6 days before their opening AFC qualifier, the MNT succumbed to a second-string Thai side. 20 days prior to their opening AFC qualifier, the WNT lost both games to Uzbekistan, yet to qualify for one themselves. Third tier sides in Asia at best, slowly slipping into Tier 4.

Let me tell you a story. Around 10 years ago Ashish Negi owned the rights to the handle named Indian football, now run by the AIFF. I had just started with the FIFA U17 World Cup, & in my bid to help build Indian football, had requested Ashish to give that handle for us to build

Yesterdayโ€™s ExCo meeting seemed an intense one โ€” definitely not a typical #CrashCourse session. ๐Ÿ˜‚ It went on for nearly 6 hours, with just a 40-minute lunch break in between. #IndianFootball Anyone heard about any (major) decisions that came out of it?

Nilanjan Datta Chola lacked Spices,Samosas were smaller in size compared to previous Ex Co,Pepsi came in 200 ml Bottles and Mineral Water had to be shared amongst the Guests. No Suits or Gift Hampers either. Toilet weren't washed,No Tissue Paper was available in Loos,Only 1 AC was Functioning.

Without checking with Xavi, letโ€™s use basic common sense: โ€“ If Xavi wanted the India job, his agent wouldโ€™ve made the call or sent an email โ€“ He reportedly rejected a $15M Qatar national team job with insane perks โ€“ AIFF posted the job online with a public email โ€” anyone could

๐Ÿšจ "No one can trust the AIFF Presidentโ€™s words now" As predicted by Khel Now, AIFF used the National Sports Bill to delay proceedings. Amicus Curiae will now present the matter to the Supreme Court, while the other parties remain silent. #IndianFootball khelnow.com/football/indiaโ€ฆ

These 'other parties' have brought #IndianFootball to its knees. Always had vested interests and fuelled by an army of uninformed limelight seekers, have spread rampant misinformation. Key issue is spinelessness. Not one official has come out and named them openly.

Unpopular opinion but after reading today's Aiff release, I would rather NOT have ISL this season than the one suggested. No clarity on Broadcasters, No Partners, No Sponsors & No Money? And AIFF thinks they can find it all in 30 days. Prepare for a shit s**show.

The I-League clubs once pushed to leave the I-League and join the ISL because it was owned and run by FSDL with minimal involvement from AIFF. Now it actually feels like these clubs might be better off in the IFL rather than the ISL ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ โ€ข No AIFF interference in IFL, it's

This is the reality. As India faced Japan yesterday, I was watching my own team face another on the ground and I was wondering how we were going to survive the next financial year. Last 3 months have been like that. 200 unanswered mails because CSR starts and ends on LinkedIn.
