La Liga Round 27: Barca - Osasuna

[Horatio]

Sadly, it would make sense. What would a man, who has a full-time job in Barcelona, be doing in a hotel...

maybe his family lived too far to commute very day?

 

[Birdy]

He was the guy that was asking Gavi 'what day is it' after his concussion....

I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the team meets up in a hotel before the match, have breakfast/lunch together and then travel to the stadium on the team bus along with the rest of the staff. Not every manager does it like this, but it's such under Flick.

In any case it's reported he had a meal with the players and staff at the hotel earlier today.

He was there for 8 years, most these La Masia guys knew him from childhood probably

 

[FC B]

Such a sad thing to happen.

But I wonder if the club isn't susceptible to punishment after not showing up to play the game.

On the other note it's a great break after the Lisbon game considering soon the 2nd leg is to be played.

 

[MagIX]

RIP

Osasuna agreed to postpone.

 

[HeadElastico]

Real shame, rip.

What do you mean? La Liga cancelled the game.

Yeah. That's true.

Anyways, RIP again.

They must have made an emergency request to LaLiga, which was accepted.

I'm not going to dig, but I assume there is something in the LaLiga statutes to allow this.

Just as games can be suspended for weather, racism or crowd disturbances, etc.

 

[FC B]

Osasuna agreed to postpone.

So if two clubs agree to postpone any game that is fine with La Liga then?

It was in this case. Massive PR disaster for them if they had forced us to play in these conditions.

It's sudden death. There will likely be statutes covering such situations.

Better be so. A point punishment for example would be terrible think to happen.
