Looks like dhar was correct...8-9 teams in ileague this year. After all we cannot compromise on club licensing even though none of the clubs taking 5months off the domestic season have any licenses
All India Football Federation extends the deadline for submitting the tender inviting new corporate clubs in Hero I-League 2016-17 season to November 19, 2016. The winning bidder(s) will be allowed to field a team in the Hero I-League 2016-17 season onward and also get an opportunity to participate in AFC club competitions subject to necessary requirements.
Extension of submission date means lack of response. Understably so. Unless they are coming clean of the future roadmap, they will not hook anyone to sink a lot of money in the form of a football club.
Minerva and FC Bardez have already submitted their bids. Chennai City FC picked up the bid documents a few days ago. May be they extended for CCFC bid.
Till now no official announcement on churchill also...wont they also have to buy a corporate slot? They are almost last in GPL so cant come up as goa champions or something like that
