Cor Blaugrana, the collective of Barca fans from various supporters' groups behind the action, say they have grown fed up with the Catalan club's top brass and argue that change is needed immediately. @moillorens @samuelmarsden #FCB 


Once the motion is officially filed, Cor Blaugrana will have 14 working days to gather the signatures of 15 percent of the club's members, which is just under 17,000 people. @moillorens @samuelmarsden #FCB 


If they achieve that, the vote of no confidence would then be put to the entire membership base in the form of a referendum. Two-thirds of a potential 154,000 voters would have to go against the board in the 2nd stage for elections to be held. @moillorens @samuelmarsden #FCB 


Cor Blaugrana acknowledge that in the current circumstances it will be difficult to pull the coup off, but a spokesman for the group said the state of the club has left them NO other option. @moillorens @samuelmarsden #FCB 




Regardless of the outcome of Cor Blaugrana's movement, an election will be held next summer and a new president will be appointed. Bartomeu, who has stressed he will not resign, will not be able to stand again. @moillorens @samuelmarsden #FCB 


This is the second time Bartomeu has had to deal with a vote of no confidence against him. In 2017, former presidential candidate Agusti Benedito tried to out him but failed to get the 16,570 signatures required to force a referendum. @moillorens @samuelmarsden #FCB 




Unlikely tbh, but let's see
