MB punishment is jusified and the best thing is that aiff took this decision by keeping intrest of i-league in consideration....2 crore to aiff now i don't think that prize money will be delayed for the next session as they have money in advance....
The fine should have been a minimum of the clubs 1 year budget(abt 15 Crore) OR they should have been banned from present season OR make them play all the remaining rounds before the feb 10 break so that they play a game every 2-3 days. This punishment is too lenient. What is 2 crore???Just a drop in the ocean of MB.

Comments
AIFF Executive Committee Meeting Is Over. Final Verdict Will Come In Very Short Time.
So soon. I hope they have not chickened out.
Mohun bagan will start the league from after the derby match with 0 points.
Mohun bagan have 16 games to avoid religation.
Its so easy to escape relegation. Only problem.is that they treated Odafa badly. So he wont be involved much in this escape.
