What it does not produce is saints; with one exception. When Sailen Manna died, 2,000 people followed his body to the Keoratala burning ghat in Kolkata, on the banks of the Hooghly river that flows out of the Ganges. They acknowledged they had lost rather more than a decent player. As captain, he did not raise his voice to players. He disciplined by example, and would refuse to take food before they had eaten theirs. Though he seldom let opponents past him, he was good friends with them off the pitch - even if they played for MB's great local rival, East Bengal. He had no enemies. Memories were his wealth, he told interviewers in his old age. He so loved the game that almost all of them were good; he needed no more.
