CORRUPT MAFIA! Athletic Bilbao fans THREW FAKE NOTES on the pitch during their defeat to Barcelona

March 13, 2023

Athletic Bilbao fans mocked Barcelona during their game last night at the San Mames, trying to send a message against corruption. The fans threw fake money on to the pitch to mock the La Liga leaders amidst the growing referee scandal surrounding Barcelona.

The fake money had the Barcelona logo printed on them along with “Mafia” written in large capitals with a dollar sign next to it.

Reacting to the incident, Xavi said that he respects the crowd at San Mames, as they “have always treated me well”. But he also added that the evening’s atmosphere of “hostility”, “surprises me and saddens me” as “judging prematurely is not good for society”.

Barcelona are accused of allegedly paying over $7.8 million to the Former Vice President of the Referees Committee Jose Maria Enriquez Negreira from 2001 to 2018. However, the club denied any wrongdoing and insist that any payments made were for above board consultation work.
