Case " Águilas Guanacastecas CF - CD Barrio México "

Before the start of the season was Mario Sotela, majority owner of the highly indebted Águilas CF Guanacastecas, the franchise to the second division CD Barrio México sell and go in the season 2010/11 in the second division at the start. This swap, only a week before the start of the season, but was forbidden by the FEDEFUTBOL, as already had worked in both local league organizations ( UNAFUT, LIACSE ) the exact participation and competition regulations and the game plan, and franchise sales only possible before the rubber stamp of the various regulations are.

So Sotela and Minor Vargas decided majority owner of CD Barrio México that continue to keep both franchises in each league, but enroll the board, the players, the stadium, etc. of the other clubs and thus to replace the franchise.

CD Barrio México, which now plays in the Primera División, changed the name of the franchise immediately into CD Barrio México. However, the Liga de Ascenso forbade Águilas CF Guanacastecas to rename their new franchise. Thus, although the Águilas run on the jerseys of their team colors, but with the name CD Barrio México.

Thus, there are both in the first and in the second division with a club called CD Barrio México, where the real Barrio México now plays in the first and the Águilas named Barrio México in the second division. The press calls the Águilas Águilas but despite everything.

At the start of the season Mario Sotela changed the name of " fancy names " of his antretenden under the name CD Barrio México clubs in Águilas CF. Home of Águilas is since no longer Liberia, but Heredia.

In November 2010, before the last day of group matches, complained the former player of Liberia Mia CF Minor Diaz and Pablo Salazar, the franchise, which is currently used by CD Barrio México, before the labor court, since they still $ 200,000 each is owed. Then certain the Labour Court, which has until CD Barrio México (users of the franchise ) Liberia paid all the debts the franchise, is closed for the operation of gambling. So lost CD Barrio the last game of the group stage against AD Municipal de Puntarenas with 0:3 at the green table, as well as the subsequent quarter-finals against AD Santos de Guápiles.

In December 2010 the General Assembly of the UNAFUT decided during the new season, the games of Barrio México well with 0:3 to be considered, if not the Friday before the game relate to all debts of the franchise have been paid.

After several meetings, discussions and investigations of the case, the members of the UNAFUT voted at an extraordinary general meeting on 1 March 2011 for the franchise of Liberia Mía ( used by CD Barrio México ) exclude, with immediate effect. The remaining games of the clubs are ranked 0-3 and maintained the rest of the game operation. The last placed athlete will descend in spite of the exclusion of Barrio México in the second division; the excluded franchise is excluded completely from professional football (1st and 2nd league).
