Chirag United warns coach Subrata Bhattacharjee

Kolkata: Chirag United today warned its coach and former Indian defender Subrata Bhattacharjee for talking to press and giving statements without prior permission. Before their previous match against Mohun Bagan last week, Subrata created controversy when he said that bigger clubs were favoured by the referees in the matches. In a letter, Chirag chairman Kaustav Roy told the former international player who joined Chirag in the middle of the last season, not to interact with media and give any statement without permission. "In case Subrata continues to talk to the press and give statements, the club would be forced to take action against him," the letter said. It has been learnt that Subrata has been asked to speak only on technical matters of the club. Roy asked Subrata not to use the club`s platform in accusing or passing comments on other clubs or players. The letter also mentioned that Chirag players lost focus due to these sort of comments. The letter also expressed confidence on him and believed that the club would do well in the coming matches like they did in the first stage of the I-League. PTI
