It’s not even enforceable. Imagine we have Webb on the pay roll that isnt invoiced nor had any actual proof services were carried out and we came out shouting about lawsuits
Barcelona: Charged with corruption .... again!
- Thread starter The Boy
- Start date
Well now you’re getting sued. Hope it’s been worth it.
Interesting article today’s Guardian which Ter Stegen describes a new optimism within the Barcelona dressing room.
Xavi has managed to revive a team in transition in a similar way to Ten Hag. They’re also quite reliant on some of the youngsters who’ve come through, notably Gavi and Pedri and of course de Jong who has re-established his role in the midfield.

Fake news! They are the straightest cnuts around!
Hopefully this latest story is a distraction for them tomorrow. Does seem very dodgy, why would the payments not be invoiced / recorded?
Effectively. Because the news is going to be distorted by the media, in fact it is already happening, most and the most important are from Madrid and to insinuate that Barcelona bought referees and was favored. It has already happened in the past, here we are already used to these things. It's just another one.
Who among us.
Apparently they had 1 penalty given against them in 108 games during this consultancy period..
From sources of the club's management consulted by those who have advanced the information, "at that time this commercial relationship is recognized and it is maintained that these works were carried out and that the reports of DASNIL 95 SL are archived and that they can present them at any time before a court. It was paid (a lot or a little) but the work was done."
Hahaha ok. Open bar for everyone!!
Jokes on them. I haven't a fecking penny.
Wasn’t given the transfer ban until after his consultancy period ended.
Is that actually true? Do the dates line up?
Sounds in Legit...Hard to imagine them going down like Juventus though...
In our football you don't have to pay. Just being Liverpool or Spurs is seemingly enough...
If they go down they’re dead with all the levers they sold.
And it remains the same even at a different level. Why do you think they always end up in the top two in the league, while constantly being humiliated in Europe by heavy defeats? This is in addition to what they are allowed to do; they even signed players with a negative salary cap to register them
I hope we smash these corrupt bastards into oblivion.
I'm sorry but this is dodgy af. What ref report is useful for scouting reports?
I'm almost unwilling to ask the question as I'm about to be quoted by Barca bots with some mental gymnastics. Let's see if La Liga has the balls to do something about it.
FC Barcelona May Face La Liga Relegation Following $1.5 Million Referee Payment Allegations

It will not happen, who are we kidding - but those boys from Barcelona (Rossell Bartomeu, Ferran Soriano) surely love to pay outside the rules

So Barca admits there were payments, but there are no invoices? Good accounting and all that...
Bartomeu is more corrupt than Berlusconi.
Even if you think of the most favorable way for Barcelona on this issue and you believe in the good nature of the reports this guy was providing, isn't there is a clear conflict of interest here?
Always thought the moment someone dares to look deeply into Barca's affairs we would have a Lance Armstrong 2.0.
DeepL translation: In relation to the information published in the last hours about the former vice-president of the CTA, José María Enríquez Negreira:
The CTA wants to make it clear that Mr. Enriquez Negreira is not part of any federative structure since the change of government carried out after the 2018 elections.
The Technical Committee of Referees regrets the behaviors that may be likely to undermine the ethics of the estate. No active referee or member of the bodies of the CTA may carry out any work that is likely to enter into a conflict of interest.
The CTA is at the disposal of the Judiciary to offer its maximum collaboration in any type of information that this Committee may provide.

They claim that the money was paid due to advisory work that Negreira carried out on how players should behave towards referees, and he also gave tips on what they can or cannot do depending on which official was refereeing a certain match.
That's a lot of money to pay for useless advice.
They’re not allowed to even work together so even the excuse has fecked Barca over
What a rotten club
Can't wait for Pep's impassioned defense ;-)
Hope we feck them up even more.
He could blame Gerrard slipping again. Then apologise the day after.
If it is a paid position on the referee board you would expect he needed to declare it and get approval but I doubt its allowed.
There is no way you spin this that doesn't look terrible and brings the game into disrepute.
So what's the upshot here if found guilty?
Points deduction or worse, Relegation?
Points deduction or worse, Relegation?
So... was he the master behind the roll over and die behavior of Barça players when within 90 m of referees?
Well its finally happened............a club I hate more than the scousers......... feck these two bob wankers, their corruption, their mind numbing arrogance and their hubris all the way to hell and back
During the years of the payments:
79 matchdays without a penalty against, 59 without a red card, record number of penalties awarded (19)
79 matchdays without a penalty against, 59 without a red card, record number of penalties awarded (19)
La liga would have to denounce and then the affected teams. Personally, I would say that absolutely nothing will happen.
This is becoming a bad month for Pep. Soon, the only titles he'll officially have won are those from his time at Bayern
I reckon I could win the league with Bayern.This is becoming a bad month for Pep. Soon, the only titles he'll officially have won are those from his time at Bayern
Unfortunately.
Should strip the titles in the two years they won them, and give them to second place (particularly the 15-16 where real were a point behind, but also atletico in 2018. Copal del reys are a bit trickier since its a knockout. No way they get relegated, it would kill the league
The league hates Barca. I could see them go
