The Indian Football problem:
I don't claim to know everything
I'm just a C License coach.
I've only done internships, not a full-time coaching job cuz I'm also a 9-5 corporate employee (which I genuinely enjoy), and I don't want to stop creating football content either.
But.
@90ndstoppage If they are not given exposure how will
They succeed. This is classic mentality of people who run things in our country who are not experts of their field
@JamesSurowiecki NBA 😃😃, game lasts for 2 hrs and there are gazillion breaks. No disrespect to athletes im any way but this argument can only be made by a non-athlete and a novice who does not know football.
For a moment let us set aside the fact that changing the name of the AIFF to the Football Federation of Bharat or adding Vande Mataram in addition to the National Anthem before matches is not going to make any material difference to how the Indian team plays football.
My question is, did none of the committee members in the room even think that as the guardians and guiding lights of the world's most popular sport in the world's most populous country, these were not the decisions that every football lover was looking for from them?
And that worries me more than any name change or additional ceremony. They have no idea how tone deaf their decisions sounded in the middle of a World Cup, utterly detached from ground realities.
@AbdllahAlneaimi Sorry sir but the thinking that only history and having name qualifies one to be naturally good at a sport will be met with such results
@CFCCentral3 No bro Indian football also had money coming in for the last decade but our inept and incompetent people in AIFF completely mismanaged it. Only the federation is to be blamed including the state federations
