Good to have continuity. The stadium is iconic for KBFC fans. But I hope the club also looks at improving the fan facilities and seating. It gets very crowded on match days.

Rowllin Borges is a solid signing. We needed that experience in midfield. Hoping he can control the game like he did for Mumbai City. Tough opener against Mohun Bagan though!

As a football fan living in Kochi, this is the best decision. The connection between the club and the city is special. The energy in that stadium is unmatched in Indian football.

Commitment to fans is good, but the club's statement feels repetitive. We hear this every season. Real commitment would be showing ambition in the transfer market and finally winning the trophy! The fans deserve that.

The heart of Kerala football beats in Kaloor! This is where history is made. Excited for the new season. Hope we can fill the stadium for every game. #YennumYellow
