Thank you and well said, they have all shot their mouth in the wake of the referee's favour to RM , if it were Barca they would have opened their mouths like " Moon Dogs".A true fan sticks to his/her club no matter what; if it has to be said, Barca held the whole of Europe under seige for almost 4 years , and the only club to compel teams to adopt an "idiotic" formation call park the bus, great work!! great club, for Madrid enjoy your spoils while it lasts.

ogazi007: Dont just rule us out just yet,i have watch this Barca side well enough to know what exactly we are capable of doing.the players are just a bit tied and i am positive we can pick up ourselves against AC-millan.we might not go through to the quarter final but we should atleast display once again that we are Barca.Barca fans should not be angry over what the haters are saying,we have set such a high standard for ourselves in recent years that most people tends to over exaggerate our misfortune and forget the fact that we were piss poor after 05/06 before Pep took over.We are still the best.

I dont.want them to ever win cause if they eventually win this year's UCL, the world best player award would definitely go to him, and thats something I dont even want. Ever! At least not until Messi gets his 5th and 6th if possible...

honeric01:

I watch football for the entertainment, i don;t have extra space for hating/keeping malice.

AjanleKoko:

Lucky you. I'm a socio, so I have to pay for the privilege. Can't just decide that I like Madrid tomorrow

In other news, the RFEF have 'knacked' Victor Valdes a 4-match akpako. He will only play in the UCL game against Milan.
In theory that's four clean sheets

AjanleKoko:

Barca's controversies have been more embarassing than what happened last night. I particularly found Van Persie's red card in 2011 the most ridiculous since I started following football.

ddippset: van persie kicked the ball away and got only a second yellow which the ref deemed to be time wasting. and how this is so embarassing to you, it beats my imagination! and then you said 'barca's controversies' pls name 2 or 3 for us!!! for each one you name, i give you one which was called against us.

Johnpaul88: Barca is more than a club. They do what other club cannot do. They held on with the manager they appointed even when he left his duties for close to 3 months. They identified with him at his worst point of his life. They 'll rather lose all trophy for this season than lose the core values and traditions for which the club is known. They value this traditions more than any thing. If this is what you call arrogance, then i don't know if you have values you ever adhere to at all cost . I think the Barca boards ' handling of Tito's health issue have been examplary! Afterall, Tito did not choose cancer. They did similar thing with Abidal who has little chance of playing professional football again, yet they offered him another contract in his sick bed . He 's barely kicked a ball since then.
Barca does not abandon their employee at time of difficulty. By appointing a new coach, they would have done quite the opposite. Things would have perhaps been different, had Roura rejected to step in.

dayokanu:

What other club cannot do how?

Bayern saw their ex player Gerd Muller becoming depressed and an alcoholic, Took him rehabilitated him and gave him a job

Bayern saw their major rival Dortmund going into Bankruptcy they gave them a loan without collateral, Can Barca do that to real madrid?

When Sebastian Deisler called it quits with football in 2007, Bayern did not dissolve his contract rather they held it in abeyance till 2009 when it ran out.

Bayern has bailed out local rival 1860 Munich from the brink of insolvency at least twice.

Bayern has organized friendlies to help other rival clubs when they are in financial problems and even with clubs outside Germany

A-40:

Barca vs Milan (last season)
Chelsea vs Barca (Ovrebo incident)

ddippset: BARCA VERSUS MILAN? are you for real? a soft red card you might say but what about carlos puyol's red card against arsenal at the emirates? an equally soft one. dont listen to those who might tell you that uefa have never given barca a red card, cus alot of cats out there will tell you that! trust me dogg.

ddippset:
CHELSEA VERSUS BARCELONA - i keep telling people that the biggest decison, the major decision that night was the wrongful sending off of eric abidal in the 65th minute. that was the first wrong call made by ovrebo. playing 10 against 11 for 28 minutes triggered off those millions of penalty appeals. besides chelsea were still qualifying at 1-0. ovrebo never did them, ANDREAS INIESTA did. (abidal should never have been sent off, but the anti barca fans fail to see beyond their noses, they dont even remember that any barca player was sent off by the same ovrebo, neither do you A-40)

A-40:

A dubious red card and soft penalty to boot that was called on Nesta!! Who gives a penalty for two players shoving and jostling for the ball in the box 18? Even a chronic actor like Busquets was taken by suprise


Ogbeni gbenu soun! Abidal was the last man and hacked Anelka so he was rightly sent off! Assuming that was even a wrong decision does that justify at least 3 legit penalty calls in the game? They even had another one where Eto'o handled the ball after Iniesta's goal

ddippset: it's just logic except for those that want to be sentimental. that singular event of wrongfully sending off abidal triggered all of those penalty appeals. if a referee makes 1 million wrong calls in a game, the most significant wrong call has to be the first wrong call made-this is logic. ovrebo said afterwards that if given a chance he would have changed so many decisions he made in that match, and iam 100 % that sending off abidal would be one.

ddippset: Slow your roll a bit na.take it easy on him, a lil exaggeration is allowed sometimes in order to press home a point. he's only trying to stress the club's magnanimity with respect to tito's health issues.

I think i still have the report of carlos garnesse,a renowed analyst who happen to be mourinho's fan on the chelsea-barca game after mou's rant in the game of madrid-barca semi final in 2009.
Henry was completely pulled off by carvalho even when peter cesc was already sent d wrong way at camp nou.the ref waved play on and nobody ever

Abidal was wrongly sent off in the 65th min of play at the bridge-i still have the video clip.
Among all the penalty appeals from chelsea it was only that of pique that the ref got wrong and u will agree with me that its not all hand balls the refs see(millan goal against barca this season)
The sending off of abidal made the ref overlook pique's handball and barca played for almost 30 mins with a man down.
The refs are human and are bound to make errors which every team benefits from at one point or the other.madrid were awarded penalty last season even when it was clear that foul happened outside the box and madrid won the league. But it would have been hell had it been barca.
