INDIA'S soccer captain Bhaichung Bhutia insists his dancing days are behind him but the club he 'neglected' to appear on a celebrity television show is now telling him to face the music. Mohun Bagan handed the 32-year-old striker a six-month ban after he missed training to feature in the dance competition.

The suspension would prevent Bhutia, seen as key to India's hopes of a good showing at the 2011 Asian Cup, from signing for another club.
