Season highlights
  • Two players debuted with the team, and left their mark: Agustin Sancho and Emilio Sagi Liñán.
  • The Garchitorena scandal exploded when FC Barcelona included a foreign player Juan Garchitorena in their lineup for the Catalan football championship, where foreigners were not allowed to play. Team RCD Espanyol claimed Torena had U.S. citizenship[1] (although in all the confusion, it was later claimed he was Argentinian), since the Philippines was a territory of the United States at that time; but they only reported it after losing to Barcelona (3-0). A redo of all the matches including this player was ordered, but the club preferred to withdraw. Garchitorena ended up getting involved with cinema, moving to Hollywood and having various liaisons, including one with actress Myrna Loy.[2]
  • On 17 June 1917 club founder Joan Gamper regained the presidency of the club for the third time.

gollark: It's fine to go on about "you should have them do X", but the person who actually wants said new players just wants them to idle a bit.
gollark: This!
gollark: Maybe it's good to have said new players actually do a *useful thing*?
gollark: I mean, if you have your own gold farm, sure.
