      Thanks

      “GODS OWN BOYS”


    22. Maria Teresa George

      Mr. Vivek,
      I dont know if your reading all this. but u need to change the name of the ream ASAP. if not for us in Kerala, at least for your goodwill and for the money you invested ! the name stinks to stay the least ! people all over india and possibly the rest of the world will laugh at it till the world’s end…. so please save all of us the humiliation of watching sreesanth and boys walk into the pitch wearing orange jerseys bearing a mosquito repellent as a logo with the cheerleaders chanting – go commando(s)…. coz believe u me – u’ll need a lot of cheerleaders as no one else is coming !


    23. Adv. Madhu V. Surian

      Congratulations Mr. Vivek, I wish u all the best to u and u r team.
