The Red Machine was led for decades by Churchill Alemao, who was also the president of Goa Football Association and the Chief Minister of Goa.[18] His daughter Valanka Alemao is current CEO of the club.[19][20] Churchill Brothers emerged as fourth ranked Indian team, and 648 universally, in the international rankings of clubs during the first ten years of the 21st century (2001–2010), issued by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics in 2011.[21]


History



1988–2009


Churchill Brothers FC were founded in 1988 as Varca Club.[22][23] After one season, they renamed as Brothers Sporting Club.[24] Later on they were bought out by Churchill Braz Alemao and renamed as Churchill Brothers FC and emerged as runners-up of the National Football League thrice: 1996–97, 1999–2000 and 2001–02.[25][26] In the 1997–98 Asian Club Championship, Churchill Brothers went on to represent India. But, they had a forgetful debut outing as the Goan outfit was knocked out in the very first round by Vietnamese club Dong Thap with 2–1 aggregate loss.[27] In 1998, Churchill roped in Bassim Yonan, the first Iraqi player in India.[28]

After the take over by Churchill, the club went on to win the Durand Cup in 2007 and the 2008–09 I-League,[29][30] Durand Cup in 2009,[31] IFA Shield in the same year. They also emerged as runners-up of the 2007–08 I-League,[32][33] the inaugural season.[34] Through their I-League win Churchill Brothers FC were able to play in the 2010 Asian Champions League qualifiers which they lost and moved to the 2010 AFC Cup. During the AFC Cup they won two games against Al-Hilal Al-Sahili and finished runners up in their group, advancing to the next round. Finally, they were defeated 1–2 to Al-Qadsia at the Mohammed Al-Hamad Stadium.[35]

Odafe Onyeka Okolie is Churchill Brothers all-time highest goalscorer, with 128 I-League goals.[36]

2010–2019


Churchill Brothers had contracted manager Vincent Subramaniam for the 2010–11 season but through the season Vincent left his post as the manager[37] and club went the rest of the season with Croatian Drago Mamić, who has helped them win the IFA Shield that year.[38]

On 9 June 2011, Churchill Brothers announced they have signed former Portugal national football team assistant coach Manuel Gomes as permanent coach.[39][40] His start proved to be successful as the club captured the 2011 Durand Cup for the third team in their history in October 2011, defeating Prayag United 5–4.[41][42] However, on 15 February 2012, it was announced that Gomes had resigned and that former coach Carlos Roberto Pereira would be brought in on a caretaker basis.[43][44]

Then on 13 July 2012, it was announced that Mariano Dias had been signed to become their new full-time head coach.[45] After his first season in charge, Dias managed to lead Churchill Brothers to the I-League championship,[46][47] their second domestic title in the history.[48][49]

After the end of 2013–14 I-League season, Churchill finished on twelfth position with 25 points in 24 matches and was evicted from I-League for not fulfilling the Asian Football Confederation's club licensing criteria.[50][51] In that season, they clinched the 2013–14 Indian Federation Cup title.[52]

In November 2017, it was announced that Ukrainian Mykola Shevchenko joined Churchill as their head coach.[53] His first game as manager occurred on 2 December 2017, when Churchill took on Shillong Lajong, resulting in a 2–0 loss. His stint came to an end as he was sacked from the position.[54] Churchill then roped in Joseph Afusi of Nigeria as technical derector,[55] but were relegated at the end of the 2017–18 season, with just 17 points from 18 games.[56] However, their position was reinstated by the AIFF, after a successful appeal by the club.[57]

In August 2018, Romanian Petre Gigiu was appointed as head coach.[58] His first competitive game was on 28 October 2018 in Churchill's opening match against the reigning champions, Minerva Punjab. The match ended in a 0–0 draw.[59] At the end of the 2018–19 I-League season, they finished on fourth position with 34 points.[60][61][62]


2020–present


In September 2020, Churchill appointed Fernando Santiago Varela as head coach.[63][64] Under his guidance, Churchill emerged as the runners-up of the 2020–21 I-League with 29 points.[65][66][67][68] Although Churchill managed a win against RoundGlass Punjab in their last match, Gokulam Kerala FC were crowned champions courtesy of a better head-to-head record.[69]

Ahead of the 2021–22 I-League, Churchill roped in their first ever Guinean player Sekou Sylla,[70] and Romanian Petre Gigiu returned to the club as head coach.[71] They finished the season in fourth place.[72][73] The club later in November, reached final of Baji Rout Cup in Odisha,[74] finished as runners-up after defeat to Rajasthan United.[75]
