Superb article!! really good research and professional. FC Porto continues to be successful by selling their assets and still winning trophies, e.g. UEFA Europe League 2011.

The rest is a witch hunt and a case of conspiracy by the Lisbon teams particularly the 5lbenfica. It so happens that the fans of other teams make a fuss by means of a “cocked up” conspiracy.

I’m just stating the obvious here, but the constant changes are a consequence of the instability Benfica has suffered from lately.

Guess why?

Not just bad management I can tell you…

Are you kidding me?

Do you think that I haven’t my eyes wide open, to see the amount of errors of referees favouring benfica in Portuguese league games?

For more than 30 years that I see football, and in every season I see Porto being benefited, being robbed, the same way that happens with Benfica and with Sporting. It’s always the same. The big three are benefited and robbed. That’s football.

The amount of excuses and justifications you guys use is incredible. You guys never look to the important stuff.

What do you think about 17 coaches on 15 seasons? Thus this ring any bell? Probably not. To any one that looks at the game in a critic and analytic way this is a stat that shows a lot of the errors committed by benfica, and most of their insuccess, but not for you guys, because you guys have found the perfect excuse (in your head) to justify 25 years of total domination from Porto.

Yes, I already admitted I was wrong about the refusal of the recordings. They were accepted despite the numerous attempts from Porto’s lawyers to make them unusable.
But you, as other Porto fans, should really believe that JP ain’t a referee, or that fruit really is fruit. And chocolate too. Your president really enjoyed discussing cuisine with others, especially those with inluence on referees.

Right?

You guys continue to hide behind the near unexistent presence of impossible-to-deny evidence to justify the fact that your club is sustained by these and many other maneuvers…

Facts???
You talk about the phone calls an important peice of evidence according to you. Let me inform you of a FACT:

- The phone calls were acepted by portuguese courts.
What you say is a LIE. They were acepted, period.

It would be better for you to inform yourself a little bit better than you are, probably because all de data that you have is from the benfica club newspaper.

You mean the same courts of law that considered the recorded phone calls “unconstitutional” and “not valid”?

As for the CL thing, I know, you Porto fans almost pissed your pants when UEFA announced you were out… Benfica and Guimaraes did the obvious, and tried to seize the opportunity… Your club would do the same for sure. And you have to thank our slow and bureaucratic justice for that, because TAS dismissed the case on the grounds of the decision not being final at the time…

And I don’t see what you’re saing about gossip… What I’ve said so far is based solely on facts.

They’re just too many to dismiss…
