Josep Maria Bartomeu

[DonAK]

Politics is a dirty game. . . So, whatever.
When you fight don't fight fair cos you'd never win!
I really don't care who wins, but what Bartomeu is doing is allowed.

It's not. Say whatever you want about how dirty politics is, but as a candidate, he nor the club is allowed to use FC Barcelona to influence the voters into voting for one cadidate.

Seguim Creixent = Continues to grow
Seguim Guanyant = Keep winning

How is that suppose to influence the polls?
I agree this is covert campaigning, but that is what makes it vague.
Honestly, no one can fault his actions. They will need hard evidence of an open attempt to persuade votes in his favour.

Maybe because that is a brochure of Bartomeu's campaign/program....which tells people to vote for him.... and that THE CLUB sent these and ONLY Bartomeu's brochures were in it. No other candidates, only theirs.

How about sending his electoral programme in club mail?

Oh right, that's allowed. Silly me.

What Bartomeu is doing with those brochures is subconsciously manipulating socis to vote for him. Advertisements on tv do the same thing, even if you don't pay attention to them. It's still registered by the brain and it will make someone, especially those who have not yet decided, more likely to vote for Bartomeu.

The thread about elections is this one: http://www.barcaforum.com/showthread.php/12525-Barca-elections-2015
Discussions about the debate should be held there.

I thought that all soci information was protected by data privacy laws so by right bartoneu should have had no accsess to the details. Yet another law broken

It's not only about influencing the voters to vote in some way, it's firstly about using the clubs infrastructure to reach voters, because he has access to it, and Laporta doesn't.

You're right, I forgot to mention it wasn't fair in relation to the other candidates.

What a piece of trash, the club's doing a lot of work for a supposedly resigned president...

 

[yahudi]

One thing that really bothers me about the Rosell/Bartomeu presidency is the increasing pettiness in the club's actions.

Like the colored copies. Or the article about "the patient midfielder" (as opposed to the "impatient" Thiago). Or the official statement about Cesc's departure and his post-January form dip. Or the recent situation with Cruyff's signature being void. The kind of stuff a really big club should be able to stand above.

 

[Barcaman]

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are other two biggest clubs and both proved being suspect to similar mistakes.
But I do agree with you in general and I didn't like it either.

Has barto said whether he will open up the membership? Guessing he won't as his friend Rosell was the one that changed it.
