The Competition Judge, Carmen Pérez, has decided this Thursday to extend the ban on playing League matches on Tuesdays. That means that three matches of the seventh round of the Second Division, scheduled for Tuesday, October 20, have had to change their scheduled date. The encounters are Las Palmas-Castellón (now Wednesday at 7:00 p.m.), Fuenlabrada-Logroñés (Wednesday, 9:30 p.m.) and Almería-Cartagena (Wednesday, 9:30 p.m.).
This decision The open conflict between LaLiga and the Federation on business days intensifies for the dispute of League matches. For this week the judicial resolution on LaLiga's request that matches be played was expected Monday Y Friday. Until now, the Federation has refused to allow those two days to be played.
The origin of the decision of the Competition Judge is in a request from the Federation after the fourth day of the First League. LaLiga then set two games on Tuesday, Real Sociedad-Valencia and Getafe-Betis. The FEF did not ask for those meetings to be rescheduled, but warned that the only days established by regulation for the dispute of league matches during the week are Wednesday Y Thursday.
LaLiga, not satisfied with the resolution, expresses its opinion in a press release: “Despite the fact that other competitions may play matches on Tuesdays, including the Copa del Rey, organized by the RFEF, the RFEF constantly tries to hinder LaLiga in scheduling the matches, all despite the measures agreed by the Provincial Court of Madrid. The RFEF takes another step in its obstruction to LaLiga since last season it did not put any impediment to the programming of matches of weekdays matches on Tuesdays. “
