Alleyne can't make Commonwealth Games

First it was Barry Forde in cycling, then the entire athletics squad, now basketball has withdrawn a star athlete from next month's Commonwealth Games.
Barbados' chances in basketball have been dealt a blow with the announcement that star play Andrew Alleyne has withdrawn from the team.
Alleyne was forced to pull out after his professional team in England, the Brighton Bears, refused to release him for the Melbourne games March 15th to 26th. The former Caribbean MVP is averaging over 16 points a game in the English basketball league. Source: www.cbc.bb

Wuh this really bout? he better get he *insert expletive here* back home yuh! Basketball? Do they even play basketball in England.. lol.. really now. NEVER seen it.. seen Premiership Football, seen Rugby... even Snooker featured on TV... but basketball? Then again... at night, the UK Channel 5 does show the US NBA... haw haw. So this little scruffy backyard team that playing for a plastic trophy want to deny we star boy to come back home to rep for bim? He sounds more like an 'idiot boy' to me... schuuuuuuuuupes. Football teams paying millions of pounds for players, but does let them go back home to play for their country (e.g. African Nations Cup), but this bread and water "Brighton Bears" feel dem could hold somebody? And bim ain't doing nuttin.. Well, I guess they know who to unfair... wusses
