Difficult to have far sighted coach in a 16 match sprint. One way 2 overcome this is to have reserves play after each official match and to have a longer ileague 2 so that a larger pool is in match sharpness.

I may have my differences but your regurgitation of my ideas from a few years ago is impressive.

So, is it Kingfisher East Bengal still or just East Bengal?

Kingfisher.. Why do you ask that?

ArsenalFan700 · April 2016

I don't know. Guess I got confused for a bit. Just checked the official website, it is 100% Kingfisher East Bengal FC.

I guess Diageo problems are with Spirits Business of UB Group. So Mohun bagan sponsorship has issues. Kingfisher comes into United Breweries-separate from Diageo-Mallya problems.
It will be interesting to see how much stake Heineken has got now in Kingfisher. Will they like to rename it Heineken East Bengal one day???

Hopefully if/once they get into ISL, we won't have a corporate name attached to the team.

@munna219777 Diagio now owns United Spirits and UB group has nothing to do with it anymore or Mohun Bagan. Even in the current season afaik UB gave EB almost 10 crores, that's higher than any single sponsor of any ISL team. UB group also played a key role to actually bring TJM back as he was their preferred choice for a while.

@ArsenalFan700 That won't happen unless UB pulls out as that's how the company is set up.
