I don't want to p155 on the Barca fans parade but the standard of teams in the bottom half of La Liga is very poor.

The gap between the big 3 is increasing. And If Real Madrid and Barca don't start sharing the TV money around fairly then the gap will continue to grow. To put it in perspective, most of the teams in the bottom half of La Liga operate on budgets lower than many clubs in the English Championship. No wonder Real and Barca regularly thump teams 6-0 and 9-1.
