C.M. Chidanandan
C.M. Chidanandan in his teenage, started playing football at Brothers Club in Kannur.
He was one of the early heroes of Kerala football. A fearsome forward who kept rival defences guessing, and back-lapping once in possession.
In between, he also played
for Kolkata giant Mohun Bagan for one season in the company of greats like
Chuni Goswami, Jarnail Singh, Mariappa Kempaiah, Arumanayagam and T. Abdul
Rahman, before a bout of typhoid and an injury forced him to return home to
Kannur.
And, through the following
few years, he donned the colours of MRC-Wellingdon, prior to moving out of the
Army and taking up several jobs, including one in the Gulf and, on retirement,
settling down in Chennai.
He said, At the
Brothers Club in Kannur where he started playing as a teenager, there was an
internal league, with players divided into five teams. And these matches then
used to draw crowds of more than 3,000 spectators. Now we seem to have a very
small number of tournaments.
