The funniest part of all this talk about laporta,is that while barto was ruining the club, I could name the handful of posters here who were talking shit about him, before the very end when it was clear as day he fucked us over.
Most were either were silent or constantly talking about club de amigos, without giving any thought to who was enabling them, because fundamentally we were still winning leagues and getting to the CL QF at a bare minimum.
But now all of a sudden the entire forum wants to play arm chair president.

They weren't rooting hard, only a few were
But most of the forum was quiet as a lamb as he ruined us or focusing on the amigos, not the man enabling them.
But now all of a sudden everyone has found their voice and has become arm chair president, to criticize a man that gave us gold and we threw it away.
Who return and has built a new that fans now have expectations of winning league titles and making deeper runs in the CL,despite the financial issues.
Who has saved us from literal financial collapse, some may disagree the way he went about it, but refinancing the debt had to be done.
Fans here constantly talk about levelers and using it to sign players, forgetting it was 800m in levelers and only 140 was spent on players, where did the rest go?, it went to ensure our debtors didn't come calling.
To a man that under all these shitty circumstances, is building us a new stadium
A president that every single season since being here, he's figured out away to improve the team.
A bit of context is needed by all the arm chair presidents, because I don't know who they think could be doing a better job right now and I certainly didn't hear all of them talking out against barto during his time here, so going off that, I think they probably don't know what their talking about in most instances.

Yea if rosell wasn't a piece of shit,he would have been the 2nd best option to follow after laporta, which means we wouldn't have been cursed with Barto, but he fucked up any chance of that.
Soriano would have been the best option after laporta but he choose city.
If soriano and Tixki were saying we want to be President, I could understand those who want laporta out, but who the hell is gonna replace laporta if he leaves? Font? Helllll nooooo.

I'm hoping Txiki runs. Rumors he'll leave City along with Pep after next season.
Txiki would probably bring along a lot of competent people not only for the business-side, but also football-side with scouts, directors, management people, and perhaps even some investment from the Emiratis lol.

Bro pipe down fatporta didn’t do anything revolutionary
He signed Torres for 60m, Lewa for 55m on 500k a week, lost Messi for free, and many many other blunders.
Barto himself said there were many options, he would have signed the CVC deal to sign Messi as an example or sold Barca studios with a buy back clause.
Seems we haven't hit the bottom yet. Now there are talks of sacking Xavi for running his mouth ( as if playing shit and going nowhere near winning trophies wasn't enough).
Not that I am fan of Laporta but he was supportive beyond reason to Xavi and desperately trying to maintain positive atmosphere around the club and now Xavi runs his mouth how club finances are dire and he can't get toys from his shopping list.

Playing a bit of devil's advocate here isn't it better for Xavi to say what the situation really is than create false optimism (or better said being delusional) like Laporta is doing though?
If Xavi will really be sacked it won't be because of what he said nor because that's what Laporta would really want but because pressure of board member will be just too much. If half of Laporta's board would resign then a motion of no confidence would be very likely and don't think that's what Laporta wants. Not because he wouldn't survive it (he probably would) but it would bring even more uncertainty to the club.
