An article in which the director of SPORT spoke of the position taken by Javier Tebas to expel Barcelona from his organization, LaLiga, when the country is going through a moment of high political tension.

Ernest Folch, director of SPORT, has responded in five tweets, the messages that Javier Tebas had written on the same social network. 

Javier Tebas has complained about the article by the director of SPORT with two tweets:

1. @ErnestFolch if you had interviewed me as you told me … you would not write like that … I am the same president as the Neymar-PSG-FCB case. https://t.co/ZLDWWGQY7k

- Javier Tebas Medrano (@Tebasjavier) October 11, 2017

…but obviously I’m still open to an interview if there are new discussion elements https://t.co/sqhylWxaAg

- Ernest Folch (@ErnestFolch) October 11, 2017

The response of Ernest Folch, director of SPORT, has been in five tweets:

Can you tell me exactly what I’m lying about? How do you mix politics and sport? In which the departure of Barça would be catastrophic for the League? https://t.co/iF7FS8FhXW

- Ernest Folch (@ErnestFolch) October 11, 2017

2. It seems irresponsible to me to put Barça’s expulsion from the League in the public debate, as you have done https://t.co/iF7FS8FhXW

- Ernest Folch (@ErnestFolch) October 11, 2017

3. And I am surprised that you do not value the positive (that Barça wants to continue playing the League) and instead amplify the negative https://t.co/iF7FS8FhXW

- Ernest Folch (@ErnestFolch) October 11, 2017

As for the interview, I understood that I was losing interest when from the next day you started a media tour to open the debate … https://t.co/sqhylWxaAg

The president of LaLiga, Javier Tebas, assured that he trusts that Barça will continue in the Spanish league, since he hopes that "does not occur" his departure, thereby awaiting "eliminate this rebellion that is taking place by https://worldbets.top/en/1xbet/ the Catalan authorities".

If the scenario were another, it would be a situation that you do not want to occur in any way and that would force you to react, in a context "bad for everyone". "We will move forward and work if the case arises", he pointed out in statements to the press in Santiago de Compostela, a city in which he opened the academic year with a conference at the Colegio Mayor La Estila, where he explained that high-level football is a business that arouses more interest than any other world event .

FC Barcelona declared itself, as an entity, in favor of the right to decide for all Catalans in the referendum that took place on October 1 in Catalonia. The club, as a result of the escalation of tension that the country is experiencing after the police repression and the demonstrations called during the ‘general strike’ this past Tuesday, has decided to adhere to the initiative promoted by the Barcelona Bar Association, which proposes the creation of a commission to act as a mediator in the political conflict between the central government and the Catalan government.

FC Barcelona offer to mediate in the current Catalan conflict

The commission bears the name of ‘Independent Commission for Dialogue, Mediation and Conciliation’ and was formed this Wednesday in Barcelona. It is made up of a total of ten organizations with no political profile that are willing to seek an agreed solution to the crisis between both governments, the state and Catalan.

The ten entities that are part of this initiative are the College of Economists, the University of Barcelona, ??the Autonomous University, the Pimec employers’ association, the Chamber of Commerce, the Association for the United Nations in Spain, the Council of Catalan Lawyers, the unions UGT and CC.OO. and the promoter of the Commission, the Barcelona Bar Association. Now Barcelona has also decided to join. 

Gerard Piqué is already in the concentration of the Spanish team in Las Rozas. The player has met with the rest of his teammates under the orders of Julen Lopetegui, but he has not forgotten much less about the serious events that occurred on Octobre 1.

Gerard Pique criticizes Spanish police for firing shots

“They have acted with professionalism and in a proportionate and proportionate manner,” wrote Pique, in quotation marks, the phrase used on Sunday by the vice president of the government, Soraya Sáenz de Santamaría.

Piqué retweeted several criticisms of the police action during the voting day and criticizing the members of the Government who described as "professional and proportionate" the performance of the State security forces.

Soraya speaks. The videos deny his argument. This start of the TV3 news program has been brilliant. pic.twitter.com/weI5FUgQw9

The president of the Professional Football League (LFP), Javier Tebas, has repeated ad nauseam that FC Barcelona would be excluded from the Santander League if it were the case that Catalunya became independent. To be more exact, the top leader of the football association expelled all Catalan clubs from the competition "If the rebellion continues and in the end it triumphs", as he himself recently declared to BeIN Sports.

What Javier Tebas is not saying about La Liga & Catalan independence

Thebes justified his judgment by saying that "I know that they – referring to Barcelona, ??Espanyol, Nàstic de Tarragona, Reus and Girona – would like to continue, but the Spanish legal system is what it is". A month before, he had already used the strategy of fear by ensuring that "I think the League of Catalonia would be a bit like the one in Holland and in terms of television rights, TV3 will not give Barcelona the same as it receives now. It will stop being a great club in Europe".

The president of the employer’s association has not stopped issuing proclamations along these lines for a long time. The problem is that Thebes doesn’t say it all. He is silent about many things when he talks about the consequences that Catalonia would have to become independent. In fact, LaLiga would be the main harmed by the exclusion of the Catalan clubs from the competition. The absence of Barcelona would force the LFP to rethink its entire economic structure.

One day after the Blaugrana team was removed from the competition, LaLiga would be forced to renegotiate one by one all the contracts it has signed for the transfer of television rights. It is clear that the Santander League would lose its appeal and all operators, both national and foreign, would have to rethink their relationship with audiences in mind.

audiences

You just have to review the official data from last season. Barcelona and Real Madrid accounted for 60 percent of the audiences internationally, while at the state level both clubs added 46 percent. The screen share of the two greats of Spanish football is light years away from the rest of the clubs. Both were distributed almost evenly 51 percent of the global audience, while the third on the list, Atlético de Madrid, stayed at 7%.

The data calls into question the economic viability of LaLiga without the presence of Barcelona. Last season, for example, First and Second Division clubs shared 1,387 million euros in television rights, which globally generated 1,565 million euros based on the agreements signed with Spanish operators (Movistar, BeIN Sports, Mediapro, Vodafone and Orange) and international. America, for example, generated 212 million euros in audiovisual rights, while Europe stayed at 167 million.

Cardoner to Thebes: "Shoe rack to your shoes"

Does anyone think that a championship without Barcelona will awaken the same interest globally? The classic has become a global phenomenon and it is clear that a league without the Barça team would become a military walk for Real Madrid. No operator would be willing to pay the current figures for a competition that would be significantly weakened. Without interest, there is no money. And Thebes knows it perfectly.

Carles Puyol, former FC Barcelona captain, posted a tweet on social media this Sunday that is sure to create controversy. If Gerard Piqué’s last tweet caused a great stir on social networks, Carles Puyol, former Barcelona captain and former international for the Spanish team, has sent a tweet coinciding with the voting day in Catalonia.

Carles Puyol Independence of Catalonia Referendum in Catalonia

Along the lines of Gerard Piqué, who asked Catalan society to demonstrate peacefully, Carles Puyol has written "Votars is democracy!"While in different voting points in Catalonia the police requisitioned the ballot boxes.

Voting is democracy!

- Carles Puyol (@ Carles5puyol) October 1, 2017

Another captain, on this occasion from the professional handball section of FC Barcelona, ??Víctor Tomás, has also claimed to be able to vote through social networks. Víctor Tomás, who in his day also manifested himself in the line of Gerard Piqué, has repeated this Sunday.

Finally, I still do not understand all those who do not understand that REFERÉNDUM = give a voice and vote to the Catalans, whatever their position.
