Two Ascenso have been relocated and renamed: Altamira moved to Tapachula in Chiapas and becomes Cafetaleros de Tapachula, and Irapuato moved (again!) to Los Mochis in Sinaloa and becomes Murciélagos.
Also, two "expansion" teams were added to Ascenso MX: FC Juárez (working name, I believe), and Cimarrones de Sonora from Hermosillo.
The way Veracruz came back to 1st Division is laughable. They straight up bought their way into Liga MX by buying La Piedad's franchise after the team's promotion.Back Door Skip;3820768 said:This is why I can't take Mexican league seriously.
I bet if America or Chivas were ever relegated they'd just buy Queretaro or Jaguares and rebrand to stay up.
It won't be too long before we see the Irapuatos, and Tecos back in second division and teams likes Murcielagos or Cimarrones disappear just as fast.
Necaxa and Atlante (two historic clubs) should have never left Mexico City. I think they would have fared better if they'd of teamed up to build a stadium that they could both call home. Necaxa decided build a stadium in Aguascalientes and Atlante the same in Cancun...well, now they're in 2nd division with even less fallowers than the few loyal fans who would go to the Azteca. They dun fucked up bad. How did they not see this coming?
