EA Sports La Liga 2022/23

Bet Clos Gomez was in on it. He was so anti Madrid even the club complained about him

Tebas (La Liga President): "Is La Liga over? I am a Madridista. Real Madrid have already made league comebacks with 7-8 points behind, there are still a lot of La Liga games left. Imagine Madrid winning El Clasico, they would be very close."


He says he's a RM fan and madrid fans will claim otherwise anyway. Shameless.

Clos Gomez retired that very season, that final was his last game ever. They probably would have known early on anyway that he'd get this game out of courtesy as his farewell game

This investigation has been going on for a couple years already apparently and all they have is a bunch of nothingburgers. Banana republic

Most of the couple of years have been looking in the Bart… corruption. The referee investigation which began from under the table suspected money laundering just started a couple of month ago.

And although Tebas claims he is a Madridista (to be fair 90% of Spaniards claim to be either Madrid or Barca regardless of home town), but he makes as many stupid statements against RMad as he does to Barca. He likes to shoot off his mouth, most often with items that should be of no concern to him, rather than properly market la liga which he should be doing!

What derby? Do you have a video of that incident? Hernandez Hernandez is an awful referee overall

When we lost the league by 1 point

Meh. Win some lose some. I'm sure you got calls that you didn't deserve back then too.

That season? I doubt it. That wasn't the only call either. There were quite a few calls that went against us that season. I think it was that season Perez commented that Hernandez Hernandez had been called to the VAR monitor 17 times and only stood by his decision on one occasion. You don't have to guess against who that was.

It has only continued this season but I don't think it's impacted the standing like it did that season. Instead this season the referees are doing everything to hurt Vinicius by allowing players to commit murder against him and to gloat about it openly afterwards while he gets a yellow for every little infringement. I mean you only have to look at his yellow after the tussle with FDJ to know they have an agenda against him.

Enríquez Negreira (former vice-president of the Technical Committee of Referees): "Everything that has been said is wrong. I never paid a referee, Barça never did either." [el país] #fcblive

Negreira: "Barcelona considered that the team was harmed, and that other teams were favored. The club wanted to make sure that no decisions were made particularly against them, to guarantee that everything was neutral. All I did was give advice, my opinion."


Real Madrid is so corrupt that we have to pay to at least keep things somewhat equal. SHOCKER.

I like how no one here mentioned that Athletic fans actually showed real protest against Barcelona but sure, Madrid fans complain about corruption the most.

Because this whole thing really didn't affect Madrid, not really imo. It's the other clubs, they would have felt the majority of the pain. Madrid and Barcelona would get the majority of the wins regardless but a ref decision would affect the likes of Valencia (yuck), Athletic, Villareal, et al way more than Madrid or Barcelona.

Alas, totally enjoying the "doth protest much" vibe from Barcelona mixed with a lot of Whatabout-ism. Long may it continue.

Sort of like Khelaifi then. Wonder what happened to him????

Itturalde is taking revenge on our club because we showed the bias against us by referees on our official channels. The best they have is "they tried to take us into a separate room in a game they won 6-1 and wanted us to treat them like we treat Barca" wonder if Itturalde had that power back then to make sure all referees conformed to this request Btw that just shows how far back this goes. We have been hard done by since 2001.

Bro there was a season where you were 20 points behind barca. You were hard done by? Spare me that.. surely you cant be so gullible?

Negreira didnt even have that much power over refs as it turns out, and all he did was explain to barca why certain ref decisions were made, a consultative/advisory type of role at best.

Oh please, who is being gullible now. Negreira created a culture where anyone who whistled favourably towards Barca were being promoted and getting to referee in the big games whereas those that were neutral were being demoted. That culture has carried on until this season. The whole refereeing structured need to be restructured to weed out this culture. Mate, you were getting penalties when your players were kicking the ground without anyone around them

Iturralde (Former La Liga referee):  "What's being spread to the public is a big fallacy. Enríquez Negreira had no power nor control over the referees. None."

“The friendship that united Victoriano Sanchez Arminio, then president of the CTA, is what led him to be vice-president. Enriquez Negreira was the one who called you when you were promoted or relegated as a referee. But the appointments were direct from Victoriano Sanchez Arminio. Then they gave way to the draw model. Then it was a computer system. After the appointments came the Triumvirate: with one from the CTA— Victoriano, one from LaLiga— Lopez Nieto and one by consensus —Puentes Neira, during his tenure there were three models of designation: him as vice president, designation via computer draw and via Triumvirate.”


This is a dirty attack by the madrid media. Negreira didnt create anything because he had very little say. And stop acting like Barca got favorable decision and RM never, becaue it's pathetic

You could find heaps of evidence if there was enough time for that, and i mean HEAPS

BREAKING: Pedri didn’t feel good in the session today and it’s not certain anymore whether he can make it for El Clasico. @ffpolo #FCB

fml Pedri and dembele were supposed to be back for sunday and they're both ruled out

A win tomorrow would probably seal the deal, but without them it's not looking that optimistic

No the computer system was before Barca started their payments. The promotions/demotions were made by a committee that Negreira was a prominent part of. When he wasnt in the committee anymore the payments stopped. You don't have to be Einstein to work out why

That referee only got one more Barca game after that before being sent packing to Cyprus. You get it now don't you

He wasnt sent anywhere, he retired at 45 as all refs do from top flight football

That's not true. Lahoz is 46 years old and still reffing and there is a referee who will referee Almeria's game in a few minutes who is 47

Negreira drove all the referees who made mistakes against Barca or didn't referee in favour of them out of the top division. All that is remaining now is hardproof which is more difficult to get. But rest assured this is the Spanish calciopoli

.?? Being paid 7M for a consultive/advisory role with no power over refs!!

And why make payments under the table? And why was he so upset and threatened Barca when payments were stopped?

Lahoz is not like other referees is he. And by your logic he should've been demoted too long ago because he's atrocious. I think he prolonged his career as an exception to make the WC, that's what I've read
