Despite all the hype surrounding it, the ISL standard won't be much of a standard - probably around the SA NPL level.

Let's face it they've got the numbers.

Watched a bit last night. David James @ 44 playing for Kerala.

They'll still need a few juniors to support his wages though.

TV audience of 180 million for 1 game the other night

With those numbers subsequently there will be more and more $$$$ poured in so you can see a fairly sustainable model perhaps

This.

And that's what makes football so great.

I actually enjoyed the game of ISL I watched on the weekend. FC Goa vs Delhi Dynamo.

Indian Super League will surely increase the football talent in Indian players so he can also compete at world class level, as their cricket team.

Yes any level of football can be entertaining. I've enjoyed watching some SSF games more than some of the EPL games I have seen at times.

I read today that James has been declared bankrupt. Lord knows what he spent his money on.
