Another lever unlocked πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I’ve been looking for a new gaming chair recently…

Lever activated

Laporta masterclass

€3300 for a camp nou lawn chair?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

at this rate Laporta is gonna ask the players to open up their own onlyfans accounts to cover their wages

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We are massive. Surely we can sell some of Messi's or Laporta's old shirts as well. Maybe the sprinklers too.

Anyone else hate seeing Spotify in front of Camp Nou?

Not as bad as "Ligue 1 Uber Eats"

They should give them to season ticket holders.

Barcelona loves a side hustle

Selling old seats of a stadium is nothing new, this has happened for decades as teams move to new venues or have complete renovations.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll accept all the jokes man, this team is a meme

The idea is actually cool but the prizes are a bit ridiculous

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For a regular chair, sure, but this is unique memorabilia. I think it’s pretty cool that they have a variety of styles available. I’d probably grab one if I were a BarΓ§a fan.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah, it might be cool but, for the majority of people, it'd become an inconvenience.

Do people here not know that other clubs have done it before? Especially funny when it's fans of those clubs who make fun of this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I mean they sure haven't done this before.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

People are gonna call this tin pot obviously, but what the hell, better getting money from silly memorabilia than slave labor, war profiteering and the like.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It isn’t that unusual for teams moving or renovating a stadium to sell their old seats. York City did it a few years ago and the very old wooden seats from the main stand look great. I know a few people who got themselves one or two

Next time they returf, perhaps consider selling individuals blades of grass?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's quitee cool though, imagine you had a season ticket for a few years, it would be fun to have your own seat.

I read a story about a smaller club selling their seats, and a pair that met eachother at the game and married years later bought the specific seats that they met on, so it can have a lot of value.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

FYI we did this too.

Memorabilia for fans, funds something else for the club and 80k+ plastic chairs don’t end up in a landfill somewhere. Silly not to really.

Arsenal did this with seats from Highbury, my dad bought two

How did football stadiums go from having names like got castles to being named after airlines

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aren't these seats relatively new? The name change is pretty recent.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I have an old seat from the Dell (Southampton’s old stadium) that my dad purchased when it was demolished. Not strange at all imo and honestly pretty cool piece of memorabilia

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The new lever

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's much, but it's honest work

EVERYTHING MUST GO! πŸ˜€

Ah because Spotify Barcelona was their prime

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Eh, it's nothing out of the normal when doing reconstruction. Real Madrid are selling the old seats from the Bernabeu.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

First the turf, not the seats. Door handles will be next, maybe some of the urinals?? Can anyone say desperate for money? Need some dough to bribe more officials :-)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They told all the season ticket holders that we’d be able to buy our seats for a symbolic price (20-30 dollars) since some of these seats have been in the same family since 1957. Really annoying that they’re just making a quick buck

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I love making fun of Barca just as much as the next guy but this is pretty normal when a club builds a new stadium. Real Madrid is doing the same thing with their old seats

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Fan owned clubs living pay cheque to pay cheque vibes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They were already doing that

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's one way to self-fund the Super Friends League

When moving house, my mum decided to get rid of a box of stuff that was all sentimental to me. This included my old seat from White Hart Lane which I took home from the final game at the Lane

I shit on Barca a lot as a Madrid fan. But I would do naughty unspeakable things for a chair from the old Bernabeu stadium.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

you can buy it... Real Madrid is selling since month:

I was thinking these were like those WWE chairs for ringside at PPVs/Special Events

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Barcelona selling their soul what else is new.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Barcelona doing everything they can to make extra cash
