NEW DELHI, October 29: Though the DCM Cup football tournament organisers have called off this year's tournament with an idea to hold it sometime after the Bangkok Asian Games, they are unlikely to get the dates for it.According to the All-India Football Federation (AIFF) secretary K.N. Mour, the football calendar is so heavily packed that chances of holding the tournament after the Asian Games is very remote.
``The AIFF had to make adjustments to give dates to various tournaments. And with the Asian Games this year, we found it all the more difficult,'' Mour said.
Since the National Football League kicks off immediately after the Asian Games in December and will continue till March, there is less chance that DCM football tournament will get a date for the tournament before that.
