The public television station of Catalonia, TV3, improvised this Sunday mounted a debate on the alarming situation that has unleashed in the Barcelona Football Club after the blushing 2-8 that Bayern gave him in Lisbon last Friday. After what Joan Laporta, who is not yet officially a candidate, fell out of the call, the appointment was attended by a confirmed candidate, Víctor Font (leader of the Sí al Futur platform), and Emili Rousaud and Toni Freixa, who could also present a candidacy but have not yet officially announced it. “I am making a very strong team,” said Rousaud, who surprisingly asked to go easy when months before he accused the club's staff of “reaching into the box”
They all agreed on the absolute erosion of the form of governance of Bartomeu and called for his resignation and the immediate calling of elections, orderly manner. By order, Víctor Font demanded, as he had already done on twitter, the calling of elections: “Yes, we did it after the game. We are in favor of institutional stability. We have been working on a project for seven years, but we have hit rock bottom and there comes a time when institutional stability involves making choices. And I think that all Barcelona fans claim it with stability. The important thing is to make this transition. We saw the perfect storm coming which is already a reality today. It must be done correctly but the transition time can be limited. If we exhaust the mandate, we will lose not only this year but two. There are a lot of decisions like the main sponsor, to renew Messi … We have to try to make those decisions take those who enter
Freixa spoke of statutory matters: the two possible exits of Bartomeu. “In a Board of Directors of fourteen like the current one, if nine resign, there would be a management commission that could call elections. So the scenarios are, or it ends naturally (call for elections between March 15 and June 15) or enter the management commission. A resignation must be scheduled that allows the club to win a year and end at the end of the cycle. ” Emili Rousaud, who has been until recently on the Board of Directors, anticipated that “I don't think there will be a massive resignation. An orderly convocation will be sought. I would say that, for me, the essential point is that a direct way is programmed when the elections can be prepared. But knowing the Board, at most it will be planned how everything is organized for the electoral Assembly. If it were the Titanic, what you should do is not panic. It is not advisable to make very hot decisions. It has to be done in an orderly manner. There is a great clamor among the partners, but the way must be done in an orderly manner. “
