They made the discovery after the club’s long-time president passed away suddenly, and the association gave signing authority to someone else.
“When we went back through the records, this is the anomalies we noticed,” said Andrew Wynn-Williams from the Gorge Soccer Association. “A lot of cheques had been cashed and that kind of thing, which, they may have been legitimate, some of them and some of them may not have been, but we won’t know.”
“We’ve initiated a forensic audit, and that will really give us the full information about what has gone on.”
