So whats the use of Fed cup then ?..only aiff can answer tht ...why and for wht they are conducting tht tournament like this ...(and pls don't come with premier league examples as we are talking abt indian football)
@gopiajeesh as per afc every country should have a cup competition so we get points for that and fed cup is quite old so need it but in different format form next season
Churchill Brothers are expected to be without Dharmaraj Ravanan, Lenny Rodrigues and the Saran Singh as all three are carrying injuries. Young fullback Satish Singh is suspended. Raju Yumnam is not completely fit but could still start at left back due to the lack of defensive options.
If India gets hosting rights for 2015-16 FIFA Club World Cup then I-league clubs should take no chance and playing like a world class football club team.
Not every country needs a cup competitions (cough * Australia * cough).
Also, how did Pune get in through the back? They finished in 2nd last season, 3 points behind the champions Churchill Brothers. The only difference was that the 2nd spot was given to the 2nd best team in the I-League over the champions of the 5 game Fed Cup. And of course Pune were promoted to the Champions League which you could say was backdoor but they did have the qualificiations and playing did not hurt at all.
