How is MEG eligible for the I league qualifiers?[edit]

How is MEG of Bengalore Super Division eligible while KSEB, Punjab Police and CRPF not eligible for the I league qualifiers? Bharat0078 (talk) 14:01, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's why the professional football shaping is not Cristal clear! Harsh bt that's reality. Billjones94 (talk) 14:19, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MEG, KSEB, PUNJAB POLICE, CRPF , AIR FORCE ETC are public sector undertakings. AIFF had released a statement few year before mentioning these teams will not eligible for ileague. In NFL you can see PSU teams. MalabarGun (talk) 15:00, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why is J&K Bank FC not eligible[edit]

Why is JKFA winners J&K Bank FC not eligible for the 2nd division they are not the government team they are owned by a private Bank just like last season's AU Rajasthan FC. @Messi Khar: @MalabarGun: @Billjones94: Bharat0078 (talk) 13:46, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's why the professional football shaping is not Cristal clear! Harsh bt that's reality. I'm also not taking these matters easily; AIFF is 😆 Billjones94 (talk) 14:24, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

But they should be nominated as they are the champions previously they were also interested in 2018 but AIFF chose Lonestar kashmir. Bharat0078 (talk) 14:34, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

J&K is govt of India undertaking, while AU small finance commercial bank which is private MalabarGun (talk) 15:04, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 3 September 2021[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved to 2021 I-League Qualifiers.

There is no support for keeping this article at its current name, so it must be moved. The proposer now supports moving to 2021 I-League Qualifiers, which Lee Vilenski also supports (albeit weakly). GiantSnowman supports move to "2021 I-League qualifying tournament or something", which could include the proposed name. Accordingly I find a (weak) consensus to move to that name.

2020–21 I-League 2nd Division → I-League Qualifiers 2021 – For the last 2 years, the format of this division has changed. Instead of a league, it's a qualifier tournament held just before the I-League. There are no constant teams. Teams are being nominated by the state FAs and final selection is being done by AIFF. No pyramid structure as such for the past couple of years. All media reports, official websites mention it as I-League Qualifiers. So, I would like to propose that the name of season articles of the past 2 years, i.e. 2020 and 2021, should be changed. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 13:48, 3 September 2021 (UTC) — Relisting.

Changing the proposal to more appropriate name as per convention 2020–21 I-League 2nd Division → 2021 I-League Qualifiers Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 08:01, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose move as suggested, instead move to 2021 I-League qualifying tournament or something, in-line with e.g. 2020–21 FA Cup qualifying rounds. Giant Snowman 10:25, 4 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
~~Oppose~~ I-League Qualifiers 2021 per year first. Sawol (talk) 10:45, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Sawol, I proposed this as per the official name. Its kind of commonname too, as all media outlets refer it like that. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 07:36, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/League season takes precedence over the official name. Sawol (talk) 05:03, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    - I see Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 08:00, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- No Oppose and no support 2021 I-League Qualifiers. I'm unfamiliar with Indian football leagues. Sawol (talk) 08:51, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
it has both names listed, and both are correct. it is still level 2 with promotion/relegation between i leage/state leagues, despite some entries or length.
- Thats a whole different thing, your are saying... Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 07:39, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - this seems like a bit of a mess. The article certainly shouldn't be at its current title, as it doesn't seem like it's ever called that. At the very least 2021 I-League Qualifiers is a better target. That seems like the term used most often. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:11, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
