JUST FINALS WHERE WE DONT HAVE TEAMS SO PEOPLE get to see i-league action and we can rotate each year teh city
Again, I am not to sure. I feel it would be better to give the home fans a chance to expirence their team potentially win the championship in their home ground in front of their fans.
Why take it away from them? We have seen tournaments in the past when we have had a neutral venue for the final and it does not turn out well. The Indian Super Cup in 2011 is a grand example of that.
AIFF was happy with the positive reaction they got from 30 interested corporate groups, who have shown interest in bidding for two new teams for the 2013-14 I-League.
Prominent groups like Hero Motors, Sahara, GMR, Venky's, Piramal, DodsalGroup, IL&FS, JSW, and DSK attended the Open House session at the Football House.
I-League bidding process will start on March 30 and go on till May 10 when the announcement of the successful bidders will be made. The process of registering new teams is likely to be completed by the end of April. It will help the two new teams to recruit footballers when the transfer window opens on June 9.
Why is he even commenting in the first place? Indian football is really the only place I have seen it be legal to publicly talk about decisions like this... major ones.
And David Sullivan, the owner of West Ham who goes on twitter every time his team will get the Olympic Stadium, only for that to be delayed yet again.
he says there could be direct entry for 2-4 teams... does that mean we could be seeing around 18 teams in next season??
:-/
At first I was in favour of having many teams,but will have to agree with American Nerd that we need to reduce the teams and only increase when their is quality not just to make numbers.

If this is what they decided to do then they have to consider removing some more dead wood next season,like teams which score low points in criteria and there should be no relegation at all.

Um... it was only Guam. Think about that for a second.

Patel said that the AIFF will host a similar Open House in Dubai by the end of this month to attract foreign investors from Gulf and Europe. :O
Hm, Piramal is interested?

Im guessing the 4 teams could be
DSK -Pune
Tigers - Mumbai
Sahara - UP
Venkys - ??
