Well, things just got worse. The curse of Black Friday strikes again.
This is how it happened. With 3 games still remaining in La Liga, League leaders Real Madrid lost a crucial match in the lead up to the conclusion of the season which saw them drop to second on the ladder. Barcelona, with a game in hand sat in 3rd position, only one point adrift of Real, and 4 points from new league leaders Valenica.
This is where things get crazy. A Fifa/EA systems error hands Valencia the title - due to the fact they will eventually go through the remaining 3 games undefeated, therefore maintaining top spot and winning the league ahead of rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona.. We use the word eventually because to everyone else invloved this competition was still wide open.
We are not sure at this point can or will this be investigated. However with a new version of FIFA and Sony operating system on its way, we can only assume these errors are not possible in the new era.

"It all went downhill very quickly on our return from the long holiday break". JM spoke after Friday night's nightmare events.
"It was as if we almost forgot how to win games. I am very disappointed. I cannot even blame EA Sports or Fifa at this point - this is our own disappointment I am feeling.
Barcelona boss SB was left angry and confused.
"I feel like calling EA sports right now and letting them have it." SB spoke immediately after Valencia was handed the title.
"I mean, how can this happen. We still had games to play. Its a farce! I want an investigation"
A sad end to a great season. A bitter taste left in everyone's mouth. Yuk.
