    No sponsors are going to touch this club for years. There is too much dirty stuff going on behind the scenes. So good luck to the new president trying to bring in new money into the club.

    Besides, Bartomeu and co will just get a slap on the wrist. Bartomeu might have just fucked this club even more.

    Should we just close the doors and throw away the key yet?

    Some of the biggest companies in the world are sponsoring the FIFA and the Qatar World Cup despite nearly a decade of controversies, corruption and human rights violations surrounding that event.

    Biggest piece of shit to ever have a connection with Barca. Pigo is a saint compared to him.

    Hope he rots in prison for life, while sharing his cell with a Boixos Nois.

    Ex-Barcelona president Josip Maria Bartomou has reportedly been arrested. Catalan police raided the offices of LaLiga giants Barcelona, amid a CORRUPTION investigation.

    It was claimed that the club whilst under Bartomou?s presidency had paid a social media company to discredit key club figures - in a scandal daubed ?Bar?a-gate?.


    Bartomeu and his board of directors resigned last year, after a controversial falling out with star player Lionel Messi.

    Catalan police have confirmed they have made several arrests in connection to the raid, but would not confirm the number of people arrested or their identities.
    what exactly is illegal about that

    They paid 200,000 euros in 5 instalments which was apparently a massive overpayment so possible money laundering involved.

    that's A LOT just for some twitter accounts to spread false rumors. You can't make this up. Everyone got PAID by this club.

    Also it's illegal to create 1000 bots to attack people on the internet

    Ridiculous amounts.

    These are some of the things they were posting from their various sports pages on social media:



    Very basic stuff for 1 million euros. Also a Uruguayan company rather than Spanish seems strange. Has money laundering written all over it imo.

    Didn’t hear about that part? But if true is ironic as Barto used to claim all the “ValverdeOUT” posts on social media were from bots rather than real fans.....
