I-League: ONGC name Kashyap as coach

MUMBAI: ONGC have appointed Santosh Kashyap as their coach for the rest of the season, after Subrata Bhattachrya stepped down from the position citing personal reasons.
The former Mohun Bagan coach conducted his first session with the team here on Tuesday.
ONGC are at the bottom of the table with just seven points from 11 games and it may not be the ideal situation for some to take up the responsibility.But, Kashyap is no stranger to such challenges.
He arrived at Air India in the 2010-11 season when the team had just three points from six games. But it went on to finish a creditable 9th on the table.
"I've been in this position before and I don't see why I cannot turn this around for ONGC too.
Considering we are bottom-placed, the first target is to avoid relegation and then go for a finish in the top seven of the league," said Kashyap, whose first assignment is a home fixture against Shillong Lajong on December 22.
