WATCH: Rayo Vallecano form a human chain around the Vallecas stadium in protest of the president's decision
It's safe to say that Rayo Vallecano president Raul Martin Presa is not well liked by the club's supporters. The main reason for this is his desire to move away from the iconic Vallecas stadium, which he sees as behind the times.
Vallecas is one of the smallest stadiums in La Liga, but rather than renovating and increasing its capacity, Presa wants to move Rayo to a new ground altogether, a stance that has caused fans to launch several protests in his direction.
The latest came on Saturday, before Rayo's match against Cadiz. A significant number of supporters formed a human chain around Vallecas, in what has become a rather impressive image.

You can certainly understand why the Vallecano Ray fanbase is so against this decision to move away from Vallecas, which has been the club's home for much of its existence. It remains to be seen if Presa eventually gets the message.
