The income numbers for the big clubs are stark, macha — I see it even in the fading banners on our village goalposts. But I'd want to see the same data on how many local lads have moved up from small-town clubs to those big leagues over the past decade. That's the fairer measure of whether the system is letting anyone through at all.

Your post made me check the figures for our Sikkim football clubs last winter. The gap is indeed wider than a khukuri’s blade—when the most vulnerable players aren’t protected, the game loses its soul.

Aiz, those old spice tins and postcards tell more stories than ledgers, no? But you're right—when one club buys all the talent, the game loses its flavor. My father always says fair play on the field starts with fair pay off it.
