Barcelona charged with corruption

Time to look into the rags during the piss can era
Don't think they even bothered paying off the refs, they were mostly rag supporters anyway, who were happy with a few free tickets and backstage opportunities and the rest were scared of getting taken off the big games by Riley if they gave any decision against the scum.

Must admit, I’d love to see that Barca tosser back on here defending them, probably too busy crying into his Swiss cheese.
If they’re stripped of Champions League titles during this period, wouldn’t the arse and rags benefit ?
No doubt they’ll be straight on it, all signed up on headed letters.
Arsenal at Rymans already!
 
I think players and managers need to take a greater interest in how the club is being run. What are the levels of compliance and are there any whistle blower mechanisms to keep a club honest.

Messi as a footballer might have almost every major trophy he has ever won on trial.

Imagine what Pep must be thinking right now. All those red cards for Real Madrid in the EL clasico. RVP being sent off in the CL. The Chelsea-Barcelona semi final. How deep does this go?

They rigged it
Don't think too far Gooner, it's only about Spanish refs not European refs, and yes Barca got many favorable calls in big CL matches, so have Madrid, United and other "history" clubs, these clubs know how to pressure and intimidate refs to give them favourable calls, Ferguson was the master of it.
 
I’ve no idea really mate, I get the feeling if they’ve done it domestically, there’s a slight chance it wouldn’t stop there (as mentioned, that tie v Chelsea was ridiculously suspect, “IT’S A DISGWACE” I remember one player shouting into the camera lol), whether they’d open that can of worms I’m unsure, but like I said, certain clubs when it benefits them aren’t slow in writing club headed letters .


I think it was Didier Drogba. At the final whistle he was going berserk - and rightly so. The refereeing for that game was diabolical.
 
Still not understanding if our Barca crew are linked to this or not.

Could this be the Onouha letter moment for Soriano? Or Pep?

Those accused have been named and Soriano is not one of them. Unless something crawls out of the woodwork, he is safe. Similarly Txiki.


It happened under their watch. Payments to Negreira happened from 2003-2020.

Pep, Txiki and Soriano’s achievements will all be tarnished by it, but seems none of them were directly involved.

And then by extention so will City, i.e. if they were rotten before then surely there were brown bags afterwards. Won't have to be true.

Personally I don't give a shit what people say. :-)
