In a blunt and explosive statement, the coach alleged that a certain section of people does not want the club to progress, leading to unnecessary hurdles in his management of the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Addressing the media after a disappointing result, George did not mince his words. &#8220;There are many who actually don&#8217;t want the best for this club. They are constantly trying to pull us back while we strive for improvement,&#8221; he said. While he avoided taking direct names, his comments hinted at a deep-rooted internal rift between the coaching staff and influential figures within the club hierarchy or external stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The timing of this outburst is critical, as East Bengal continues to struggle for consistency in the league. Supporters have reacted with shock and anger, demanding accountability for those sabotaging the legendary institution. Critics believe that such a public display of frustration reflects the toxic environment currently prevailing in the dressing room. Whether the club management stands by the coach or initiates disciplinary action remains to be seen, but the &#8216;internal sabotage&#8217; theory has certainly damaged the team&#8217;s morale ahead of their upcoming fixtures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>East Bengal coach Bino George has stirred a massive controversy in the Maidan by claiming that there are elements within and around the club working against its success.
