You guys shouldnt be so high and mighty regarding taxes, you have/had plenty of players comitting tax fraud themselves.
The difference is that your club bailed out the players, our club refuses to help players in these cases, you have no moral high ground at all, "mes que un club" my ass.
Lol. No club is just. I am not saying Barca hasn't got any dirt, but RM is no different.
Its football, its a big business. You can't run a business being 100% clean, if a player's reputation is tarnished, the clubs image also gets tarnished. So, they try to cover up the mess.
And, AFAIK, these footballers aren't saints either. They know it more than well that they have done something wrong. They act innocent, just to look innocent. These guys earn more in a month, what many earn in their lifetime. Thus taxes are also very high, therefore they try to find ways to refrain from paying those taxes.
About Media, well news media is biased. It may be because of political pressure or Money, but its true in both ways, some will be biased towards first one, others will be biased towards the second one.
Its just about who has got the bigger Media companies on their side. RM wins it by landslide, whether you believe it or not, afterall they are a "Royal" club. Everything is for sale, Money talks.
