    They should consider themselves lucky to still be in the BWIN Liga, instead of the Liga Vitalis

    Boavista went down for coercion of referees, Porto got 6 points deducted for corruption attempt
    The law in Portugal is wonderful

    Well first of all this is not a final decision. There are 2 apeals possible (and we will apeal of course)

    Second anyone who reads the benfiquistas in this board can see clearly how gutted and the amount of hate and envy we have to face around here everyday.

    And of course that is their version. The decision was taken after an ilegal decision with alegations but since they wanted to acused us anyway they did. Of course the fact that no witness is credible (an ex of our president that wrote a book with benfica conected people) and the phone calls (ilegal and so ambiguous it could mean anything) of the suposed talks and no change in refereeing in the refered 2 games in already decided league were taken as granted in irrelevant for their biased atitude.

    Then like they say, of course it was a low move by your directors. A lame and low move even considering your lame directors but then again i didn´t expect any better from them. It doesn´t matter what the effects on portuguese footbal such decision may do however false they might be, what matters for the bitter ones is that you can achieve out the field what you did not achieve in the field.

    Fourth. If you think we will sell all our stars you might as well rest waiting because we are not that desperate and we are not in a total sell out mode. It will affect the budget of course but it is not the end of Porto.

    Of course after 35 years of non stop european football this might (yes it is might so far so don´t start celebrating so soon porto haters) be a big blow for portistas but what can´t kill us makes us stronger.

    As for me i couldn´t care if we were in the 10th division, out of europe for centuries. being a porto fan is much more than a glory hunter atitude it is a state of mind and no matter how this will end up you can be sure we will always return stronger.

    Sempre portista Ale

    Protheus, get real

    Envy? Of what? A corruption charge on my club's name?
    A president that rather defend "is good name and morals" than that of the club he represents?

    So the phone calls tap inns are illegal (i'll amuse you for a bit), but does that change the conversations? Does it change the fact they existed? And that your club's lawyers never denied them?

    Does this mean, if I ask someone on the phone to go and bash someone's head in, the police listens to the call, and although instead of a good bashing, the other person only gets a slap, that I'm less guilty?

    And please, the president ex that wrote the book with Benfica's help,bla,bla,bla. I actualy took you for an intelligent guy

    I'm sure that even you don't believe on all the Cr@p a few individuals connected to your club invent. I presume you also believe that supposed file written by the PJ investigators that popped up a few months ago in the net....

    What did you achieve on the field if your club has just been charged with corruption, docked points, and accepted the punishment? Ahhhh....corrupt resuts

    Why don't you, a Porto supporter, instead of paraphrasing a person that took the great divide to no lows, ask yourself the following :

    1] Do I want a guy that drop my club's name on the mud, to continue to be my president?
    2] Why was my club docked points, and the board accepted this, without appealing against it, if they claim innocence?
    3] Why is not the board of directors of my club resigning, after such a shambles?
    4] Why is my President on trial for crimes of corruption, coercion and falsification of results?

    Who do you support, FCP, or PDC?. Because there is a diference
    but is now too late for the world to understand what it is

    Technically, the 4th place team in Portugal, in this case Benfica.
    My opinion is that Benfica should go to UEFA regardless Porto wins the appeal

    We where utterly $h!t this season, so UEFA is the place for us

    You say it is corruption, no call and no proves say that.

    The phone calls talk of no bashings just references to ambiguous things. Again you are making up things. The calls existed allright but as all lawyers know it is not what might happen or you want to happen but what you can prove or if the prove is usable in a court of law or if it credible or not-fact. We all know you guys are all blind to it because it suits you - fact. The law is not retroactive-fact.

    You may insult whatever you want i don´t give a damn what you think of me or not and i do not give you enough importance to feel offended.

    Net proves? Is this a joke? And you say i am not inteligent Laughing

    Alleged actions acusations, again you distort what it is said in there but hey i do not expect anything less from a biased benfiquista and porto-hater, you guys always shape things to what you like to belive.

    1) The actions taken in the process are options and taken by lawyers so if they have a course of actions i am sure they know more than i. I am no lawyer. i doubt you are one too.
    2) I am against not apealing then but again i am not the one to chose a course of action, the club and the club's board are. It is their job.
    3)What shambles?The 20 points we had more than the 2nd placed team last season?The top international team we have? Wishfull thinking from you doesn't make things happen. Keep dreaming.
    4)Again you keep repeating the same things and for the 10000th time in case you didn´t understood so far: Alleged acusations. Just because you guys are in ectasy at the prospect to excuse your failures doesn´t mean they are real.

    I am a Porto supporter and i think by my own head, and unlike you say i can be pragmatic and i do not think everything my president touches turn to gold i disagree in many things, like the apeal for instance but hey i disagree about a lot of things and agree with a lot too but i am not blind to see when the facts are shaped so that some results can be produced.

    The facts that you say are so clearly ilegal, unconsistent and unjustified proves but you use them as they were all true and proven and use it to shape your opinion no matter what, says pretty much about your feelings toward us, only blind hate. Sad really.

    You know you can keep repeating to yourself that you were robbed for 100 years so far, that you have the divine right to win everything no matter how unorganized and incompetent you have been for so many years and hey, as long as you guys keep thinking that you will never improve but then again that is your problem, might you keep thinking that forever.

    No, technically it's the 3rd place team which is Guimaraes. You've both moved up a place, getting you guys into the 3rd qualifying, but that doesn't mean you're the ones taking Porto's place... if it did then you'd be in the group stage.

    Makes no sense that 4th would take presidence over 3rd.

    Guimaraes has taken Porto's place but the media doesn't care about them as the big news is Benfica will get a chance at the Champions.

    Well, you are also incorrect Luso :0
    The team that takes Porto place is actualy Sporting, and the 2 others get moved in accordance

    Still I think that regardless of verdict Benfica should not go to the CL

    Pro, I feel like you've been slipping for some time now. I understand that most people don't want to admit their club cheats, but eventually you have to call it what it is.

    Walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, looks like a duck... it's a fucking duck.

    Quack, quack!

    As for your 'ambiguous' claim - if I call your wife/girlfriend (whichever the case) and tell her I wanna "boink" her (yes, I actually said 'boink') it could mean I wanna flick her on the nose... or it could just mean I intend to smack her ass and stick my manhood inside her from behind... which conclusion would you come to my friend?

    I'm guessing we wouldn't be shaking hands the next time we met.

    I guess; the entire league moves up a place as far as Europe goes.

    But we're already there, so we're not actually replacing them, but I we'll be the highest placed club in Europe out of Portugal... so in that case we'd be taking their place.

    I've read there was talk about Zenit getting Porto's place... now that would be harsh on Portugal.

    Although this whole situation does remind me of the way Belenenses stayed up the season before last...when they should've dropped.

    Dude, your club is in this position because your president screw up.
    Don't come calling me a hater, when you where the 1st one to start with the "teams that can not win on the pitch" and brought this subject yourself
    Hate is what you guys sing every game about FDP SLB.

    If you want to personalize your anger, fine, your choice. I maintain what I said. I tough, and still do, that you are clever than just going on the popular speech of blaming Benfica for everything .If you think that is an offense, fine.

    Fine by me. In the end of the day, It's Porto name that gets tainted, but hey, what do I know, I'm just a "hater".

    Since you like duck analogies:

    You can call a duck one thousand times a swan, guess what? IT IS STILL A DUCK.

    Sportinguistas and benfiquistas may say Porto is the boogies man from the shadows and the only reason he wins is because of corruption, guess what? We won because our structure is better, our players are better and we perform better. Domesticly and internationally.

    If our rivals like to hide their incompetence in the field with all kinds of dark excuses and cover their eys while repeating excuses to themselves a thousand times, hey by all means keep doing that. <Ale>

    Did he? Well i guess will see that in the courts or maybee the ones who try to punish him with no regards to elemental laws already confirmed by jurists are the ones that should start to be little worried.

    You are a porto hater, then again almost all portuguese here in this board hate porto guts and are selective regarding apreciations about us so you are no different from most and i can live with that pretty well. I have plenty of practise in Portugal, you know.

    I do not blame Benfica for everything, i blame supporters atitudes. One thing is the institution the other are the people i can split it pretty well. I have plenty of sportinguistas and benfiquistas friends and like in any other club there are haters and calms and racional ones. I know both set of them.

    I do not personalize the hate, don´t worry you are not the source of everything evil i say Laughing

    Then again when portuguese talk about the 3 big we never reach an agreement because people are too much biased and listen to what they want to hear.

    PS: Concearning the red light phrases:
    Like i said i am against the course of action of not apealing and you know pretty well they didn´t because we finished 20 point above th second and the punishment is irrelevant. Again not my opinion but it was the club's.
    He wasn´t even found responsable as the acts were deduzed not proved. They took as granted the prostitute book and act acording it. So why would i comment a description in book with no credibility?
    Well if not it sure sounded like you did.

    1) No kidding, I'm glade you agree Ale

    2) If only that were true. You're problem however my friend is that you fail to see that neither benfiquistas nor sportinguistas, for the most part, have been cutting their clubs any slack what-so-ever.

    You've obviously missed the criticism both boards have faced for the past few years regarding various issues.

    For what seems like the 1000 time Pro, Sporting has had many problems on and off the field, this is however irrelevant in regards to the issue at hand. What Sporting does or fails to do has no bearing on what Porto does behind the scenes. Your club's people have taken it upon them to get the job done away from the pitch and claiming that this is all a myth made up by other clubs doesn't make it any less true. It's just become the standard Porto answer. Porto is the victim... blabla...

    I know buddy, I know...
    Still, here's a snap shot for you:

    Porto since the 1980s 101: we 'fix' things so we win; we win; we're accused of cheating; we claim only losers accuse others of cheating (we do however accuse others of cheating whenever we do manage to lose); we claim other clubs use us as an excuse for their failures (of course we keep cheating, causing many of their 'failures' while covering up our own Twisted Evil); we claim ourselves to be the champions of the North and the victims of a southern conspirecy (despite what others may say this is true because we say it is); claim we've (finally) turned the club around since our accused president took over simply because we're now the best at everything and that any notions of cheating are pure fantasy and anyone who thinks otherwise must've been a Salazar sympathiser (cause all portistas know Salazar loved Benfica and helped them win for years! We'll be damned if they accuse us of doing the same now, even though we are....); we'll drink plenty of champagne after our victories and sample some of the local 'fruit' (aka - whores Cool ); we'll never foget to pay homage to the man who makes it all possible - our infamous president, may God protect him.

    Your repeating yourself again Luso. I haven´t made any excuses with referees or with any dark force. Never did and i think that is a weak excuse.You are the one always talking about the porto boogie man so you are describing yourself. I can not talk for other portistas of course but for me a team wins on the field and you can only use that ref excuse so far. For you it is all about that excuse and we never won anything in the field so no need to repeat that story over and over again.

    As i said before Benfica was better in the 60 70, Sporting in the 40 50 and Porto in the last 20 years or so. That is how i see it and i won´t go behaving like most supporters justifing failures with dark forces and even if some refs are pretty much biased one time or another to win with a certain consistency you need a team with quality. And of course you guys are pretty much selective when talking about refs, all in your favor and nothing against.

    Since Porto are somewhat sucessefull you guys repeat to yourself that excuses and to be honest you sound like a cracked cd by now. But if that talk makes you guys feel happier when you fail to win, by all means enjoy yourselves.

    Well if not it sure sounded like you did.

    Just one thing I don't understand about that. That lying slut only wrote the book so full of lies to get back at Pinto da Costa. A honest man whose, despite all the other evidence, only crime was to dump her.
    She wrote such lies about witnessing a conversation between PdC and the Major in the directors area of Boavista's stadium, which PdC denied took place, because he was never together there with the Major.
    Ooops, Record newspaper has a photo of them together with the young lady seated behind them.
    Yet still she's the lier, and PdC is just a honest man going about his work.

    Just to confirm, I don't hate Porto, hate is to strong an emotion, but I do dislike them, almost as much as I dislike Sporting. And obviously, I hope that both lose every domestic game they play.

    @int

    Again you are taking as granted the protitute book and all that is written there as the truth, all truth and nothing but the truth. It would be irrelevant in any court what was written in there considering the alleged witness but since this is a political case with strong lobbys at action the result of the Liga decision was the expected.

    Ah, Record, the defenders of justice and virtue, the holders of the holy grail, the newspaper that only talks about porto to say negative things about us no matter if they are truth or not. Not exactly the most impartial source heh? Oh you could add the lisbon biased tv stations, "Correio da Manhã" and "A Bola" to be all perfect in heaven. Laughing

    Well with all those negative feelings towards us i would call it hate but you should know better what you feel. As for me i dislike rivals because of the rivalry but i do not want any of the 2 big rivals to lose every game. A league without them wouldn´t be so fun and i enjoy to beat them and win stuff against them. You see, that is the difference between biased supporters and hate supporters.

    No, not taking for granted all that is written there as the truth. Just pointing out that one particular peice she wrote, and that PdC said was lies, was infact true.
    Maybe, in the fullness of time, someone will be able to prove some of the things she wrote, regarding the corruption, is lies, we shall have to wait and see.

    I didn't say that Record is the defenders of truth and justice. All I said was that Record published a photo to show that Ms Salgado was telling the truth, whereas PdC was caught in telling a lie. And that following on from this, I find it strange that people dismiss her book as pure fabrication, and continue with the thought that everything PdC says about this subject is the truth.
    Funny how so many people think that A Bola is Benfica biased, surely if they were they wouldn't give space to a c**t like Miguel Sousa Tavares to spew his hatred.

    But I have more negative feelings, as have all Lisbon based Benfiquistas, towards our biggest rivals, Sporting. And I don't hate them, so, why on earth would I hate a provincial team like Porto?

    We'll see. but considering the media we were already punished beyond any doubt even before everything started and that's a fact. Nothing to be surprised about for anyone who knows portuguese biased media.

    "A Bola" is the best sporting newspaper of our country IMO but at the same time it is beyond biased towards Benfica only a blind or a benfiquista can´t see that. Since you are benfiquista of course you can´t see it. Wink

    I don´t belive in everything PdC says but i do not belive everything our biased press/media says even less. They have their own agenda no matter if it is biased club opinion or ratings and readers oriented ones.

    The fact that Miguel da Sousa Tavares writes in it doesn´t change a single thing it is a just a little spice of "see how fair we are we even give one page out of 30+ or so to your opinions just ignore the rest of the paper biased opinion"

    As for Leonor Pinhal she is even more biased towards benfica than A Bola itself but hey, since it is a benfica biased point of view for you that opinion is credible and the MST one is hatred. Talk about selective and blind opinions. Rolling Eyes

    As for the rivalry i don´t care if you hate us more or less but to resort to the reginal/provincial whatever argument everytime benfiquistas lack arguments shows pretty well what you REALLY think. To be honest portistas don´t give a damn to that ridiculous argument for a long time unlike what benfiquistas think, and considering you have a name of a local/Freguesia while we have the name of our beloved city i find it pretty funny and amusing. Keep iluding youself while watching black and white victories in RTP memória.

    Buddy, it seems a pointless discussion. I've not taken all merit from your victories, you've had great teams - the greatest of late being the Uefa Cup winning side IMO - and you've obvisouly deserved many of the honors you've had... that doesn't clear up the fact that many of them are tainted.

    You either don't read my posts thoroughly or ignore what I actually write. I have given Porto credit for being the best run Portuguese side, I have given them credit for being very savy in the transfer market etc. I'm not questioning the quality of the establishment in terms of work and naturally that's brought on success. That is however not the only factor behind the rise of a club that had a mere 5 league championships when this current president took charge... and apparently I'm not the only one that thinks that way judging by your clubs current problems.

    I'm not the one in charge. What I think doesn't count for anything... I'm not the one with the power to doc you points or keep you from Europe; other people are the ones with this power and they've seen it fit to do so by their own inclination... and they didn't ask me my opinion.

    In any case this is a piontless figner-pointing session that won't get us any further. Porto's image has been tainted, Portugal's as well, but the club won't suffer much more than that... so in the end what does it really matter?

    Ale

    btw, just my opinion, but I think OJogo is the most imparcial sports paper in Portugal...

    ABola/Record practically only ever show Benfica/Sporting.. no matter what is going on in Portuguese sports.

    OJogo covers everything, and their articles are pretty level-headed... of course they have the odd pro-Porto article but that's to be expected.

    So, it's finally a personal battle between Benfica/Porto.

    It was to be expected I guess.

    Vieira's crazy demanding Madail to step down if Porto aren't punished... I guess he doesn't expect any baking from the FPF either if Benfica are every singled out.

    One thing is for sure, it's easy to make an example of a Portuguese side.

    The media always manage to make it a battle between Benfica and Porto, it sells more papers.
    Vieira's not only crazy for demanding Madail to step down, he's crazy for far more reasons than that.

    I disagree that it's easy to make an example of a Portuguese team, Porto are putting up a very good fight, and we still wait for the final decission, nothing is decided yet.

    Porto is fighting, but the question remains; would they have even considered this action if it wasn't a 'small' Portuguese club?

    I do not expect anything else than being out of it to be honest.
    We are being used as an example as we are an easy target(small country/small market) with plenty of visibility(one of the teams with more CL presences) and a c**t UEFA president that wants to boast nonsense as to prove he is a fair and though director. It doesn´t matter the legatilty of it all it doesn´t matter the proves, what matters is the scape goat.

    As for president of the "club" in question, it was the lamest, lowest move ever and it will make sure the hates between supporters next season will reach a new high. Don´t expect a pacific season in the next few years.
