History for chopah

So looking at their accounts and reading their newsletters out to their members it would appear they are going to be utilising as much of the current club structure as possible in national league so it would be as accurate as you could assume that the accounts that sawu has put up are the ones being used to fund the National League. I read that they planned on using the existing coaching platform for NL and that has a cost of $360k per annum which would make sense as they have a couple of fulltime coaches (I am assuming McPherson is one of those on the payroll?) and a few part time. The balance sheet also shows Term deposits of over $800k which I am sure is part of the reason NZF approved their application. I have also looked up the societies database and there is no other entry remotely like the club name so unless they are doing something dodgy we can assume they are using the Eastern Suburbs AFC inc soc entity. So technically sawu is correct they have a football budget of around $1mil however that is for National League and winter operations. Of course it would be fair to assume that sponsorship for the NL would increase as would player costs (especially with six pros). Don't think there is much doubt they have a significantly larger budget than most apart from ACFC. Happy for you to prove otherwise.
