First game of the season. Also Setien, who simply doesn't know how to play against you
La Liga 2017/18
- Thread starter Santi_Mesut_Alexis_87
- Start date
They could delay Barca-Las Palmas for what it is happening in Barcellona right now.
What the feck is happening in the Sociedad - Betis game 
What a game! 4-4 FT! Just amazing!
I know this is not the politics thread, but Barcelona are playing Las Palmas
And....
Club statement
“Today, what we do is very simple. With the Spanish flag embroidered in our equipment we want to vote unequivocally in an imaginary vote to which nobody has summoned us: we believe in the unity of Spain.”

Esport3 claim Barcelona would be facing a 6 month ban from the LFP if they delay the match eventhough the entire of Catalunya has suspended all other sporting events
So playing with violence outside is ok? Rajoy is such a cnut.
Officially cancelled the match
Idiots. Should have played the game at 20:45, or on Saturnday.
I understand Barca could lose this game 3-0 and have a 3-point deduction if they decide not to play.

Only if they refuse to play while La Liga says the match can be played safely, and no other higher authority in Spain says otherwise.
Sounds like pericarditis.
So they are fine?
It seems that the match will go on and if Barca don't show up they lose the points. But it's not certain at this moment.
Cheers mate.
Seems like the match could be played with no spectators. Highly likely atm.
40 minutes ago, not even now do we know if the match is cancelled or not, the players want to play and the regional police (mossos) say that there's no problem in playing the game.
Why people have this urge to call the match off when it's not oficial? You get a prize for foretelling or something?
Different websites saying different things, any official confirmation if the match is cancelled or not?
Clicks and views.
Barcelona starting lineup has been announced: Ter Stegen, Sergi Roberto, Piqué, Mascherano, Jordi Alba, Busquets, Paulinho, Denis Suárez, Aleix Vidal, Messi y Suárez.
If we're going to have a game or not, yet to be seen, but seems likely

No urge, merely passing on reporting from RAC1 - now updated to being played behind closed doors
We all know who pays RAC1 bills, so it was jumping the gun believing them when they have interests in escalating the whole thing, hence why I don't understand the urge to talk in absolutes like you did before it becomes official.
Anyway, main problem seems to be that a group of fans has told the club they would invade the pitch since minute 1, that's the threat that keeps everything locked and would lead us to a match with no spectators
Officially behind closed doors. Balls.
Good call. LFP can't wait to reduce the 7pts gap. Would've took some points off Barca in no time.
tl;dr in English, they condemn the actions today in Catalunya against the feedom of speech and democratic rights of the citizens (sigh). Due to those exceptional circumstances the game will be played behind close doors after the LFP refused to re-schedule it.
Awful bunch of liars, I really believe that the club has been taking hostage by some fans that wanted to boycott the game with a pitch invasion, and the board is shielding that fact in that press release
Your average La Liga match is more fun to watch than the average PL match where teams play with 9 or sometimes even 10 behind the ball.
Espanyol fans better not forget their passports today
I can hear everything in the stadium 
Weird seeing them play in an empty stadium. 0-0 after 18 minutes.
Honestly...regardless of where you stand, this was a massive clusterfeck from rajoy and tebas
Messi and Suarez close to the 1-0.
Football looks crap without fans, for that matter majority sports.
There will be no crowd intimidating the ref in this game.
Nasty foul on Busquets. Deserved booking.
Also no crowd to intimidate Las Palmas.
Las Palmas being dangerous.
Good job I don't speak Spanish and cannot understand what is being shouted.
I am a sensitive soul.
