Julian Hunte likely to take over
Gordon stands down as WICB president (http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/westindies/content/current/story/301093.html)
Ken Gordon will not be seeking re-election as president of the West Indies Cricket Board at the end of the month.
Gordon, who was 77 in February, had offered his resignation to the board at the end of April but was persuaded to change his mind. But his tenure, which started in August 2005, has been blighted by continuing poor results on the pitch and an alarming decline in relations between officials and players.
At the moment there is only one candidate for the vacancy, Julian Hunte, the former St Lucia foreign minister.
Val Banks, the current WICB vice-president, is also not seeking re-election and Dave Cameron, a director who currently represents Jamaica on the board, is the only nominee. The election, if there needs to be one, will be held on July 29, 2007 at the Marriott in Trinidad as part of the board's AGM.

About time. I know that the shambles that is the WICB is not all his fault, but when an organisation, team, business etc is failing as badly as the WICB has been, the people at the top must go, starting with the President.
