Kalyanheimer really broke Indian football didn't he
Frankly I want to quote it differently. When isl began, the mra itself had already defined whats going to happen after its initial stipulated period, mostly because it began breaking existing structure, not taking into account a true football eco system and disrupting everything that came in its way. While aiff is to be blamed a lot, we are forgetting that as per mra, fsdl had rights to all other leagues and tournaments as well, which they helped mismanaged gravely among with aiff.
Now they want to repeat the same again, this time solely giving a blank to everything else in eco system. For me true culprit has always been previous regine and this mra , which though had some merits, purely pushed back Indian football. Clubs going broke and disbandng merely in the pretext that a league might change or for worse might close, I am better off with MB, EB, MS, Churchill etc who have lng served Indian football without anything in return. For clubs threatening to close down, I have a feeling its a tactics to pressurise into admitting previous path against.
