Steve Stoute, Trevor Browne – Get Set, Ready, Steady, Go!

Submitted by Jeffrey Thompson

Trevor Browne, Craig Archer, Steve Stoute, Erskine Simmons (l-r)

I see all the talk flying around about BOA elections and whether Stoute should or should not step down, but I have a few questions for the esteemed leader which I think he should answer to all Barbados and his constituents before he even thinks about another 4 years. IF RETURNED TO PRESIDENCY

  1. Will you continue to allow Erskine Simmons to run the BOA or will you take up that position finally?
  2. Since Erskine Simmons has been running the BOA for the past 16 years, Why cant you go home?
  3. If you are returned to the Presidency will you now attend functions of the sporting Federations that Mr. Simmons’ does not like even though he will get vex with you? (You don’t know what federations he didn’t want you to associate with, ask Sonia Oneale, Swimming, Dr. Harper, Handball, need I go on.)
  4. Will you continue to allow him and Cammie Burke to rape the BOA and use the Bank account of said Association as their own Piggy Bank?
  5. Will you continue to allow them to use the Credit Cards like bus passes?
  6. Will you and Mr. Simmons continue to travel to the Winter Olympics, when it does not benefit Barbados or any of its sporting federations?
  7. Will you continue to allow Erskine Simmons and Cameron Burke to travel to Miami at the BOA’s expense, stay in the best hotels at the BOA’s expense, and take their girlfriends, outside women on shopping sprees at the BOA’s expense?
  8. Will you continue to allow Erskine Simmons to victimize sporting Federations because he does not like the President of said Federations. i.e Swimming, Judo, Handball?
  9. Will you grow a spine, a set of balls and a backbone by October 17th, so that parents of children will not have to explain to them why certain children of certain sports or from certain backgrounds can be assisted financially to attend meets even though that child or children is not as good as them?
  10. Will you continue to allow Erskine Simmons to get the BOA involved in deals that are of no benefit to the BOA, the sporting federations, or the country on a whole?
  11. Will you be able to tell Erskine Simmons that getting a deal from Nike or Mizuno is more beneficial to ALL sporting bodies?
  12. Will you Erskine Simmons, and Cameron Burke figure out that you can get to Canada, direct and you don’t have to go through Miami, you just have to hop on a Air Canada or West Jet Flight?
  13. Will you Erskine Simmons and Cameron Burke figure out that you can get to London and the greater European area by travelling via BA or Virgin you don’t have to go through Miami?
  14. Will you Erskine Simmons and Cameron Burke figure out by October 17 that you can get the same mile for AA travelling on BA?
  15. Will you be able to tell your “constituents why Mr. Simmons is asking them not to vote for Browne or Archer, even as Directors?
  16. Will you be able to tell why you don’t want Archer or Browne on your Board?
  17. Will you be able to tell why you and Erskine Simmons are so intent on handpicking this Board? Why now? Why at this time? What do you guys have to lose. What don’t you want to lose?

Please enlighten Barbados.

  1. Simmons and Stoute are shareholders as is Boozer on the National Sports Council another source for their free flying around the globe. If the allegations by Jeffry Thompson are true each of the gentlemen ought to face a court of law. Its time to expel them from the BOA they’ve brought nothing to the island besides failure and disgrace while living the lives of high flyers.


    • One question we should all like to see answered posed by the author is why would our BOA officials have to attend the Winter Olympics. Perhaps there was a meeting of the international body?


  2. I see that Browne like he distance himself from these questions on another blog and putting on a statesman hat. I thought that by now Stoute would have responded to these questions or dismissed them as nonsense.
    if he just answering them at their private meeting that is not good enough, boa is a national organization that getting lottery money for sport. is he aware that in this new age + bigups cannot hide from facebook and the blog? you may as well come clean mr stoute.
    barbados must be entering a bob sled team in the next winter games like jamaica a wile back.
