Also the best thing is that di ridder is the coach, who can also work on the PR section!!! Di ridder has a cartoon school in Kolkata, so his team can work on it...cost cutting!!!
may be they have given the name of URO to the USFC trails as it will give their sponsors the reach also...<div><br><div>like it had been with many cases including MUPC which got the sponsors name along with it..</div></div>

His decision to go against family tradition and take up football as a profession, however, has never been met with any overwhelming objection. The Pinhos' Goan background may have had something to do with that. And Caetano doesn't mind revealing that unlike him, many in his clan have managed to pursue both vocations simultaneously and successfully.<p>“I did promise my father that I too would be successful at both, but somehow football has taken serious precedence over time,” he says. He doesn't admit it now, but for a brief period in mid-2011 Pinho would have been pardoned for being tempted to reexamine if not regret his career choice. It was around the time his club ONGC had just been relegated from the I-League after their maiden season in the country's premier football competition. The club’s poor showing had not gone down well with the management, who it was believed were even considering the most extreme of repercussions. For a company which supports 16 difference disciplines of sports around the country, they had after all pumped in the maximum amount of money into the football club's coffers.</p><p>Elsewhere, to add to coach Pinho's worries, the curtains had just abruptly come down on JCT, one of the most established football clubs in the country. Just 12 months earlier, the city's own Mahindra United had met with a similar disastrous outcome.</p><p>With the possibility of yet another shutdown looming large, a number of ONGC's regular players, even the senior ones, had decided to jump ship, leaving only seven or eight behind. In this steadfast lot was skipper Jatin Bisht.</p><p>Now in addition to sharing the reins of the ONGC Football Club, Pinho and Bisht have also been bound by a spiritual bond during the four years they have been together. And for the two God-fearing individuals this was a time for living on a prayer.</p><p>“With both of us being employed with ONGC, we would not have been as affected by the club's closure as the many younger players in the team, and it was mainly for the sake of those 20-odd guys that we prayed for the club to stay afloat," recalls Bisht, who as a habit only eats after he's done with his extensive puja.</p><p>And Bisht still gets emotional while describing the relief in the camp when their pleas were finally answered. “I will never forget the day when I and the seven others who were left in the team were practising in Surat and (Vivek) Bhowmick da, the manager who was chiefly instrumental in convincing them, gave us the good news,” says the ONGC captain, who was part of the Indian team for a five-year period in the 2000s.</p><p>That Bisht, Pinho and their boys haven't looked back ever since and come from the brink to regain promotion into the I-League for the 2012-13 season is a triumph of skill, belief and determination combining together into one force. But ONGC's road to redemption had commenced on a sketchy note, with them having to first deal with the inevitable headache of finding players to fill their squad.</p><p>“Amidst the euphoria of the club not shutting down, we suddenly panicked as we were left with only 7-8 players and just five days to go for the I-League <a href="http://www.expressindia.com/latest-news/oil-stocks-on-the-rise-again/944195/#"; class="kLink" id="KonaLink0" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit !important; border-top-width: 0px !important; border-right-width: 0px !important; border-bottom-width: 0px !important; border-left-width: 0px !important; border-top-style: none !important; border-right-style: none !important; border-bottom-style: none !important; border-left-style: none !important; border-top-color: transparent !important; border-right-color: transparent !important; border-bottom-color: transparent !important; border-left-color: transparent !important; border-image: initial !important; background-image: none !important; background-attachment: initial !important; background-origin: initial !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-color: transparent !important; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline !important; top: 0px; right: 0px; bottom: 0px; left: 0px; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; position: static; font-size: inherit !important; "><font color="#0000ff" style="font-size: inherit !important; font-family: inherit !important; position: static; "><span class="kLink" style="border-top-width: 0px !important; border-top-style: none !important; border-top-color: initial !important; border-left-width: 0px !important; border-left-style: none !important; border-left-color: initial !important; border-right-width: 0px !important; border-right-style: none !important; border-right-color: initial !important; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: initial; padding-top: 0px !important; padding-right: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 1px !important; padding-left: 0px !important; background-image: none; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; width: auto !important; float: none !important; display: inline !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; position: static; ">Division </span><span class="kLink" style="border-top-width: 0px !important; border-top-style: none !important; border-top-color: initial !important; border-left-width: 0px !important; border-left-style: none !important; border-left-color: initial !important; border-right-width: 0px !important; border-right-style: none !important; border-right-color: initial !important; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: initial; padding-top: 0px !important; padding-right: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 1px !important; padding-left: 0px !important; background-image: none; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; width: auto !important; float: none !important; display: inline !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; position: static; ">II</span></font></a> to commence.

A couple of sturdy African defenders is what we are targeting presently,” adds Bisht, while expressing his desire to witness the emergence of more Indian-origin strikers like ONGC's Kailash Patil in the I-League.</p><p>Not getting to play at their home ground in Cooperage was also a let down, says Bisht.</p><p>“It almost felt like we were just playing away games, considering the lack of home support at our 'home' venue in Kolhapur and the overnight travelling before each game," he says. Pinho adds that being a public-sector team means ONGC find it more difficult to create a fan-base around them.</p><p>“The ONGC family is huge with around 36, 000 employees around India. We do get awesome support via emails but we rarely get to see it on the ground,” the coach explains.

And having survived the most fascinating of rollercoaster rides over the last two years, both Pinho and Bisht can't wait to fashion some more in the coming months.</font></p></div>
<br><div>it will be good if we they can find new talents ,they should just send some scouts to NPL see if anyone has skills to make it to i-league you can get them for cheap</div>
