  3. I don't know how closely you've been following Barça in the last year or so mate. But till now we've had one official attempt foiled by not reading the club constitutional laws to censure the current president and board. Now in recent days there's been Víctor Font who is building a big support in the attempt to censure again and this time not make the same mistake as the previous group. What I'm saying is that the only hooe is to get this present board out as soon as possible. The way they win over sentiments is to buy big names and relax the uproar in very particular moments. Barcelona isn't Real Madrid and never will be. They (Barça) can only succeed by doing things in their traditional manner because chaos brings the club traditionally down to its knees and there's been four famous depressions throughout the club's history where they suffered a lot. Barcelona can't live like Real Madrid even if they match their earnings year upon year and Real Madrid cannot be and function like Barça. One basis it's history around its foundation which is its academy (Barcelona) while the other club have always been globetrotters. When Messi finishes? It will be the end of a dynasty. Curiously the most successful dynasty in the history of football including the Franco infused 60s era for Real. Nothing lasts forever but then again you don't get Lionel Messi's appearing out of nowhere everyday. I would say that unless the club can return to its traditions then they will indeed go through another depression. But hey! I wouldn't have it any other way to be honest. It's a genuine club and Inknow that sentence won't be understood by many. You have to study deep into the culture and the history of this sport within Spain to understand why I said that and how it can be a genuine sentiment. Barça fans have always held themselves as a superior football phenomenon in Spain which has always been the envy of those from the capital... Even with their riches and success. Imagine that! Imagine being second best (aside from contemporary history) and still be able to muster unequivocal envy. Cycles my friend! Cycles and football is just a sport. I've already started to teach the religion of true football to my son so as he doesn't suffer a bout of anything untoward.

  4. The main man behind the entire referendum peddles that shite, if you really believe that most of that vote wasn't swayed by an anti-immigration and anti-Muslim agenda then more fool you. The average voter wasn't thinking about the politics in Brussels, the average voter couldn't even give you a law that they wanted control back of. It was "we give the EU this, let's give it to the NHS" (which has been hilariously backpeddled), "Turkey will join the EU and flood Europe with Muslims and terrorists", "we don't have control over our borders" (we do). I know the remain campaign fearmongered also as I am still waiting for the end of civilisation as we know, but there was very little reasoning in that referendum and it was entirely down to playing on people's emotions regarding immigration, Islam and general pro-nationalist agendas. You've only got to go back to Farage getting the push for the referendum on the debate in which he falsely claimed that foreign AIDS sufferers were health tourists. That essentially summed the whole thing up.
