Follow up to what I asked in the East Bengal thread... seems like the Assam State Premier League will come back and will start in November and last until January
Thankfully this performance has triggered an online debate about why the promised PSU league has not been already started....and is there an actual timeline for it to start beyond #IMG ppt...especially as army/services /railways have the teams and physical infrastructure already in place to play a full fledged league...its just that aiff doesn't give a damn about them
So MAFC not participating?? Could have been good preseason for them especially as they were clearly short of big guns standards in the Durand cup.
Also is finances keeping PSL from having it completely on "home and away" basis...12 teams means 22 matches which can go from Sep -Jan...add to that a Cup tournament and every team has a proper 30 match season spread over 7 months (counting pre season)
Ambedkar turf is very hard, discouraging passing teams like Neroca...army greens barely hanging on to a 0-0 draw with first half almost complete. Aatleast 15,000 crowd present
