yes kerala, goa, west bengal nd north east watches football...but not in sufficient number. i m 100% sure cricket fans r far bigger in kerala nd west bengal. north east hv little population.
look every state hv football fans. i m from uttarakhand nd we played both (football nd cricket) in our childhood. we also want indian football team win games nd play world cup. but dont expect we r true football fans. we never spend money to watch football match in stadium. neither we spend our time to watch football match in TV. but we love to play football in evening with friends. thats kind of football fans in india mostly.
