How Much Does It Cost To Engrave



If I were the president of Futbol Club Barcelona, \u200b\u200bis Sandro Rosell , members send a tape of the interview he had last Friday with Josep Cuni in TV 3. In that conversation , intelligent, bluntly, transparent, were very clear lines that showed the project's new president. Rosell is a president who is willing to do whatever it is, so to return the core values \u200b\u200bthat inspired Hans Gamper in its foundation: First, the Barça , then the rest. No else first and then as Barça unfortunately institutional level has been happening over the years.

This lack of ideology, this lack of transparency and austerity, is what led to the current president and several of its leaders again today to resign their positions. This new board, we say and bluntly, is not a board of "clappers." It is a directive that all dress the feet and have no other purpose and feeling that the Barça work well. Or rather well. But in every way: in the sporting arena, fundamental, but also in institutional field. Anyone can tell, neither with small mouth, or whispering , which are things that should not happen.

This policy presiding Sandro Rosell has a privilege that most of them has a spotless professional prestige and a position allowed economic moral authority and freedom that have likely benefited others. And, moreover, honesty testing of pump. This policy, you can make mistakes, sure that makes, but they do not get caught red-handed, because they have ideals and some references. For this directive, as an expert in a thousand battles, the reference is the founder and president five times, Hans Gamper . Do not want to deviate one iota from the line marked by the operator of the club and if they have to make great sacrifices, as he did, also be made. What is more, already have begun to do in the few days leading up to their new positions. And if the guide moral Gamper, the spirit of the Barcelona Olympic Games 92 (austerity / imagination / transparency) are the other added values \u200b\u200bto this new policy that has marked strongly the new president and backed by the full Board of Directors.

"The illusion is that this club membership will last for many years," said Rosell Cuní to that interview without waste. And the president is not willing to stretch the arm sleeve, I ask who you ask. Morning Star is the God that is for certain, in the current Barcelona slang, have name, but for us there to be higher in the club, that the body, ie Barça. From there, the Barça the best, the rest are natural beings, including the gifted. But no one / no one have to have reverential acts, however great and extraordinary services that triggered.

The Barça a hundred and ten years of life, and will above all, including myths and who may also end remained so.

A ROSELL not afraid pulse.

Within this policy of moral principles that purports to be the flag of the new board, essential to everything that is not morality, President Rosell wants to bring their goals to the fullest extent. Neither you nor shake shake pulse when taking decisions, which are unpopular. Input He trusts those who deserve the utmost confidence, but as long as nobody / nobody / nobody exceed its functions. Call it what it is called. Have the greatest influence in the country or not. Have all the press for or not. Rosell and his board have set only one way: report all / any / all the partners. And wait, with patience and without impatience, audits are underway. A priori, suspicious of anything ... but they already have sufficient evidence to disbelieve many things they have inherited. Input, too many tensions in the treasury. Too. To the extent that a club like Barcelona Football Club has not able to meet their financial obligations and labor the dates which have put off a donkey to the president and his co-counsel. They did not enter his head that many have been without receiving their fees on their due and that, however (to quote one known case) the former CEO, Joan go with Oliver intact settlement (more than eight hundred thousand euros) in the same instant to collect his belongings. That is: first he, then the flood. No wonder that when heard the case, the president saying: 'What's Oliver is immoral. "

And hence, automatically , Sandro Rosell in one of its inaugural meeting goatherd manifest with an air of "immorality, impunity, the waste has reached the end, while I am president. "

MARTIN HALL / JAVIER FAUS .

He has missed, and much, that Xavier Sala Martin , ex Economic Commission President of the club and former vice president, at a station with a reputation for laportiana justify even tried his friend Oliver : a) or Martin Hall has lost Oremus b) or Martin Board, after passing through the popularity of Barcelona and the influence of Laporta, has lost all common sense and all credibility . Because if justification on Oliver has no name, has at least hours before taking office the new president had a Pharaonic balance, which could only deceive the dumbest of the pen.

The reality is that Xavier Sala Martin , which continued through his articles in La Vanguardia before Barcelona management, and read with interest, I totally disappointed. But what's worse: he has defrauded thousands of Barca probably and many of his students when they saw the reality ("The Barça run out of money for payroll to players and employees) and the balance supermaquillado presented offering a surplus does not exist, it will have been shocked. "And a teacher like this is going to implement classes and lessons ....? What? How financial engineering ... ".

His American striking and reveal him as a character in need of ego and vanity, as has happened with the outgoing president, able to say where it was black white and vice versa. And all covered, because the ball entered that clearly for the amateur is most important.

The antithesis of the Chamber is Martin Javier Faus i Santasusana , Vice current economic climate. Someone far from any role, an economist sensible, pragmatic and realistic / unrealistic. I said one day after a debate at the College of Engineering on the economics of Barça and also participated Ferran Soriano, I was struck by the wisdom and the explanatory power of Faus had completely overshadowed today Spanair president.

Javier Faus is one of those characters that look like they are but are not capitalized when the floor. It is a compelling person, who knows what goes in hand, a man of today, nothing utopian. Numbers that one would call one and two, two. Ie one of those economists who do not sell smoke, as unfortunately has happened in recent years in Barça on the basis of what has been seen very probably will, after authoring.

Changing Room Faus by Martin is to change reality for the American dream. The reason for the change of ornate fantasy.

bad thing for Faus is that you will come to live in the new Barça Rosell of an era of squaring realities, pressing / tightening their belts for the club go forward. Of course with the invaluable help of the entire board, joint president and an executive arm as Antoni Rossich that in the few days that he is in charge of Director General has already saved more money than several years of management Oliver. Input, all unnecessary expenses are being exterminated. A Rossich not matter who originates them, whoever they are, scissors cuts the primary weapon is his job. And as with all / any / all support the president, Rossich one hand and Javier Faus other, make a Barça unrecognizable over the past years. Corruption, petty corruption, the whims and the etceteras to borrow the club's numbers have been finished. And over the Rosell president wants to be in addition to president, partner and ordinary citizen, and has given orders that he does not want bodyguards and luxury cars to increase the costs of the club. "I think the president of Barça not have to use bodyguards nor the club has because Israelis have agencies ... Obviously the Barça is and will always be more than a club, but its president no longer a partner and a citizen "

TELEVISION RIGHTS AND BARÇA TV.

I said that president Sandro Rosell pulse is not afraid when making the decision that is, provided that decision is beneficial for the club. A Rosell only concerned about the club and its partners, which is accountable and has very clear that this was his campaign promise and above all meet.

Among the many fronts that are open, is the subject of television. It felt bad / very bad that on the eve of electing a new chairman, president Laporta and producer Mediapro sign a renewal lease (or extension). Believes that this act should not be done out of respect to members who were on their way to the polls. said so publicly and so has been sent to responsible for the production today for today (do not know if tomorrow) monopolizes all English football.

Sandro Rosell told partners Barca, very particularly those living away from Barcelona and rocks in general, he planned to do all that was in his hand for time-shifting television. That football, and specifically the Barça, is a family party and entitled to attend camp for families of all ages, children and those living apart of the city. And he would fight to change those schedules.

Rosell

known not to have it easy. Mediapro that has the rights and asserting their interests. But Rosell would appeal to the "call barcelonismo its top executives and owners ( Roures and Taxt Benet, among others ....) To like Barca , understand the sensitivity and Barca rights . No evidence that, despite his - interested? - barcelonismo are for the work, but Sandro Rosell , aided by one of the new officers and TV legal expert, Manel Arroyo do everything possible and impossible because the football schedule, at least in the Camp Nou and unless some logical exceptions, returns to its usual time. "I belong to a generation that lived without television Barca and Barca no longer exists. The Barça not what you pay television would certainly serious difficulties, but as has surpassed surpass all along its history, "said more than one occasion, President Rosell.

Moreover, also the new leader of the Barça between the eyes is the huge costs and little influence Barça TV originates at the moment. And it is willing to give a boost to its existence. Sandro Rosell and Manel Arroyo know that right now the only one who takes advantage of the television channel is not the Barça but its operator. And they also want to address this issue. Think that the resources cost a lot / too much money and power canal expansion is not consistent with the economic effort and the aim of the club, hence that this issue also comes into the discussion and debate future, if not immediately.

What happened to Pep ?

This is the question this past week was Miguel Rico on its website "to counter" in El Mundo Deportivo. He said rightly that Rosell Guardiola had said signed for two seasons with an option one more. And that is: something had to happen for that goal is not met. Is it wrong Rosell ... or was wrong in something, Guardiola ? Or both are wrong? It was probably the last thing most of the above. But even I am willing to accept that the error of the game, which is much agree.

Nobody discusses indisputable knowledge of Guardiola, not before as a player or now as a coach. Here are the numbers. But being undisputed / undisputed figure Guardiola, we must also say that nobody is indisputable (however good) and even less untouchable. And Guardiola already seemed extraordinary as a player and now as a coach, you must accept that the only reason his is universal. As anyone.

said Jose Luis Carazo in the newspaper "Sport " that "I did not like that rumors are emerging that portray Pep Guardiola of stingy" to add : "If Guardiola had really thought the money would have been very easy because you only have enough to sign the blank check it offered the ex president Joan Laporta weeks before he left the club or super-rich accept offers that came from English and Italian clubs (14 million euros) "

do not go into the reasons why the contract provided for two plus one , has been reduced to one. There must be some. And this "will" not only the "selling" part. Something has happened. And the speculation in one direction are not valid. Needed to know both sides, and the two sides do not talk. They speak their circles, their relatives, and the versions do not match.

I have great respect for Guardiola , I said and I repeat it, but I do not agree that the Barça is unique and exclusively coach. "Yo, that was all, was not one without the Barça " he once said Pep Samitier who had the privilege of knowing when it was just a club advisor. Samitier certainly was everything. Outstanding Player. The greatest of his era. It was a great coach and, above all, and until proven otherwise, the best technical secretary who had the club in his long life. He made it possible for players like Henry Fernández, Florencio , Marcos Aurelio , Kubala, Villaverde, Eulogio Martínez , Evaristo, Kocsis and Di Stefano himself were, among others, players Barça. A monster. The athlete also joined Barça culture and through his friendship with the great intellectual who has known Catalonia and Spain. Nevertheless, if everything inside and outside the country, insisted on that phrase given above: "Without the club, I was nobody."

What I mean by bringing the example of the legendary Pep Samitier? Well, I mean that Guardiola, being everything, it's good to place it in context. How great / great it is ... but not so much what I heard one of these nights on the agenda of Joan Maria Pou on RAC 1: "Guardiola is the person most important of this club, "exclaimed Ernest Folch. Is not the first time I've heard, and probably will hear it. I also remember that Jaume Roures, the owner of the TV rights to Barcelona, \u200b\u200bextended by the dubious generosity of Laporta said before the election that "Guardiola will be a great president."

They seem very well all the praise songs to the figure of the coach. It is worthy of them, but everything has a limit. I have the feeling, probably the wrong sense, that is a part of the media is only by his eyes. It is logical ... but it is also dangerous. And even more dangerous than drink from only one source of information / intoxication. It would be nice, in the case of renewal, to know all / all the details. And your opinion. But what is debatable is that still true and real than Santpedor has been (is) the best coach of Barça in many years, right when it says it is the most important person in the club. The most important person is the partner, then partner, the president who have chosen something most of them.

praise Pretender one to take anything away from the expense of others is not fair, how unfair it is to hear comments / poisoning of an interested party.

Here there is only one reality: like it or not, including actors, Rosell and institutionally Guardiola will have to cohabit for a year. Hopefully that cohabitation is as happy as possible, for the good of Barca as Samitier said "no he would not be anyone."
