the gap between them, and us, is argubly the the same in proportion to Spain

otherwise we'd be spending more on our squad

And the gulf between surviving prem teams and the championship, is huge, which is why West Ham can still afford to pay absurd wages that we don't even pay, in the championship

There's still a great deal of honesty about La Liga. Spain are a successful nation because of that. Betis are the 5th biggest supported team in Spain, and they've been in the 2nd division 2 years. Sky will show them a fair bit this season, because of this
