Brilliant news from Chennai, City that massive deserves a Football club. I see the following challenges for them :
- Club is starting from scratch, May mean good news but have to start work from ground up including management. - Players are 2nd div local players and wont cut it at the national Level, Need a huge budget unless they are backed by serious corporate backing AKA The Hindu?? - Fans are very fickle here since they will automatically compare anything against CSK, Suggest they catch the hardcore fans who arent glory hunters (AKA BFC), Filling a 40K capacity stadium should not be the goal atleast for a couple of seasons. - Marketing is the Key else the message will be lost. Need decent backing in Television as well - Should make it a pan state feel like CSK unlike market it as just a city club.
