    Habas don't want to break his set team that's why Fran Gonzalez and Beitia don't get the chance in new team.

    See the problem with cement company is Marus sell from cement to samosa to sanitiser - in which ever direction the wind is! So, I agree, Bagan would have lesser option when it comes to sponsors, and hence have roped in someone who are associated with Leeds United or SBOTOP.net were desperate to be associated with Bagan. Am leaving that to your imagination!

    And since you guys know a lot about football, see if this can open up your eyes or provide u a refresher course! :p

    Some interesting and kind words came from Joe Morrison on Mohun Bagan joining ISL. Please don't miss the IFA shield part, it reflects why do we need to protect our legacies and heritages.

    It's been learned that East Bengal, Odisha and Kerala failed to meet AFC licensing criteria. 
    (Sorry wrong thread. Can someone transfer this post to the ISL thread?)

    The coach of ATK Mohun Bagan, Antonio Lopez Habas, announced five players will be given the captain's armband in rotation through the upcoming Indian Super League (ISL) season.

    Of the five, four are members of the team that picked up the title last season with ATK. Habas has named Fijian striker Roy Krishna and Spanish midfielder Edu Garcia among the captains.

    Local players, Pritam Kotal and Arindam Bhattacharya, will also share the armband while the seasoned Sandesh Jhingan is the only newcomer in the list.

    The Spanish coach insisted that he named five captains because he does not want to recognise anyone as a star in a team game. He added that experience and performance were key parameters in determining the skippers.

    Someone suggested a refresher course regarding online betting and SBOTOP. I suggest that an orientation course, like the one cited below, would be better than the refresher course.

    ATKMB, Mumbai City’s jersey sponsors linked to large online betting companies

    When the new season of Indian Super League (ISL) kicks off November 20, ATK Mohun Bagan and Mumbai City will showcase the names of two different sports websites on their players’ jerseys as their principal sponsors. But both the websites have another common link: they are backed by online betting companies.

    On November 2, Mumbai named DafaNews as their sponsors for the season, which will be held in Goa in a bio-secure bubble. Four days later, ATK Mohun Bagan declared SBOTOP.net as their principal sponsor in a two-year deal.

    DafaNews is an offshoot of Philippines-based Dafabet, which calls itself “Asia’s leading online betting site and home to some of the best gaming products on the web that includes sports betting”. On the website are multiple links to Dafabet, with “welcome bonus”, “jackpots” and free credits in rupees offered to prospective bettors.

    SBOTOP.net offers betting tips and predictions for a range of sports, including cricket and football. It also has multiple news and announcements related to SBOTOP, an online betting brand that is a part of Isle of Man-based Celton Manx Group.

    As per their deals, Mumbai City — part of a global chain of clubs under the City Football Group — and ATK Mohun Bagan will wear their respective sponsor’s logos on training and match-day kits as well as on the playgrounds.

    Gambling and betting are prohibited under Indian law but the issue of online gambling remains a grey area and is yet to be adjudicated by the courts.

    When asked whether the deal provides a surrogate route for the sponsor to promote the online betting brand, ATK Mohun Bagan said in a statement: “SBOTOP.net is the sponsor and they are a sports news portal (like DafaNews), covering various sports in India and worldwide.”

    Mumbai City and DafaNews did not respond to queries from The Indian Express seeking comment. SBOTOP.net officials could not be reached for comments.

    On October 27, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy wrote to the Union Minister of Law, Electronics, Information Technology and Communications, Ravi Shankar Prasad, saying the state had made online gaming, online betting and online gambling a cognizable offence. Dafabet, the parent company of DafaNews, is one of the 132 websites banned by the state.

    SBOTOP recently named West Indies cricketer Dwayne Bravo as its brand ambassador. In its announcement, also published on SBOTOP.net, the company claimed to be a “global online betting platform that strives to give its customers the best eGaming experience with its comprehensive suite of products ranging from Sports, Live Casino and Slot games available on both desktop and mobile”.

    The Government’s draft guidelines for misleading advertisements under the Consumer Protection Act prohibit companies from surrogate advertising.

    “Advertisements for goods or services whose advertising is otherwise prohibited or restricted by law shall not circumvent such restrictions by purporting to be advertisements for other goods or services, the advertising of which is not prohibited or restricted by law,” the draft guidelines, released in August, state.

  • Sandesh Jhinghan yet to make an appearence for the team and is one of captains. That's sounds the quickest one. Well Harry Maguire was made the man u captian just 6 months after joining from leicester. but what a disaster it was.
