Four Barça matches, four referees who live in Madrid

Four Barça matches, four referees who live in Madrid

What Jaime Latre did at Camp Nou was almost a record. In just a few minutes he denied Barcelona two clear penalties against Malaga, in the league match on Saturday night. Not to mention the other controversial calls he made during the game.

It's more of the same. Referees always seem to wrongly hurt Barcelona. And Barcelona supporters are getting tired of this story. And suspicions are starting to appear. 

For example, taking into account that Barcelona represents Catalunya and the current political situation, is it logical that of the first four official games of the season, three referees are residents of Madrid?

The Spanish Super Cup first leg, in Bilbao, saw Gonzalez Gonzalez referee, from Casillian-Leon, but he was the exception. 

After that Velasco Carballo took charge of the second leg, Del Cerro Grande the clash with Athletic in La Liga and now Jaime Latre. 

The case of Latre is curious. Officially he comes from Aragon, but he's a military man who is a lieutenant in the Spanish army, in Madrid, as a telecommunications engineer. 

Coincidences? Maybe. But ofr Barcelona fans all these coincidences are starting to arouse suspicion.
