Very interesting.
So, what has upset the great ego, Irani? The sub-optimum performance of the players? Of course, no players ever under-performed when Irani was captain!
Was it that JPS is the new Chief Exec.? Has he failed to get enough of his buddies appointed to Club roles?
Maybe it's because the Club have finally dispensed with his services...a full twenty years after he should have been stripped of the captaincy.
I'm disappointed, although not at all surprised that ECCC tried to explain this away by some media-friendly fairy story about his booming business commitments making it not possible for him to continue with his committee role. I'd have a
lot more respect for the Club if he; Irani was actually called out for what sounds like behaviour incompatible with his position.
Inexplicably, there continues to be a reluctance to call out his behaviour, when in this case by doing so they would be implicitly stating that they are backing their players and coach.
I’d be equally interested to see if any of those affected by this alleged behaviour have brought a case under bullying and harassment at work? That could prove to be highly embarrassing for the Club. Is Irani's ex-role counted as a Club officer - and therefore management? I'd suggest it was.
