sticksy posted:Barça’s board has been scientifically proven to be Elite Next Level Spanish sports drama which is impressive in and of itself. That was actually true with Laporta, he had strong ties with independentism and used his position and the club to curry favor with it but in the end tried to launch his political career with a newly made party, which failed hard. The current board though? Not so much, it's a mixed bag in that regard, there's only a couple guys linked to independentism and institutionally the club has tried to be more ideologically neutral. However, they are all Catalan burgeoise to the core, rich bastards with an unending thirst for money and power disguised with a veneer of respectability. All the current drama is just the usual shitstorm that happens when you have economic mismanagement, institutional scandals and bad results for years. Generally speaking, Barça fans will forget most scandals and forgive the board for being greedy cunts if there are great results (aka winning the Champions league), but the current board has been too terrible for years. The most recent drama stems from the fact that Rousaud (and his cronies) was designated as the continuist candidate by the current president for the next club elections, however Rousaud has realized that being linked to the current president taints him by association in the eyes of the fans and he stands no chance at being elected as is, so that's why he has publicly and dramatically broken up with the board and started to throw wild accusations of corruption.

Despite it's deplorable author this article does a nice job covering some of the other areas too: https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2020/apr/11/carry-on-barcelona-the-comic-tale-of-tragedy-and-drama-that-keeps-on-giving The payoffs to social media accounts to blast their own players is some next level poo poo.

According to other people in that thread, 46 (!!!) of Koeman's goals were PKs, versus 11 for Ramos. Ramos is the primary penalty taker for Spain, but not for Madrid - it used to be Ronnie, and I'm sure it's Hazard or Benz now. Also, Hierro scored 51 as a defender - the others were from his time in midfield

Also, Hierro scored 51 as a defender - the others were from his time in midfield I was going to say that I thought Hierro played as a midfielder for several seasons. I do think Ramos is Madrid’s penalty taker now and he was in matches when Ron wasn’t on the pitch. Benz and Hazard are always injured so it could be coincidence
