Edinho Junior was no where near First team for Blackburn rovers anyways; Appleton is clearing out a lot of deadwood and he has had a good start as a manager.
Edinho Junior could do well in India. Watched him in one game(only appearance in the league) and he wasn't great at championship level but was quite decent in the highlights of reserves games i watched.
Either way this signing will be huge. Junior is a product of a Portugese top tier side and he was rumored to go to Celtic FC in the Scottish Premier League before hand as well.
This is another thing I was hoping for as well. Only instead of getting Championship players on loan we would get A-League or J. League guys. This is easily a step up from that.

It could happen; especially if Edinho's loan is a success(and he talks about his time in India in favorable light). It may make a few J-League or A-League or even K-league teams to think it may not be a bad idea to sent some of their younger ones to I-league to gain some valuable experience.
Agree that this a huge singing for an Indian club.
BTW, is this the first loan from England to an I-league club ?

So weakest team now in I-league would be Air India and United Sikkim.
Perhaps. United Sikkim did recently sign the 2011 NSW Premier League player of the year in Steven Hayes.
Oh shit I forgot
Another "number 10" released by appleton.
