Getafe and Rayo relegated is 8-15 goals less per season for Penaldo and 12 points not guaranteed to Real Madrid before the league has even started. Need less of those Madrid teams in the league. Another one is already getting promoted from Segunda.
While Getafe away is indeed a tough game, we're at least 9 points guaranteed before this league has ever started as well.
And we usually steamroller Getafe & Rayo Vallecano as well.
I couldn't give two shits about Getafe, but I'd much rather see such an entertaining team like Rayo stay up on La Liga.
As always I agree with most of what you say, it's just that Gijon took 2 points away from Real Madrid which ended up being very imporant for us. Rayo and Getafe got trashed and did nothing, especially Rayo who conceded 10 goals at the Bernabau.
To be fair, Rayo Vallecano had a 2-1 lead and actually did pretty well.
Once they're down with 2 man, it was game over for them.
