Tony Cozier dies aged 75

From God we come and to God shall be our return.

Rest in Peace TC.

In TC's time there were not many voices allowed to hit the International stage and he certainly made it his own, as far as the West Indies were concerned but he was objective in his deliberations and observations.

Well placed to speak out against the WICB, when necessary, he seldom did so.

He has been the voice of Windies cricket and my condolences are extended to all his loved ones.

R.I.P.

Tony was one of my all-time favourites. His voice provided the soundtrack to that incredible period of West Indian domination. Listening to his melodically lilting, soothing voice on the radio on a cold, dark night, even with England getting smashed, was a rare treat.

He combined an encyclopedic knowledge with almost unparalleled insight. He truly was one of the last great commentators.

For old times sake:

Mikey Holding and Aggers paid tribute to TC on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Two of the very best commentators calling two unplayable Wasim Akram deliveries in the '92 World Cup final:



I am not sure which is more enjoyable, the dulcet tones of Benaud and Cozier in harmony or Wasim Akram's jaffers.

there wasn't anything about Tony Cozier I appreciated.

Cozier was a west Indian white man who was never in sync with the black aspirations of the west indies. never.

that fact can be easily detected in his work over the years.

the one thing abut him I look back fondly at is the Benson and Hedges cricket monthly he published. I used to enjoy  that and looked forward to it. I had a big collection of it that just disappeared.

I don't hate the guy..his memory.  but he was deeply, totally, not on my side. and I saw that.  case closed

you hated him cause him white


you only half you threw the collection away after theother half showed up

THAT SHUD BE THE OPERATIVE IDEA IN THIS FUH YOU SCAPTAIN.

work it out and you will be fine. 

seems like you having real problems at the moment..so bad it even affecting your ability to speak and write.

so go see if that statement contains any validity.  I guarantee that by the end of it you will be all straightened out

Mapoui is a west indian black man

who is never in sync with the aspirations of other ethnic west indians. never

howzzz daatttt ??? 

that is prolly true as well..as true as it is of Cozier relative to the interest of black west indians in cricket.

as I advised scaptain go find out and straighten yuhself out on the issue. 

the question is why..who wrong me or dem ::confused:: ::confused:: ::confused::
