Well it's not very becoming is it, especially if Barca has done it for them in the past.

This is what I thought as well... can any la liga fans confirm?Didn't Barca refuse to given them a guard of honour after winning the world club cup?
And you stand Real? Barça is a shit club but Real are in a league of their own.Meh, can’t stand Barcelona, so who cares?
Yes,Barsa refused to do it since they only do it if the club participates in the same competition(according to Bartomeu).This is what I thought as well... can any la liga fans confirm?
Why would they gave them a guard of honour for a competition they didnt take part? weak excuse imho. Beside Barca already gave them a guard of honour when Real won La Liga in 2006. it's pathetic from Ramos imho, just hope Zidane or Perez step in and tell the players to show bit respect to the champions.Didn't Barca refuse to given them a guard of honour after winning the world club cup?
Agreed.Bit of a nothing story if you ask me. I don't care either way.
It would be stupid to give a guard of honor for every club that wins something somewhere. Should Real give a guard of honor to Bayern cuz they won the Bundesliga? No, the same way Barca were right to not give it when Real won the World club cup. Stupid to do it for Sevilla for Europa league.Yes,Barsa refused to do it since they only do it if the club participates in the same competition(according to Bartomeu).
However they did to Sevilla after winning UEFA in 2006,and Valverde,training in Villarreal did the guard of honor to Barcelona after winning the club world cup,2010 I think,therefore Barcelona explanations sounded as an excuse.
It seems that not to do it is Zidane's personal decision,and the club or players didn't know before the press conference.
As I said in la liga thread I think they should do it
They kind of did participate in it though since you need to win the CL to qualify?Why would they gave them a guard of honour for a competition they didnt take part? weak excuse imho. Beside Barca already gave them a guard of honour when Real won La Liga in 2006. it's pathetic from Ramos imho, just hope Zidane or Perez step in and tell the players to show bit respect to the champions.
the issue is that the explanations did not sound convincing. This should be an act of respect, but when you have to beg the other club to show you respect, it loses much of its essence.It would be stupid to give a guard of honor for every club that wins something somewhere. Should Real give a guard of honor to Bayern cuz they won the Bundesliga? No, the same way Barca were right to not give it when Real won the World club cup.

Real should do it. I would ask my players to do it, so that they remember how awful it feels.
Why the feck do you need a guard of honour for the Club World Cup?Didn't Barca refuse to given them a guard of honour after winning the world club cup?
Valencia and Betis did before Barca refused over the last two years? They weren't exactly battling it out with Madrid in the tournament.Why the feck do you need a guard of honour for the Club World Cup?
It's a two game tournament and Barca did not participate in it.
I agree.Valencia and Betis did before Barca refused over the last two years? They weren't exactly battling it out with Madrid in the tournament.
Its a pathetic recent trend, these things should disappear along with managers handshakes but its a bit strange to be applying arbitrary rules of thumb for a nothing gesture.
Real > «Barca»And you stand Real? Barça is a shit club but Real are in a league of their own.
Well, it's not like Real Madrid have participated in the league this year eitherWhy the feck do you need a guard of honour for the Club World Cup?
It's a two game tournament and Barca did not participate in it.
Yeah.Honestly if we had to do one for Liverpool and the club refused I can't say I'd have a problem with that.
Chelsea no problem, Arsenal sure, even City fair enough. But Liverpool... nah, I'd rather be 'small time'.
