The disaster Robert Pires has been to FC Goa in the current Indian Super league is what Manohar Parrikar has been to Goa. There was so much hype and expectation but both have miserably failed to deliver.
Despite having captained Panaji as MLA for 20 long years and having been Chief Minister of Goa from 24th October 2000 to 2nd February 2005 and once again from 9th March 2012 to 8th November this year Manohar Parrikar’s performance has been appalling with only empty promises and a string of unending U turns to his credit. On all the corruption and nepotism less said the better. The performance of Robert Pires too despite being the captain of FC Goa has been very unimpressive. He has failed to score with the team winning and playing high-quality football only when Robert Pires is rested on the stands. Likewise Goa may see ‘Acche din’ only if Manohar Parrikar is restrained from meddling in the State’s affairs by remote control which he brazenly now continues to do despite not being the Chief Minister of Goa. It is time Manohar Parrikar who is now rancid pickle is put to political rest and the fatigued Robert Pires hangs his boots.
