ISL approaches AIFF to improve quality of refereeing
Miffed by the falling standards of refereeing, the Indian Super League has approached the All India Football Federation to work on a short term solution and also have a long term outlook on how to improve the same for its games. IANS has reliably learnt that Football Sports Development Ltd officials, the organisers of the ISL, met AIFF during the FIFA international break in New Delhi and one of the key discussions were on the quality of refereeing in the ongoing sixth edition. “The officials have requested the federation to urgently look into the matter to find short term solution and also work on a long term outlook to the referee development program,” the source said. ISL used to attract international referees in the initial years of the league with a balance of 40 per cent international and 60 per cent Indian referees but that trend changed since the fourth season with AIFF pushing for Indian referees.
