La Liga suspends season!

The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has announced that all domestic football will be suspended from May 16 in an argument over government interference.
It centres around a law which was passed last week which forced the RFEF to sell television rights for La Liga collectively. Currently, all clubs negotiate rights individually which hugely favours Barcelona and Real Madrid financially.
"At the same time, and yet again, we reiterate the offer of dialogue to the Spanish government," the federation said on its website after a board meeting on Wednesday.

This looks like a threat. 11 days is some time to sort this out.

Agree...although if this does come to fruition this would actually help Real rest up for the second leg against Juventus. Real is actually in a title chase while Juventus wrapped Serie A up back in September

I have been trying to find out why they haven't released the exact times for the May 16th/May 17th weekend and now I have an answer. Sucks if I can't see a game while I am in Spain

You know La Liga hates you if they are willing to suspend the season just to prevent you going to a game.

I already bought tickets to Barca vs Athletico for the 17. This can't be real

The freeze doesn't start until the 16th....real will still have to play, and beat to win La Liga, Valencia, I think, this weekend.

Yes, there is a great chance (but it´s not certain).

What I don't believe is the Players association is backing this nonsense and of course everyone at the press conference was a Madrid or Barca player.
