And candidate of Omella and Cobo.
With Cobo it is easy to understand, because in this bland character he would have no rival for his longed-for presidency of the Episcopal Conference. He had given that up for lost with Saiz Meneses or Benavent in Barcelona. Planellas is also delighted, since the Cistercian in Barcelona would not overshadow him in his Tarragonese mediocrity. I think it is not possible for Barcelona to be delayed any longer, so it is likely that in October we will have clarity.
And how would Barcelona be served with Vilà? I think poorly. The diocese would need something more and he something quite less. It would not be an inspiring appointment.
And how humble: a wooden pectoral cross. Lecturing the vast majority of his brothers who, like disgusting capitalists, dare to wear them in metal or at most in silver. Despite their minimal cost.
