Vip boxes are boring as hell anyway, I once ended up in one cause a friend's uncle got tickets trough the company he worked for and didnt want to go.
I guess we were the only ones who showed any emotion, all the otehrs were really stiff and quiet, even hushing us as if we were at the movies.
Only advantage was free drinks... Got extremely wasted and we were the lasts one out of the afterparty, spend nothing.
But in general the vipboxes seem like a waste of money, I rather have a better atmosphere in camp nou cause its more movie theather than Celtic.

Barçapocalypse NOW!
Basically clubs are becoming toys for multinationals and born in oil money sheikhs, football as we know it will eventually dissapear and we will have this nba type of superleague.

Which Rosell has always advocated for... He's known for pushing in favor of some kind of European Super League with the top teams for years...

All commercial opportunities must be pursued.

There will be a referendum anyway so the majority will get what they want.

Woah, 5000 seats, big deal. The stadium is rarely full so it doesn't make any difference.

Do some research. We have 89k season ticket holders. The seats may not have people in them but they are sold. Secondly it's not just 5000 extra seas. The camp Nou currently has 23 suites. After renovation it will have about 88. The concourses and facilities will also be upgraded and a roof will be added which will improve attendances during the winter.

This conversation should be taking place in the Camp Nou section. I'll repost the initial quote in that thread.

It´s not about the seats..geez. See the detailed plan to get a picture. Information is knowledge ans stops you from posting such misguided posts.

Why dont the press get off Martinos back? They make life really hard for any outsider. If it was Lucho or De Boer the press would be alot more forgiving. We need Martino as manager and we need stronger more direct players. Look at Bayern
They have married skill and passing with power and direction. This is the way forward. 9 midgets in the team wont cut it.

as a club we have never really done wonderfully well, when our main directive is to just win, as a club we need passion, we need a clear identity and a unique idea that unites the team and drives it forward.

which is way we did well with names like van gaal,pep,cryuff,rijkaard

this belief in something bigger than winning and losing, starts at the very top, with the president and comes down with the manager he appoints who then pass this on to the players.

much like rosell isn't that man.

Tata is not that man, he is not the man to make the players belief in a idea and rally around it till their death, he is and X's and O's man, which is why he does relatively well against the bigger teams. but his ideas will never join the team together over the long haul. and thats why he is the wrong man for barca.

people can talk about the players all they want, but to be barca you first need a Barca president and a barca coach.

then the players come next

seems like things worked for a lil' while then Tata has no clue anymore, not even on how to use Messi. We need a major shift, not just a few new signings
