In a country fascinated by the rise of young Vaibhav Suryavanshi, a 16 year old guy like Diamond debuts against Bengaluru FC in the ISL opener. A moment worth celebrating, a young footballing talent worth spotlighting. However Curveball, the agency allegedly run by people who previously worked within the BFC system, is managing the league’s official account, which somehow finds time to post about everything under the sun except this young talent and his remarkable achievement against Bengaluru. And then people wonder why enough young kids aren't taking up football as a career in this country. 🤦‍♂️ #TheISLTrolls

GW20: 6th place, 3 points off Top 4. Amad, Mbeumo, Mazraoui gone to AFCON. Bruno, Mount, Maguire, De Ligt all injured. Amorim begged for ONE midfielder to survive the crisis, called out the board, and got sacked. Delusional fans cheered it on. Look at us now. #MUFC

AIFF: THE SAGA OF U15 SUPPORT STAFF In recent years, the All India Football Federation has developed a remarkable ability to attract controversy in areas that were previously thought to be free from public scrutiny. The selection of the coach and the manager for the inaugural U15 World Cup and Festival 2026 is the latest addition to the long list. It was expected to be a simple process. But the AIFF refused to make it a mundane affair. They made sure it turned complicated and controversial and reduced it to a single-episode soap opera. Here is the carefully written script: 1) The AIFF invites applications for the U15 coach’s job; having an AFC Pro or A license is the minimum criterion. 2) The AIFF technical department shortlists three candidates and places them with the TC for their considerations. None of the three are asked to appear for an interview in the virtual meeting. 3) The drama begins. A fourth candidate is added to the list, and the TC is informed once the meeting starts. Unlike others, the candidate appeared for the interview virtually. 4) The TC recommends one of the first three because he met the minimum criteria as per the guidelines. 5) The matter goes to the Exco for final approval. It endorses the TC decision for the coach but appoints the fourth candidate as the manager. 6) First, the Exco never ever appoints a manager. It’s the responsibility of the AIFF secretariat. Second, why appoint the man the manager, whom the AIFF thought good enough to be a coach? 7) To make the matter worse, the coach allegedly makes it clear that he would not like to work with the manager named. 8) Finally, the manager refuses to take up the assignment. The AIFF puts its foot in the mouth at a regular interval. An uncanny ability. #IndianFootball

I sucked at Math but I was still forced to study Math. Back in college, I was interested in Chemistry and Physics along with History and Economics. Unlike now, there was no multi-disciplinary option in the Congress era that gave students the freedom to explore their area of interest. Watch.
