Persib Bandung was chosen to be the world's best club? Yes, precisely through online voting provided by the website of The Top TENS. On that list, even above Persib FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, to Manchester United (MU), Chelsea, Bayern Munich and others.
At least, that is what can be seen in the thread titled "Best Football (Soccer) Clubs in the World", until Monday (5/8) afternoon. Precisely the top 10 list, under existing positions sequentially Persib Barcelona, Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea, followed by Bayern, Galatasaray, AC Milan, Liverpool, to Arsenal.
Cash, proponents of European clubs who are also voters believed the protest threw on the "results" of this. One of them, among others, can be seen from the comments in the section about Barcelona.
"I think Barcelona is one of the best clubs in the world. And I must say, this is the first time I heard the name of Persib Bandung," wrote the Barca supporters, of course, in English.
Similar expression, also seen written by one of the supporters of Real Madrid in the comments section of his favorite club.
"Real Madrid is the best club in the world. 6th order not fair. I've never even heard the name of Persib before," he said, citing the position of Madrid earlier in the list.
"Never heard the name of Persib Bandung, and come on, Barcelona have Messi, Villa, Xavi, Iniesta, Valdes, Sergio Busqets, Puyol, Pique, and yes, of course, be good if they had Casillas, but still, they are obviously a club best football in the world today! Come on! " wrote another Barcelona supporter.
Whatever it is, this list does seem deliberately created as a forum for Internet users voting, including in this case the fans of the football club. Own managers in the early part of this list already warned would be the existence of many parties who do not agree or protest about the results of the rating.
"Not agree with this list? Put option (vote) on a specific item that you think should be ranked higher, or if you log-in, add new items to choose someone else, or make your own version of this list," they wrote ,
Persib itself is not the only name from Indonesia were on the list. At the 15th position (until noon), for example, there is also the name of the country of football clubs, namely Persebaya Surabaya.
