Real Madrid are dumbfounded by the tears of De Burgos in the press conference. They have demanded a change of referee for the cup final because they believe that the referee appointed are not neutral. (www.cope.es)

Had to compress the title due to lemmy's 200 char limit

Context: Copa del Rey referee De Burgos in tears after new Real Madrid TV video: "When a child goes to school and is told that his father is a thief, that's really fucked up".

Real Madrid have been poisoning the well for years at this point and it's becoming really dangerous. This talk of robbery by supposedly crooked referees reminds me of a certain group of people and their lies that elections are stolen. There should honestly be consequences for Real Madrid for their aggressive rhetoric aimed at the officials that goes beyond a slap on the wrist.

Yeah, it's crazy that no one has done anything about it yet, but most of the top brass are likely Madridistas so they might just ignore it until something goes really wrong.

Most of their *online* fans seems completely fine with it too, somehow the most successful club in the world is also the most victimised one 🙄

Real Madrid should not speak at all!! You want to be at the top of the table, but you complain about refs. If you are that good, you wouldn't complain about refs.
