• The first sentence in the lead - 'Manjappada are the organised supporters' group of KBFC"... are they the only organised fan group? I suggest changing the to an, or, if you have a source for it, the largest.

• At the logo page provide rationales for WP:NFCC#1 and WP:NFCC#2, i.e. for why it is not replaceable by free-use media and why you think it won't hurt the owners commercially, ASAP. (Second point is not too important, but do try to justify NFCC#1). If you cannot then explain why. Wilhelm Tell DCCXLVI ^{converse | fings wot i hav dun} 07:57, 19 December 2020 (UTC) reply

Comments by Lee Vilenski (in WP:Discord)

• During the 2018–19 season, the Blasters were winless in 14 games and fans became dissatisfied with the management's indifference towards them. Although Manjappada boycotted a December 2018 game against Jamshedpur FC,[19] "We don’t intend to boycott our club’s matches, since our motto is 'Nammalk Nammalund' ('We have us')" stated the group. - not really sure what this means  Done Shahoodu ( talk) 14:20, 25 December 2020 (UTC) reply
• The "Manjappada stand" originated in 2014, during the Blasters' first season.[ - what is this? :Clarified  Done Shahoodu ( talk) 14:20, 25 December 2020 (UTC) reply
• Id argue that culture section needs a rewrite - most of it is obvious, or pointless.  Done Shahoodu ( talk) 14:20, 25 December 2020 (UTC) reply
