Josep Maria Bartomeu

He did a good job since Rosell left.

This is what i am talking about, it is very clear that everything he did so far was to win elections. What is the guarantee that he will not do any deals like douglas and fill his pockets? He will whore the club with shady sponsors and then don't get me started on the club jersey.

sonovabeach... got the treble, got Alves and Pedro to renew the contract (mind you both of them had a foot out of the club), got Vidal (a Catalan!) and last but not the least, got Lucho to renew his contract!

I think he is in a great position to win the election

Barto is free to capitalize on the team's success in his outgoing pressy but he was never elected in the first place and remains under investigation in the Neymar case

Most issues have been hammered out before this contentious campaign begins but just like Cesc was poached during the commotion of the campaign in 2003, we should hope little happens with respect to some of our youth talents - Deulofeu, Samper, Adama, Munir etc

You are just trying to set circumstances where nothing Barto did was for club or he gets credit for.

Ridiculous.

Laporta would surely speak of roses and sun instead of the treble. Because he was so modest.

I doubt very much Laporta will discount the treble, he's blaugrana through & through...Lest we all forget, Rosell did the opposite when Joan led the club when they got their first treble

Do we all forget what the first few months under Rosell & Barto was like?...How they were obsessed with undermining everything Laporta did eventhough they had already won the elections?

I think he has a chance ,but Laporta still the favorite tbh
For starter ,laporta is considered a club legend by many ,cleared from all charges that pointed to him and this gr8 era of the club started at his tenure
Bartomeu has done good job no doubt ,but it is tough to convince voters to vote for a guy under investigation and risk of having a president who can go to jail .
Anyway ,I won't hate seeing either win and honestly I don't think anyone should .both candidates seem to offer a lot to the club .still like Laporta more

I just think it would be big horrible mistake to vote for this board again. There is good chance barto might end up in jail, don't want anymore controversy around the club. Sure he did some nice things in the end but anyone in his position would. And we don't need to act like he just signed messi.

Barca is not the biggest club financially according to Deloitte. Atleast he shouldn't lie about that.

Interesting times ahead, really looking forward to see how the elections turn out.

Most of all, I'm just really happy that the club has landed on both feet after an incredibly tumultous year. It finally started to turn around in January, and now look at us - we're now in a much more stable position on all fronts. Important players and figures have renewed, and we can build on an already treble-winning side. Only big head scratcher will be to find a midfielder to replace Xavi, and we need to do all we can to pick the right one on the first try this time.

Neymar case, Rosell/Teixeira/Traffic, B team relegation, Qatar, Pep attacks, stadium fiasco, FIFA ban, losing youth talents, Abidal, Valdes, Thiago, exploitation of Tito, Faus et al pushing Messi out of the club, kicking Cruyff to the curb (Then trying to invite him back ahead of the elections in Berlin), Douglas, de-emphasis of the cantera & Sport/MD back to being embarrassing

Time to course correct

You are recycling same old shite Mike. Not everything you mentioned was Bartomeu's responsibility and Laporta's list of crimes is long too.

Same board though, Bojan...And I never said Joan was not guilty of any wrongdoing but in terms of both sporting success & club reputation, can there be a more striking contrast between the first treble & this one and the respective boards?

I've only followed the club for just over 15 years but I have never seen the club's reputation poorer than it has been with this board...Night & day
