Fartomeu must be having nightmares right now. All these legal troubles, issues and Ney Sr taking his son to Paris anyway.

If it is true that Benedito's 'Vote of No Confidence" could be going on, Barto and co could actually be in trouble if Neymar leaves, his loss will be bigger for socios than all legal troubles

I won't count on it tbh.
Laporta survived after having the press against him and the team underperforming, while the press is backing Bartomeu right now.
People in Catalunya are more concerned about their independence vote coming up too.
How hard it is to sell Barcelona as a city and prospect of playing with Messi in a club that has been playing the best football in history of the game?
They are just too damn lazy and incompetent to build something as recent success came by chance and once in a lifetime generation. We knew midfield needed re-building in 2015 when Xavi was on his way out. Was it hard to give a phone call to Verratti or someone else and tell him: Listen there's a place for you here, don't sign another extension. Neymar came as he was a fanboy of Messi and wanted to join the Barca story of 2009-2012. Suarez came as he loved Barcelona and has a girlfriend from here and we failed to sign our first target Aguero
This board gets little credit for their "prize selling point" - the msn.

That was me, but I was just saying what I'd read. And it's apparently not true.
Oh, ok. Cheers.

It was reported many times that clubs can't put buyouts as high as they want, contracts play a role for sure. Most players in Liga has low buyouts, only RM are proclaimed to have insnane buyouts, but the fact they never officially report it and it seems it is all media bs.
That doesn't mean we are putting the highest buyouts.

Either way, those need to go as it hurts the league.
There's been some good steps, it has to be said. I don't like watching Barca at noon but it's a good thing nontheless. New, more fair, TV deal is also good. Hopefully, we'll see La Liga being marketed better and that buyout thing gone.

4 years, but the vote of no confidence will hurt him, i don't expect him to finish his term. If Neymar leave may be the socis will vote him out now.
Instead of moaning about the socios get off your ass and go sign up

I am far from an expert on law, but some broader concerns on the buyout clause law:
The problem with integration of any kind is that you cannot afford local legal frameworks go against the overarching framework. EU regulations for example are supposed to supersede and override the national-level law, otherwise integration could not work.
When the Boshman law was introduced it brought a lot of hardship to smaller clubs and it depleted home-grown talent but its uniform application within EU member states ensured that there are no exceptions and asymmetrical developments. In other words, in its harshness, it was fair because, even though it depleted less powerful economically clubs and clubs from modest leagues, it did so evenly.
What's the issue with the release clauses? If there is not a common overarching framework, enforced by UEFA, then the way they are implemented and included in the players' contacts will lead to different standards in the transfer market. How 'fair' is it in a common integrated transfer market to have players that their clubs have the privilege to 'refuse to sell at any price', like PSG-Veratti or Leipzig-Keita, and at the same time have Barca being obliged to include a buy-out clause in Neymar's contract and of determinate amount as well.
It seems to me that the clause issue should be centrally regulated and should be a part of FFP as well..
This multiple standard situation is totally against the already formed integrated common transfer market.
