    Camp Nou

    Don't make any Westerns about it. The club board decided not to enforce the 1m penalty on Limak based on factors concerning legal difficulties and most of all endangering the completion of the stadium project. That could be cleared in court on later date.

    Yeah, it was a friendly game. Marcelinho, naturalized Brazilian scored the goal and the game is mostly remembered for Cristiano Ronaldo missing a penalty. Saved by Vlado Stoyanov, which was his second save vs. CR7.

    Bulgaria

    A memoir from Hristo Stoichkov's book: "During a WC qualifier vs. Israel in 1993, Dimitar Penev (NT coach) at half-time drew a circle on the board and said: "This circle represents a shit. That's you, folks, you play like shit.". That was his whole speech." :lol:

    I got dizzy by the 5th minute. What a vision he had.

    Camp Nou

    I don't know what the municipality could ask for more to open the stadium. In @Porque words, let's play at Nou Mestalla instead, then.

    Bulgaria

    It's interesting, because our analysts compare Bulgaria and Norway. Where we were as a powerhouse in the 70&80s and Norway. We had a draw with Norway about that time and it was considered scandalous back then. Indeed has to start at grassroot level. But this will take 10 years the least and if...

    Bulgaria

    I don't feel good starting this thread. Just lost 1-6 to Turkey at home last night. It's a tragedy and Bulgaria have been trying to bounce back for the last 20 years. The football union shifts the blame to the clubs, who field 7-8 EU passport foreigners in every club. The thing is the...

    Camp Nou

    Could be it and I've noticed it as well, but work on third tier has been going on as well. Something unnecessary if we really focused on returning to Camp Nou in Laporta's promised schedule.

    Printing money causes inflation inside a given country, but it doesn't affect global trade prices.

    Camp Nou

    Spin or no spin, the war in Ukraine is a factor in European economy and denying it is simply ignorant comment. You can blame any side, it's off-topic anyway in this thread. To bring back the conversation to the main point - unfortunately I think Camp Nou will go over budget, but not drastically...

    Camp Nou

    Prices after the flu pandemic went down in construction. My company initiated this construction project in late 2021 estimated at 300k euros and when finished the final cost in spring of 2023 was 450k. Operational costs skyrocketed due to Russian oil embargo during that period. Not to mention...

    Camp Nou

    I don't know about this maximum cost, sounds like the delay penalty Limak promised that's been thrown around from time to time. Real Madrid had to take a 400m loan to finish Bernabeu's renovation last year. Initially it was estimated to cost 1.3b.

    Camp Nou

    The cost of the stadium is an estimate. The market value of construction materials is not fixed and unfortunately post-Ukraine invasion prices are only going up in most of goods.

    Mateu Alemany

    As a local saying goes: "Too many aunties/grandmas, a skinny baby.". You need one strong figure in charge, not a conglomerate of three.

    Wasn't also Jordi Cruyff in this conflicting position, Alemany & Deco?

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    It's normal to struggle with 4 players injured at wing and midfield. Rashford almost raised the number to 5 yesterday.

    F1

    I don't know really by now. Piastri was pissed after the race (unusual) due to the incident with Lando at the start. It was clear as a day McLaren were to reach this point with two drivers fighting for the championship. Papaya rules by now are simply "shut up and drive, we'll deal with your...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    Tired? It's fucking start of October. What I've been talking about all this time - without Pedri in full mode, Frenkie is just average. It's like in any line of work, you leave the hard task to the more capable and without them you suck.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    The short bench is the problem. We have 15-16 quality of players out of 28 squad. Most of them are injured or injury-prone. Same with club finances. I think the club is overachieving in this climate and I should not complain. This is our optimum. I would bitch about otherwise if Barca had the...
