Sports › The Law Could Be On Messi's Side by Excallibur(op): 5:41pm On Aug 30, 2020
The ongoing dispute between Josep Maria Bartomeu and Leo Messi rolls on and, although Barcelona maintain that the player would have to pay his release clause to leave the club, the law could be in the Argentine's favour.

The burofax sent by Messi to Barcelona claims that his contractual agreement with the club allows him to leave at zero cost, which is being denied by the Catalan club as well as LaLiga.

However, Juan Ramon Liebana, a professor of law at University of La Rioja (UNIR) and member of the Arbitration Court of La Rioja, believes Messi will win the case.

Barcelona allege that there was a June 10 deadline for Messi to exercise that right of termination but, as the Argentine did not do so, the club considers the player to have renewed until June 30, 2021, while the player's lawyers rely on the fact that COVID-19 delayed all competitions, leaving the termination period open.

"That was for a transfer and not for rescinding the contract," Liebana told EFE, regarding the June 10 deadline.

According to Liebana, if the contract specifically states that date, Barcelona would be in the right but, if not, "it would enter the realm of interpretation, where Leo Messi will win for various reasons," he insists.

"Leo Messi's lawyers recall that the last competition that the Blaugrana played in, the Champions League, ended on August 23, so they assure that they are within time to have exercised the unilateral termination period of the contract," he explains.

Liebana believes that the clause in Messi's contract does not explicitly state a particular date of expiration but rather "within a period of X days" which would play in the Argentine's favour.

Furthermore, Liebana indicated that, in such a situation, Article 1281 of the Spanish Civil Code should be applied, which establishes that "if the words of the contract appear to be contrary to the evident intention of the relevant parties, the intention of the one under contract prevails."

"If the account offered by Leo Messi's lawyers, in which they maintain that the intention of both parties was to give a certain margin from the end of the Champions League to decide [his future] is true, the Argentine is right on this matter," he stated.

It's a contract. Let him respect it. When he was collecting 1million it was sweet. And it is still sweet.
but There is a clause in the contract that allows him to go for free at the end of the season

I was merely replying a Messi fan who claimed that the club didn't help Messi by bringing in top players. Messi cannot babysit anyone but as a club legend and captain, there's so much he could have done for new players coming in, so the club can get the best out of them. He didn't do anything.
to begin with, things like what... make the guy just go abeg, season begins in two weeks, we need new signings and I doubt that any world class player will want to come to a club in crises

You're the one of the people in this thread that calls a spade a spade, and I appreciate that smiley

Neymar left because he was being "shadowed" by messi, Other players are not appreciated in Barcelona because messi is there, He always takes all, I mean all the glory.
Neym Ne has not made Balon d or podium since he left, he did that twice at barca, Iniesta won Eufa best the same year Messi scored 91 goals

The club hasn't done enough to help him? Like seriously? Tell me another club who has spent more money on players acquisition than Barcelona in the last five years. Big names have all arrived but since all attention is on Messi, they cannot adapt and Messi being captain of the club has done absolutely nothing to assist the players to adapt. Coutinho, Dembele and Grezimann are all big players before they joined but all have become ordinary player after joining. But we must blame the board for everything because everyone blames the board.
now you are blammin Messi for signings that flop,, like he should baby sit world class players to adapt to the club

Destiny delayed for a fucckking 33yr old, that's almost at the end of his playing career. What nonsense!

Maybe he thinks himself bigger than the club. All the embarrassing defeats we suffered, dude was part and parcel of that shameful team but he did nothing to change the situation. Everyone is quick to blame the board but major culprits who have consistently underperformed are being celebrated. Stop making it seem he shouldn't be part of those held responsible for the Barca slump. Infact, he's one of the people I hold responsible. If you think he's paid his due, then I'll say he should pay them again. Afterall he's on a massive contract, coasting home to millions of euros yearly. His services never came free of charge. Abandoning a club in times of crisis, one which you yourself was part of in making, is cowardly.

I want Barcelona to frustrate him so he knows no player, no matter who you are, is bigger than a club that's an institution. In few years, no one will talk about Messi as much as now but Barcelona will remain for a very long time.
spend time and energy to frustrate Messi at the expense of preparing for another season? Even if he stays, E will still pay him his salary (100m Euros) LoL do you honestly think that the socios will take the side of this disastrous board over Messi

Romance › Re: My Fiance's Ex Is Fabricating Lies Against Me by Excallibur(m): 10:29pm On Aug 18, 2020

Hello nairalanders, I need your opinions on this matter.

My boyfriend of 3 years who is now my fiancee (we are talking marriage already) is constantly talking to his ex girlfriend (who is now married).

They discuss all manner of things, ranging from how she misses him and wished she had waited for him.

Trouble started when he told her he was planning to settle down (I still wonder why he told her) ever since she's always coming up with pots of lies against me. She claims someone told her so many things about me.

She fabricating lies isn't my major concern because I know once something good is about to happen the devil comes in many ways than one to destroy it.

I've told my man all about my past life and everything in it, recently he accused me of withholding some information of my past. The ex girlfriend had a chat with and told him things I don't even know about.

Nairalanders this lady is married, why is she poke nosing into our affair?? If she loved him that much, why did she marry another man?? Why is my man giving her audiencehuh Is he still in love with herhuh I know she's obsessed about me. Her constant chats with him, makes him accuse me of things I've never done in my entire life.

I told him we should suspend the marriage until he's done with his investigation since he doesn't believe me cos he said if he finds out something I did in my past in the future and I didn't tell him it will be a problem.

tell her husband to warn his wife

How disjointed Barça really is.

Busquets must never play a game for Barça again, he should just leave honourably, I love him so much so let him just leave honourably before he tarnishes his image further.

Also let no one question the professionalism of Griezmann though.
this shi*t is hilarious

Wrong.. Clinton got 54% of female votes. This time around Trump is running as an incumbent and will be judged on the economy,which is in shambles right now.. And white men voted overwhelmingly for Trump in 2016 because racists didn't want a female President. Now Biden and Trump are both white men, so white male votes will be split ..
before Covid 19, the economy was at its best in 50 years
