It'd be no different to Monacco playing in the French league would it?

Can't see La Liga kicking one of their biggest teams out of the league!


If it went to a La Liga vote do you think the others would vote them in ?

Their monies are divided up very differently and i think Barca get massive shares of TV monies as the clubs negotiate their own TV rights i think which gives them a huge advantage over the rest of the league. The others might welcome the perennial front runners being booted out.

I have heard that Shaun Harvey has been in touch with them though about inviting them into the Checkatrade Trophy next season as a wildcard if La Liga do kick them out.

Clubs negotiate their own deals, therefore Barca and Real get the lion's share as they are the 2 most attractive prospects. Do you really think TV companies would be as interested in La Liga if you removed Barcelona from the equation? I doubt removing Barca would result in the lesser teams getting more money! I'd be more inclined to believe that the smaller clubs would prefer to get a piece of a more attractive Barcelona flavoured pie.

Other clubs also probably like the increased gate receipts too.

Wishful thinking methinks-about as wishful as Celtic ever being admissible to the prem. However, the genie is now firmly out of the bottle in Catalonia, the simmering resentment dating all the way back to  Franco's fascists in Madrid (with the help of Hitler's Nazis) bombing the republicans in the civil war of 1936-38. In more recent times, the prosperous Catalans have been subsidising the rest of Spain, including being forced to take on a 5 bn euro debt to assist the bailout of Spanish banks in the 2008 financial crisis. Basically, it seems, they have had enough and want to go their own (republican) way. It is difficult, in view of Rajoy's violent reaction to the plebiscite, to see how the Catalans can ever be put back in their place -or the republican genie being put back in its bottle.

The Welsh teams (also Newport, Colwyn Bay and Merthyr) are in the English league because there was no Welsh league at the time. They're always used as arguments for Rangers and Celtic joining the English leagues, but they're completely irrelevant.

The most ridiculous point about this was that the referendum vote might well have gone against independence in any case. All polls were neck and neck and there was a good chance that a no vote would have been returned.

Now, I'd imagine there aren't a great many Catalonians who would be against independence.

The French league is crap they'd be better off joining that. At least its got geographical proximity. We are nowhere near. On the other hand Catalans Dragons play in our Super league
