Match day theme rules
We don’t have many rules here, but there are a few things to keep in mind when joining our matchday threads:
Even if the ref is nasty or we lose the game, watch the swearing. It’s just unnecessary. Also, don’t discuss illegal streaming links. Those who do will be warned and those who post links will be banned immediately. Finally, be kind to each other. This is a community in Barcelona and we don’t need to insult each other.
Have fun with the game! Forever and ever, regardless of competition, VISCA EL BARÇA!
