FCF to be discussed in Congress

of Catalan Parliament eSports Committee This Tuesday, he focused his entire session on: Catalan Football Federation (FCF) And also in the allegations of fraud and corruption surrounding the last presidential election that gave victory to Soteras Vigo. A look characterized by serious accusations, organized accusations and tension. On the other hand, the secretary general Oriol Camacho President of the Sports Transparency and Democracy Association; Miguel Galan. On the other hand, the general manager Jose Miguel Cal; Deputy Secretary of FCF; Sergi Garrido;And finally the president appears SoterasHowever, doubts about his presence prompted him to appear in court, so he virtually always handed over his witnesses to two associates.

General Secretary of FCF, Oriol CamachoCurrently on vacation, he said his presence was in response to questions “out of conscience and moral and legal obligation” and reminded him of the scenario of the electoral process. He cited falsification of notarized documents, improper use of federation documents, pressure on candidates to abandon their opposition in exchange for positions, manipulation of election commissions, tables controlled by management officials, possible payments with federation money, salary bonuses for the workers involved, and retaliation against up to 88 clubs, organizations and employees who claim their signatures were forged. Camacho said from his point of view: “The will of the voters was largely distorted.” And he added:The mastermind behind this conspiracy was General Director Jose Miguel Cal, under orders from President Sotelas. ” Camacho asserted that “what is known is the tip of the iceberg, and it has a much larger dimension than what is known because there is still much to know.” Camacho emphasized that there was “no assumption of guilt, no apology, and no permanent victimization” on the part of the federation’s leadership, and said he would like to recall the mass layoffs of federation employees. “These people have been subject to retaliation and deserve a systemic apology from the FCF and social recognition of their treatment.”

Garan denounces conspiracy

Next, Miguel GalanThe president of the Association for Transparency and Democracy in Sport, who is also a private prosecutor, stepped up his tone and said: “I’m here to talk about the FCF and its corruption.” He attacked the Generalitat for allowing this to happen, saying: “I have come to condemn the corruption of Calle and Soteras, who are accused of falsifying documents.The most serious thing is that the Catalan government, led by the minister, is turning a blind eye and is complicit in maintaining this situation.”

“The councilors have trampled on the internal democracy of the FCF. What the Generalitat has done is not a technical mistake, but an organizational coup against the will of the clubs and the councilors. Rather than respecting internal democracy, they have decided to protect this board, which is accused of corruption,” he said, noting that 441 clubs requested a meeting and the Esports Authority ruled out holding one if the FCF did not.

He then announced that he would take legal action. “We intend to challenge the resolution of the administrative case for very precautionary measures and also plan to file a complaint against the minister for alleged administrative procrastination.” Berni Alvarez To the Secretary General of Sports, Abel Garciaand to the director, Carme Bastidabecause we believe that this resolution is unfair and arbitrary, since in the same place a member said that if Parliament was not convened by the FCF, it would be convened. However, all the government did was to reshape the agenda and eliminate any discussion of the possibility of early elections. “The government and its councilors have turned their backs on 441 clubs.”

And he explains what motivated this decision according to his criteria: “This government and this council want to protect the board, prepare the ground and field a candidate. This is a conspiracy between José Miguel Calge and Abel García to field the recently appointed vice president of the FCF. Antonio Escudero. Calle went around saying what Abel Garcia had to say. ”

Soteras, Cal and Garrido like each other

Soteras, Calle, and Garrido appeared on the next shift. His intervention focused on defending the operations carried out while proceeding cautiously with the overall election issue.

Possible political implications were raised in Congress, with CUP president Dani Garrido criticizing Sergi Garrido for speaking about other candidates in his speech, saying: “Remember that you are a worker and should be neutral and should not criticize other candidates.”

“There will be an election soon.”

One of the most repeated questions was why the club’s requested meetings were not called. Soteras responded briefly: “They were not summoned because they broke the law. They have the recourse of a censure motion, so they won’t make things worse.” And he declared, “Get ready, there’s an election coming soon.”
