announced in effect that they will take their team elsewhere next year !
They stupidly imagined that they will get the same level of frenzied patronage in Kerala as other teams get among less discerning populations elsewhere !
The attendance for the much hyped 'matches' in Kochi never crossed 30 or 40 % of the stadium capacity. Worse, the TV ratings in Kerala, after the initial burst began to slide lower and lower !
If they had taken some effort to study the malayali psyche, the stupid owners of 'Kochi whatever' would not have rushed into Kerala with their salivating tongues and investment !
