What millions?

NZF is broke as it is. Any money made from the Mexico tie will certainly not go towards a "quality overseas coach".

Not gonna happen.

Broke? What are you on about? Have a look at the NZF 2012 Annual Report. NZF are doing a good job of managing the financial injection that came courtesy of NZ's WC appearance in 2010. This is probably one thing NZF can actually take credit for.

Also I've read a figure of $5 million from selling the second leg television rights and ticket sales. Reportedly there's still about $4.5 million of the WC 2010 money invested. That's hardly "broke".

The problem with bringing in a good overseas coach, and I'd love a fresh attacking mindset, is a lack of games. NZF hardly likes to dip into it's purse to fund internationals. However a new coach could target the next Confederations Cup in 2016, which should, if we qualify, be self-funding from the $1 million plus prize money for winning Oceania. That should be a decent carrot for any up and coming coach wanting to make a name on the international stage. Outside of Ramon Tribulietx of ACFC, I don't think there's a domestic coach good enough.

Couple of points.

They don't get $1m for winning Oceania. They get $1m as 1st loser at the Confeds. Its semantics, but your point stands. OFC don't have 2 cents let alone $1m. Much like ACFC don't get 500k for winning O League - they get it for 1st loser at CWC.

The $4-5 m went to the NZ Football Foundation who do grants for football stuff. Its not an investment at all. Essentially we have to make 5m stretch across 4 years because there is no money next year. If we spend it all this year, then we are definitely fucked next year.

Term speaks the truth. NZF hide the numbers so a casual glance makes it look like they are doing well. They are losing money hand over fist and spending beyond their means.
