The Blasters have been up and down in the three seasons of the ISL but have never won the title. They reached two finals in Season 1 and 3, going down to ATK on both occasions and in Season 2, they finished on the bottom of the league standings.

The two-time finalists are very popular back home and their matches usually see full houses every single time. They are the only team in the league that have averaged an attendance of more than 50,000.
