  It hurts and it makes me sad everytime I read an article of the shame that Calderon has put on this club. He has come out and told us, the fans that they are going after players that are eligible to plat in the Champions, and now one of the two signings are not. It’s telling that they did not know about it (UEFA ruling 17.17 and 17.18). Reading the club’s official statement in response to MARCA’s story was almost comical. No, It’s absolutely outrageous! “Oh yea, of course we knew about it. It’s just that we don’t think that’s how it should be, so we’re going to challenge it”. It was a huge joke to even think that UEFA would change their rules because we think they should.

  It’s embarrassing and laughable on so many levels. For goodness sakes, I even fucking knew new about it! The people who have been running this club are an absolute joke.
