Its good that they have shifted base. Would be interstin to see how siliguri ppl respond. They should also change the name to Siliguri United SC
Its a good step cause they are likely to have bigger fan-base there.If marketed well and improve their facilities they could reap huge benefits. <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->
Siliguiri has 40,000 capacity stadium,hope they improve it before August in order to meet AFC criteria. <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->
While shifting to Siliguri is good news which I always wanted United SC to do, I think Kanchenjonga Stadium is a bad state right now. I doubt if it can pass the AFC test. Nonetheless, this move will definitely do a lot to grow root for the club. No club in Kolkata has ever dared to move beyond the city limits till now (of course, there were no incentives for this). And now, they should put up a website as well.
