Huh? So they intentionally declared a bigger loss and that helps us how?
And why would Bartomeu be the scape goat if La Liga's audit found fewer losses than what Laporta declared?

I'm with Laporta. Going with such a huge and important project and having it thought out by Barca's undertaker Bartomeu is dumb, or at least gives me huge question marks. The guy was incompetent and who's to say this new Camp Nou project is not yet another Barto-disaster waiting to happen? So if there are worries about the project and the expertise of the team that won the project, act now and decisive. You can't joke around with that.
Barto does stadiums. Expect the construction equivalent of Coutinho and Dembele.

Most inflated transfers of all time. That's like paying Rolex money and getting Casio instead.
In a more serious note, I just don't have confidence that a project as huge as that, that was sketched and agreed under Bartomeu's tutorship and guidance, will go smoothly.

Not at all.
Just bad luck they didn't work out. Simple as that
Hazard cost around the same and flopped just as hard with 1 year on his contract.
Neymar delayed leaving until last minute for his loyalty bonus, whole world knew Barca had cash to burn and a point to prove
Madrid didn't have PSG stealing all their tranfer targets and paying Ronaldo's release clause did they?

Its always funny seeing people blame Bartomeu who is 10x smarter than They are and one of the most successful Catalan business men in history
There's nothing fishy or illegal going on really. It's just how they decided to set up the accounts.
The devaluation of 5 players discussed before was one part of this.
Here's an explanation I Messigicianed off Reddit

So classic Catalan politics at work. Blame the previous board for everything, create a little noise in the media about some dubious transactions and we move forward. Basically same thing that Rosell did when he took over from Laporta.
But somehow this is seen as Laporta being a genius
Don't have an issue with accounting maneuvering, but its all the more clearer Laporta lied about not being able to keep Messi.
Well, it's not something most didn't figured out by now anyway. Onward and upward I guess.

Bro the finanical issue was real. There is 0 chance messi would have been registered with that contract.
Are you drunk?
He's making the right steps and taking the difficult decisions. Not renewing Messi, not signing the CVC are huge decisions. Then the smaller ones like solving Griezmann, Coutinho, finding good players to slot in despite salary cap issues and now a reputable sponsorship deal signed.
Dissapointed with the resignations of what are key board personel. But then I'm reminded that in his previous tenure he had resignations of guys like Sandro Rossell and Bartomeu, who turned out as fecking corrupt disasters at the helm.

A fair assessment. Just don't like to be told lies.
