Any news on the next assignment of India's Sir Alex Ferguson (Sir Santosh Kashyap) ? Or he is still undecided about which team should be relegated next ?
I thought he is Santosh Guardiola Kashyap. He alone is not reponsible. The club owners, financial pressure to make money out of club budget, unprofessional player recruitment agencies, uncertainity in Indian Football because of ISL are all responsible for the demise of so many clubs.
Thats the owner's decision. They are a big Business Empire Essel Group with Zee and all other entities. They never promoted Mumbai FC even on their Zee News or Zee Sports channels. Probably club is being run for just Corporate Social Responsibility venture. Fixed budget and thats it. For some years, it suffered because of not playing in Mumbai -Cooperage Stadium issues. But now they got a good fan base- they should build on it.
In the initial years there was much enthusiasm in the club. They used to organize a city wide youth tournament (supposedly 'largest in Asia'). Social outreach was better than their contemporary Pune FC. The website was happening: introducing new recruits, competitions, fan corner, the works. Then gradually it all dried up ... probably Essel Group lost interest, probably the CSR angle prevailed. The club became moribund.
See Concert is not the problem. Even European stadiums of top clubs are used for Musical Nights, Rugby and what not. The problem is poor maintenance in India. Turf is ruined and thats it. The stadium hardly has staff-whoever is there is poorly trained.

He will try to stay illegally and get a CFL contract before he leaves
@bengalurufc grow up mate.... you have no idea how these random Africans exploit the system here.
There is no doubt he is unpaid by Minerva..but we don't know the full story...and frankly NO one cares.
Santosh Kashyap sacking and Dave Rodgers and Roca imminent sackings are far more pressing matters
