    Since EB is not in final of IFA shield, why should the game be postponed. They can play on 15th at kalyani.

    Interesting Financial points:-

    1) Each club is given 40 lakh rupees for travel, lodging, boarding for their away games.
    2) Rupees 70000 subsidy each home game for arranging Bus for travelling team for home games.
    3)Clubs keep the gate receipt money from tickets.
    4) I-league will reimburse the floodlights expenses. This is interesting because many times clubs are crying that floodlights are expensive. When it is reimbursed by AIFF, whats the problem.
    5) Not sure about police charges or how much clubs have to give for stadium rent? How much is cut by Local association?

    if u look at it in one way....aiff is taking gud care of clubs....i guess point 2 and point 1 are not combined...then 13 * 70,000 for home games = 910.000 + 40,00,000 = 49.1 lakh...if club like EB wins league then 5000 attendence * 50 rs/ticket * 13 home games =32,50,000 and around 10 crore sponser money
    so total can be:
    i-lig winner amt = 70lakh
    travel expense = 49.1 lakh
    gate receipt money = 32.5lakh
    sponser money = 10 crore
    -------------------------
    total =11.56 crore....will any club will make profit if they have this figure???

    from this way it looks like AIFF is taking around 60-70% of the money clubs are spending on participating in the league..
    but the problem is with the players wages for which the clubs are not able to find any solution with the league not attracting monetary sponsorship(i dont know how much airted gives) and same for most of clubs too with the owners pocket being taken hit more...

    dempo could well be seen as one example of few owners becoming cautious with the known teams like SLFC, mumbai, scg always on smaller budget comparitively.

    Most of the current I-league clubs are not for money. They wouldn't be here in the first place if money was the motivation as 10 crore would bring more profit if it is left to rot in a savings bank account.

    But of AIFF really wants to invite professional minded teams, they need to come out of the IMGR deal as there is no provision for the clubs to share TV deal profits which is major major contributor of earnings for any sporting event in the world. An easier way out is to create a separate entity that would not be affiliated to AIFF and thus out of IMG ambit. But I think that would bring in complications regarding AFC and FIFA approval

    seperate entity means a probable ban on Indian represention for having two leagues caling themselves to be national league...
    but the complexity in this rule is...doenst ISL-- i league scenario bring this rule?? or is there any exemption for short term league??
