Hyderabad FC inaugurates their own training facility Gogzee Sports Arena. Kalyan was there for the opening ceremony. Impressive move by keeping their same budget and finding these much needed infra for professional clubs. Kolkata or goan clubs didn't had to sweat to build training infra. CFC is the only club which is loaning the training infra from ramachandra institute.
I have been to the ground. Pitch is better than Gachibowli stadiums
A lot of ISL clubs need to move away from state owned stadium and build smaller ones like lower league English clubs or smaller European countries
I can understand Kerala Blasters wanting to play in big stadium but teams like Chennaiyin FC struggle even to sell 2 thousand tickets and give away a lot of complimentary passes.
They also spend over 2 crore every season on renting the stadium and this does not include charges for maintenance and electricity bill etc.
They can simply build a small stadium outskirts of the city. Avoid complimentary passes and save a lot more in long-term
I'd love clubs to build stadium like Tilak Maidan, invest in youth etc than spend huge money on things they don't require
It is not worth investing in a stadium when lot of things are out of Clubs hands. Building a stadium means having a proper roadmap(Here clubs don’t know if they will last beyond a season) and help of local Authority/Govt unfortunately both are non existent.
At this point Mehtab looks way better than Sandesh..good ball player and no drama defending. He also performed really admirably in ACL so he's already proven at continental level

TRAU FC and Neroca FC both usually play their matches in the Khuman Lampak Stadium
