From 1899 the FC Barcelona began to write the history of one of the biggest clubs of the world, with a list of players and presidents that well have remained along the years like authentic characters of the football, between them Lionel Messi, one of the biggest footballers of all time.
In the dispatches, the presidency has gone through the hands of 41 distinct people, beginning with Walter Wild, known also like Gualteri Wild. It commissioned to be the founder, player and first president of the team, although only it was to the control during two years until 1901, sucedido by Bartomeu Terradas i Brutau.
The one who more repeated in the charge was Joan Gamper i Haessig, with five mandates in the team (1908, 1910, 1917, 1921, 1924), although between all accumulated 9 years at most leader. The honour to having chaired more time to the club belongs him to Josep Lluís Núñez, that was 22 years from 1978 until the 2000.
Joan Laporta is the one who follows him, with 17 years and explaining, since it finish to win the presidential elections of the team and will be at the top of the club again. The victory of Laporta avoided that the partner number 42 went president, by what the list keeps in 41 being Joan the 39.
Only five of these presidents have been interim, Joaquim Peris of Vargas, Joan Eat Sarasols, Antoni Julià of Capmany, Raimon Carrasco i Azemar and Enric Reyna, in addition to all the stir caused by Josep María Bartomeu, that renounced in the middle of a motion of censorship that finished with Jordi Farré chairing a Managing Board.
Without forgetting to Joan Gaspart, the one who autodenomina like "the worst president of the history of the club" and that lived moments quite complicated in his mandate. Better luck for Núñez, that in addition to being the president with more time in the charge also was the one who brought the first Champions to the vitrinas culés, gone on down the big management of Laporta in his first mandate.
