advertisements, is on a mission to patch up differences.
He even had dangled a carrot in front of the hospital man. “If so and so is kicked upstairs to take up the big chair, you will be next in line”. Can he sell this bat?
VAIN ATTEMPT
Pri — leader of the oval-ball was a player of repute. Recently he briefed the Anto high priest to get rid of the coach as they lost matches. He threatened to withdraw all support.

TOUR MANIA

Now he has set his eyes on a tour Down Under with a junior team who is to play a series of matches there. Observers say that he has this mania to go on tours.

TO SIT ON THE OFFICIAL CHAIR
There is this push to put someone in front at the AGM of this sports body in order to see that he sits on the official chair. This was quite evident when this official was called to give away awards when a foreign team pulled off a win against the local side. The present president plans to step down. It is said that this person is being groomed to take his place instead.
