Camp Nou

[jamrock]

Oh shit we about to play at the b team stadium.

Oooooooohhhhhh

 

[Illuminator]

Reports that we currently don't have a deal to play our Champions League games at Montjuic from February/March because they were delusional enough to believe Camp Nou would be ready.

And the City Council have booked various events for it because the club told them they wouldn't need the stadium in the second half of the season.

Wow, that would be really embarassing, playing CL KO Stage on neutral soil because of miscalculation.
Barca gonna Barca.

Estadi Cryuff will feel more like home than Montjuic

 

[Messi983]

We should play on Bernaleo.

 

[Andresito]

Borrow Mestalla, it's close enough

Pretty sure the Estadi doesn't have Uefa's requirements for them to allow CL games in there.

We still have to wait and see. If Barca can play in March in Camp Nou will mostly depend on the work inside the stadium that we don't see, as outside the two gigantic basement floors are very advanced and in many parts of the stadium, the last layer of concrete was already finished on the access floor. I think 2 months are enough to make the stadium accessible from all sides.
But will it be enough for the safety commission to allow games in there, I can't predict obviously, as much will depend how it'll look inside the stadium.

Current look: Goal Sur and most of the Tribuna site is already accessible in theory. The lateral side, they started to pour concrete on the top access layer, as you see in the picture and gol Norte they also reached the access level in some points. Until march is enough time to close the gaps everywhere in theory like the one between Gol sur and lateral we see here in the picture, but will that be enough is another question, as much depend on the work inside.

This shit is nowhere near ready by January

What was Laporta smoking installing seats already

 

[Porque]

Let's see how this plays out before we go to the circus.

But if we have to negotiate another stadium out for Champions League knockout because Montjuic is booked, then that would be a fail of epic proportions and would lead to Laporta having to step down.

Should have kept Xavi for that, be top of laliga and knocked out in the CL league stage.

 

[Loki]

then that would be a fail of epic proportions and would lead to Laporta having to step down.

Nope.

 

[Porque]

Imagine having to play CL KO games in Mestalla or Romareda.

There would be enough Barca fans in the area to fill the stadium. But still, terrible drop.

There is no evidence that Montjuic is booked, and there are some fact chechkers on reddit who looked at it and didn't see any events midweeks in CL period.

The whole rumours started by unreliable journalist in Marca.
