I thought Galways budget was supposed to be very low ?
There seems to be some mixed messages.
I recall Nick Leeson saying in early December that they had to sort it out, and it could be anywhere from zero to €175k. Further talk (which could have been from Sean Connor!) about a major sponsorship form a local businessman.
In the interview with SC on another thread, he says that Shaun Kelly is joining them on Tuesday for training. I imagine Kelly would want a contract at a cost of about €28k to €30k.
Can any Galway fans clarify latest on budget?
Reported in todays mail that the FAI rejected Bohs projected budget for this season.
It was reported that a Bohs official said the changes required "were not unmanagable". So the player registartion embargo remains in place for now.

BTCWD, Im just wondering which of your many Nostradamus like predictions you are referring to?
This one?
[QUOTE=BYCTWD;1305411]It is my understanding that they have. Which means that bohs, who were budgeting to win all three domestic trophies, will have to readjust down at least €250,000, or 5k a week on wages.
The "Nutsy is gone to Dundeee United on a two year contract"
The prediction that Bohs would include Albion payments in the 2009 SCP figures?
The points deduction prediction for Bohs breaching the 65% in 2009?
If its the prediction that it would take Bohs a month to get through the budget approval processs for 2010, then you are on the money.....for once. Congratulations, give that man a trophy, he hasn`t seen one in sixteen years.
If you get board with the I told you so stuff on here ,check out the comedy gold on Gypo webs. budget rejected thread.

Meanwhile, Bohemians must re-submit their budget for the new season after the FAI rejected their proposal yesterday.
A club source said last night that there was 'nothing unmanageable' in the changes that were required for the champions but as things stand, Bohs can't register their signings for the new season.
All the more annoying when a certain club owed a seven figure sum and got away with it . Then the council give them a free ground and moral high ground

What a nuts way to do a budget!Bohs were only allowed to factor league prize money of €40,000 -- the amount available to the team that finishes last in the Premier Division -- into their figures, although they were previously planning to account for a finish of no worse than third in the table.
It really does show though that the FAI need to sort out the prize money situation. It should taper far more gradually from top to bottom. Currently there is far too much incentive to gamble on it.
I don't think that Bohs budgeting for coming third is massively unreasonable though.

No it doesn't. That potentially punishes other clubs for no reason.
Financial projections should be done on a prudent basis, whatever business you are in.
Doing it on the minimum guaranteed prize amount is probably a bit harsh, but given Bohs (like Derry and many other clubs) have shown an inability to adhere to previous budgets, its no surprise they are being given limited scope to use their own judgment.
