There will be a large element of truth in this
And we should not deal with Barca again.
Period

Even more embarrassing that we constantly suck them off. Cancel this stupid friendly we’ve got against them and refuse to deal with the cunts.

Like a woman that’s been battered by her husband and just keeps going back for more.
If we dare sell Bernardo to them this summer I’ll genuinely stop following us until the Barca guys leave.

I will be horrified if we even contemplate selling Bernardo to them.
That would just be sickening to the core.
And why this ridiculous friendly? I mean just fuck off basket case Barca.

As has akready been pointed out, whilst the Spafia are in charge we will do everything that we can to assist Farca. I only hope the chairman stays close to any discussions. I find it fucking ridiculous but am not surprised at all

If assisting them is by putting them 1.3b in debt and having a shit team for the past 4 years, I'd say long it may continue. They have affinity to Barcelona, not sure they're that fond of the club to that extent, after all they were driven out. Maybe they have a soft spot for them but can't imagine them jeaporadising their cushty income for sake of sentiment. Sometimes it does feel like that, but when I look at the bigger pic, where we and Barcelona are, I know which club I'd rather be.
P.s can't see Bernie moving this summer, there is no chance them affording him. I can see him going next summer and us replacing him with Bellingham.

It’s not putting them in more debt. They owe various clubs over £100M in transfer fees. They’re structuring the deals to pay little upfront. And muppets like our lot are allowing them to do it.

Wow - the tide must be turning in our favor - amazed by this - is it a first i.e. a leak that shows how a cartel member tried to shaft us?
Are the old established power structures starting to creak, if only a little bit?

They , Barca, like the Rags are assuming that the money will keep flowing. Barca have sold their grandchildrens potential/future ... to get money now.
Actually , they should be declared bankrupt and that would be the best for the City of Barcelona. Finally accept they have to do something and not live on EU charity funding and dubious banks.

Barca need to be extremely successful Over the next 5 years or so otherwise they will end up doing a Leeds and go down into the depths .
They are taking a huge gamble .

To be honest did not expect that from them with our catalan connections, but what a fucking disgrace.
Sure, they will say that is the ex-board with Bartolomeu, but I still think we lack the ruthless to dig a hole and push these fuckers into it.

So Barca approached a bank for a loan using future income from CL tv revenues as security. UEFA said no - it's not guaranteed Barca will qualify or make progress. They are now apparently €150m away from the figure that La Liga needs them to be in order to register the players they signed. It's unbelievable that this is being allowed. It is esactly what FFP was bought in to stop and they are just ignoring it. It's the blatant hypocrisy that is most galling.
