    Thoroughly deserved, they've been garbage all year long and they knew what was at stake coming in to today's match. Clean-out in Villareal where will the players go now ..... let the feeding frenzy begin

    Very sad day. Just a few years ago this team was in the knockout stages of the champions league.

    I am happy that Vallecano stayed up.

    Unreal! But they played like crap all the season!

    WTF Lotina was doing as their coach????

    last year he went down with Deportivo la Coruņa, this Year with Villareal, and I think is the 5th time this guy gets relegated with a team!

    So what happens with Villarreal B? Are they allowed to stay in La Liga 2?

    Nope they'll have to get relegated to Segunda division B ..... what a shame they must be cursing at the senior player's thinking they could have done a better job

    doesn't Villarreal have the smallest population of all la liga teams? they've been overachieving for years, their minimal finances finally caught up to them.

    Lotina has a habit of relegating and promoting teams so I wouldn't be surprised if Villareal kept him as coach for next season. Going to take years for them to get over this.
