Do that please. On a serious note, BFC has money, they won't need money from IMG-R. Question is would BFC be allowed in or given a cold shoulder? @gaffertape any info on what's brewing mate?
BFC have an edge over OZONE in so much as they have secured the only ISL worthy stadium in Bangalore
Ozone might have the rights to redevelopment of Bangalore football stadium...but with the legal action taken by support groups.. we won't be seeing a new football stadium at that location for the next 10years
That said...with the current steel prices ...JSW can't be too keen on spending 40Crores a year and doubling there current outlay.
BFC can't get more than 2000 people to come to a mid week AFC Cup game against the champions of Asia.. What makes them think they can make money in ISL format ??
It is amazing that BFC now control Athletics Stadium for Football and Hockey stadium due to HIL. But they let go their Football Stadium. Khaleel Bhai ne Khalal Daal Diya Saare Plan pe.
So after all cooked up news from Kolkata media we have something solid
Kushal Das: DSK Shivajians not guaranteed of a berth in case of a merger between I-League and Indian Super League
“For now all of that is a rumour and there are just people talking about it. The thing is that we want to ensure that at least the supporter-based clubs are a part of the Premier League of the country. We want to work it out as much as possible,” he mentioned.
“This was just a first meeting. We decided to relook at the existing structures in Indian football with regards to three things – development, the current competitions and the national team. The idea is that all these aspects must ensure that the national team does well for which we need a league of at least five-to-six months in a year. This was the basic theme,” Das informed Goal.
“It was a good meeting. At the Executive Committee too, Mr.Patel informed that we are working on a blueprint with a proper plan looking at the overall development of Indian football. We want to work with all the stakeholders before any decision is arrived upon,” he added.
While there has been reports that only three I-League clubs will be considered in case of a merger, Das stated that it was too early to make a comment on the same.
“For now all of that is a rumour and there are just people talking about it. The thing is that we want to ensure that at least the supporter-based clubs are a part of the Premier League of the country. We want to work it out as much as possible,” he mentioned.
