When the pandemic allows it and the COE authorizes it, Belgrano will hold the elections to renew its authorities. The contest at the polls will be between “Belgrano Primero” by Luis Artime and “Siempre Belgrano” by Armando Pérez.
In the call to the partners, in addition to inviting them to participate in the elections, they will be notified of the assembly that will be held immediately after, in which the balances of 2018 and 2019 will be considered.
Both exercises yielded a significant surplus. But the most important thing for those who are the members of the club is the patrimonial growth that now amounts to 1,409,292,673.41 million pesos at the end of the 2019 fiscal year.
At the April assembly last year, when relegation to the First National was a reality, the partners in addition to requesting that they all leave and remembering with insults the direct relatives of the members of the board of directors, they did not approve the report or the balance that the leaders presented corresponding to 2018.
Now, when the sovereign body of the institution is carried out, there will be two accounting exercises that will be considered by the people: that of 2018, which showed a surplus of 32,156,362.35 pesos, and that of 2019, which was also very favorable with a resulting from 521.935.287,87.
Again, as has been the case since the club ceased to be managed to become member-controlled on July 1, 2011, the results of the balance are positive.
Some numbers
All Pirate members who want a copy of the balance can go to the clubhouse at Arturo Orgaz 510 and obtain it there. And in the numbers that will be seen in the provisions between January 1 and December 31 of last year, some stand out such as the one framed in Resources for player transfers and loans which indicates that in 2019 it was more than 900 million and in 2018, 185 million pesos. Remember that last year some transfers were made such as those of Tomás Guidara, Juan Brunetta, Gabriel Alanís, Federico Lértora and Matías Suárez.
Members contributed to the club last year 217 million between social fee and payment of location in the stadium, while a year earlier they had left 283 million, that is to say, an income of 23.32 percent in associates’ currencies was lost. Being the monthly average income in this area of about 18 million pesos.
Expenditures on salaries, social security contributions and other compensation were 317.351.263,16 in 2019, while in 2018 it had been 334,835,088, 92, achieving a decrease of approximately 17 million.
This is Belgrano in numbers, with a very high patrimonial growth that almost forgot that terrible 2002 when bankruptcy was a reality, institutional life stalked and goods were scarce.
