Mr Gill will be remembered in the history for crushing two things . First terrorism in Punjab and secondly Hockey in India
I dont understand if there is no authority above Gill. Just sack him or if that cant be done done scrap the IHF and form a new hockey federation. Why take all the nonsense from this man. Like cricket monopoly is the bane. Let Hockey have competitive federations or leagues and then we can let the best administrator run the show. Time we just tossed gills to feed the fish in the sea.
The sheer arrogance of this man is appalling. For a decade and a half under his 'stewardship', the IHF went from being a top team to a has-been - the dregs of the game, and yet this shameless, arrogant twit refuses step down? Any other nation would have fired this moron like yesterday, but not in butt-licking India, where useless inept, incompetent, sycophants are allowed to linger on as a malingering malignant cancer, wreaking havoc and destruction, yet they're allowed to merrily keep on at it by their pals in 'high' places. Apparently shame is not part of the lexicon of this misbegotten land land of mediocrity and sycophancy.

Don't be so angry. Apparently the national sports bodies are autonomous so that legally their functionaries can not be changed by the Government
Hi, Gill and IHF official are useless. It is the time we people contribute small amount and make the game and palyer world class. Most of the coach complained that we do not have infarstructure. Solution: 1). We contribute money and send them to holland and other club.
2).Give them atleast 4 to 5 yrs to play in those club and then they should represent India. This will help us to produce lot of good and quality people. Then all the business people instead of cricket they will be interest in hockey.
ust last year india won the asia cup very easily. they lost to britain and could not qualify for the olympics but they beat all the other teams easily. I would say that hockey has not hit rock bottom it is on the upswing. All these knee jerk reactions should be avoided!! Please keep the netas and actors away from sports!!
A very crucial details for youll to judge the IHF board members.MR Gills treatment to indian hockey team:
My elder brother was one of the cheer leader to our team India in chile with all of his friends.This is what evry1 has to say:
1) they were initially booked in a 5 star hotel in chile but got a shock of life when they went to stay in 3 star hotel.what would tendulkar or any other ckt player do in such case?
2)There were specific timings for food to be cooked for indian team as some were veggie.Poor team players havent eaten food for 4 to 5 days and have played their matches witht food in their stomach.Some players have cooked food themselves.Our IHF treatment to our players.
3)Indian association in chile have given loadsssssss of luv and wonderful support to our team India.Get to you tube and say HOCKEY INDIA as there was an indian serd who has recorded evrythng the way indians cheered and team played the game.
4) Our players have crieddddddd in the end in their rooms in front of the crowd for the step treatment they have recvd from our Federation.
5)Our team india was not awarded 1 penalty stroke and 3 penalty corners by the match refree.
Guys still you think the players have to be blamed for this.I dont thnk so.Get out Mr GILL ur not worth the position.
Our indian players said sorry to the indian crowd and still indian crowd cheered them and they were extremely happy with the team and so was the team with the support they got from
The funny part of Hockey administration in India is that it a job with all perks but with zero accountability. When a private company fails in the US, the entire top brass takes responsibility and bows out. Not in India. In India, every time there is a debacle, the bunch of incompetents at the top take umbrage under poor umpiring decisions, hostile weather & what have you. It is high time the entire top brass connected with hockey is kicked out and replaced with some young professionals. May be BCCI should take over and rub in some of the result orientedness/accountability from the cricket side.
With due respect to Ric Charlsworth capabilities, it is to be said that no one can change the situation over night.He has asked for a 5 year contract. I beleive the set back for Carvallo happened due to the injury happened to the PC speacialist Diwakar Ram after reaching Chile. He was actually the replacement for Sandeep Singh. Every one know what was the situation when Carvallo took over the team just 11 months back. But he could rejuvenate the team which was reflected in the final of the ASIA cup when we beat Korea 7-2 to qualify for the world cup. Now all other asian nations has to play the world cup qualifiers. As far as hocke is concerned World cup is to be put above olympics. Also even the world champion and the top ranked nation, Germany's fate also lies in the olympic qualifier forthcoming at Japan where Japan and Malasia and Poland also plays.One loss in the final will block their place as well. Argentina which is the 7th ranked team and who beat Newzeland in the league game(3-1)lost in the final with a golden goal. So few minutes of extra time decided the qualifier. All these point out to the bad system adopted by FIH for Olympic qualification. Earlier 5/12 was better in all resepect. So Gill is very much right in pointing out these facts. Joby Mathew Trivandrum
May be he's trying to take inspiration from Chak De India, the way SRK does the turnaround of a team and removing the black spot in his career.. But Sir, that was only a movie. The best thing you can do for Indian hockey is to resign. If you are sleeping since the last 15 yrs, how would u be able to do something now??
