The opinion piece on CISNOC forgot to mention the social media releases after the AGM praising the ex-VP despite his court appearances past and present.

They also praised the ex-president who under his watch allowed the ex-VP on the board, lost $30,000+ from his secretary general brother, paid the last secretary general fulltime salary while he was working overseas and was part of the Paris Olympics entourage of 15 officials for two athletes. How embarrassing! Plus, the (former) treasurer gets praised even though they have two years of financial accounts not accepted by the sports federations. They also employed the secretary general's daughter to take over the $80,000 per year job even though she was/is responsible for the finances of CISNOC. There is more dirt to be cleaned up. Will the new board try to do it?

How much annual support does Cook Islands Football Association (CIFA) receive from Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA). Some say it’s a whole lot of money.

The question is this, should some of that money be spent to address what the average punter might perceive as the potential for the visible rust on the stadium’s superstructure to get to the point of structural integrity being compromised?
