It is learnt from a reliable source that the Karnataka State
Football Association officials failed to reserve adequate train berths for the
Karnataka players traveling to Bhubaneshwar.
The state team boarded Yeshwantpur-Howrah Express on Monday, May 7, evening and travelled 23 hours
without proper seat. Also, learned that several players spent most of their journey
time near the passageway close to the loo.
The state team has reached Bhubaneshwar today night and will be
playing their Santosh Trophy match on Friday, May 11, against Nagaland.
State football association’s callousness once again! They took
almost a month in planning and preparing the team, but could not secure train
tickets in advance. We are neither talking
about air travel nor air-conditioned train journey, just a basic train reservation,
yet the officials failed to do that.
Remember our players will be representing the Karnataka state
and still we are expecting them to perform well after such a shabby treatment!
This is very pathetic those guys are our representatives in this prestigious sports event its ridiculous that the officials are so careless about them. they talk more on discipline where's the discipline which they were talking about!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen will the KSFA & other state boards change it self & stop ill-treating our players.
