Question: Budget For Super League vs. Premier League Teams?

[Bruce]

Question: What is the difference in annual budget between a Super League and Digicel Premier League club?

According to the blog of Portmore United's chairman, that club's budget is J$30 million per year (about USD $352,000)

And where does a promoted Super League team, which is simply a glorified parish team, come up with so much money so fast?

For a team that just come up the budget is a lot less. Portmore have a whole heap of players (stars)and program such as food etc. Most newly promoted teams can't pay player nowhere close to Tivoli, Portmore or Harbor View unless they have a godfather. However it is still a big step financially.
