    It's a good tour too IMHO

    COVID has affected everyone but no question revenue severely impacted by lack of tourism/fans, it generates quite a bit in Barcelona

    Should try it again, as you would expect it is totally modernised and all "fifa" style colours etc. But plenty new stuff and a good walking tour taking in parts of the stadium as well.

    I mind going around the 2005 era, then again around 2015 and it was a big difference in that time.

    Yeah, it wasn't in the greatest nick tbh, * seats are in the gods too, and I don't like heights.

    The museum was quite good. They had a big club shop right outside but it was rammed so didn't go in, just in case we missed our bus tour.

    The tour (my last time) now takes you out to pitch side as well, the seating we was allowed in was just above the dugouts as well. Though there was a * load of stairs up to the gods as well. So some added benefit. The seats down at pitch side where they let you now are certainly cleaner than the coke cup stained cheap seats they shoved you/us last time.

    Defo worth a second tour if you ever go back man.

    If A Madrid slip up. Tonight think they'll lose the league, their bottle has crashed by the looks of it.

    Thought they had it wrapped up only a few weeks ago but the wheels are coming right off.

    Bizarre penalty that, awarded to Huesca. You could see why the ref gave it initially, but VAR should’ve overruled it; it’s scenarios like that one that is precisely the reason why the system was implemented. Sheesh!

    4-1 finish, run in is gonna be really good to watch now.

    Barca must be quietly thinking they can take this title.

    Conveniently, VAR is not set up to challenge a referee's interpretation when there is perceived contact - bizarre if not intentionally obtuse setup to avoid challenging the decision of a referee. What is the point of VAR then?

    Never a penalty but calls like this cost Barca at least 8 pts this season alone

    Atletico bottling it again. Barca now just one behind if they win their game in hand, Real 3 behind. I'm shocked this Barca team are in with a chance of winning the league tbh

    Brilliant to see.

    Barcelona win tomorrow and it's 1 point behind with a trip to the camp nou for Atleti.

    Completely in Barcelona's control now.

    Kinda discounting the guys who have lead all season - Atletico Madrid.

    They’ve turned a slight corner to be fair to them plus they still have the best player that ever lived and he’s in imperious form just now.

    From 13 points behind it would be a huge turnaround and everything is now looking positive for them in terms of Messi staying - particularly if they could pull off a world class marquee signing.

    A lot of talk about Haaland but could they afford him?

    Personally think Raiola is leveraging others with that meeting, I honestly don’t see them being able to justify his price tag given their debts unless they can use a player as a make weight.

    * Saturday gets a bit more interesting than it normally would as well. Two massive wins that could kick Barcelona on even more. Real missing Ramos and a few others tae.
