Will there be game of the season on day 2?

Here's a new chapter in the tragicomedy in which it has become La Liga de las Estrellas. But maybe we should say the League of TVs. The celebration of the day 17 is in the air. At present it is unknown if played and, at least until Thursday there will be a judicial decision in this regard. And here is the crux of the matter: the AFE has led to the Audiencia Nacional lack of understanding with the LFP. Let's recap the facts:

Within the collective agreement agreed in 2008 (valid until May 2011) by the Spanish Football Association and Football League, the Christmas holiday period of the first and second players are 11 days and should be extended until January 2 , day which can be summoned to train but not play an official match. Failing to signed, the LFP scheduled time on Sunday 17 between 2 and 3 on Monday, taking away a holiday to the players without consulting with anyone other than television, that really dominates the lobby Spanish football. To make matters worse, the rights holders seek (or sought) to four different times in one day: a party at 16:00 pm (Athletic-Deportivo), two at 18:00 (Sporting-Málaga and Barcelona-Levante ), one at 20:00 h (Sevilla-Osasuna) and another at 22:00 h (Valencia-Espanyol).

As revealed its president, Luis Rubiales, AFE AFE leads advising since last May that he intended to play on Jan. 2 went against the rights of workers (and that the Collective Agreement, 2008) . However, the AFE has been ignoring the issue and no players' union for the wishes of television. After meeting the principals of the AFE and the LFP did not reach any agreement, which the SFA has brought the matter to the ordinary courts. On Thursday, the Social Chamber of the High Court will decide whether to suspend provisionally the conclusion of Week 17. If so, it is likely that the judge would require the AFE to post a bond to cover possible damages that would occur if no matches are played, if it were the case that the main demand of the conflict end group agreeing with the employer.

The low estimate of the LFP to the time of preparing the schedule provides no margin for error if it can not play a day, say the case of extreme weather conditions ", which, finally, if the judge agrees with the union The LFP and the lobby television are not budge and the players decide to take the strike until its end, no room to cast the day before May 22, when the last league match.

If we broaden our perspective, it is clear that this controversy on Sunday did not - yes Sunday is just another battle in the war that keeps the AFE with LFP since Rubiales leads the players' union, who have left the AFE in president a footman in the service of industry. The main battleground between the AFE and the LFP is that the union has urged the employers to respond by clubs who owe money to the players, a problem suffered mainly many players 2 nd B and Third Division. In the coming days we will see how to solve this case that's in the air the next day of the season and is a further embarrassment to our football.
