The 2014–15 Segunda División season (known as the Liga Adelante for sponsorship reasons[2]) is the 84th since its establishment. The campaign began on 23 August 2014 and the league phase of 42 rounds ended on 7 June 2015. The entire season ended on 21 June 2015 with the promotion play-off finals.
A total of 22 teams will contest the league, including 15 sides from the 2013–14 season, four promoted from the 2013–14 Segunda División B and three relegated from the 2013–14 La Liga.
Due to their financial problems, Murcia and Racing de Santander were threatened with being relegated to the Segunda División B. On 1 August 2014, LaLiga published an official statement announcing that Murcia was not able to be registered in the league, while Racing had five days to present the additional economic-financial information requested by the association.[3]
On 7 August, LaLiga decided to relegate Murcia to the Segunda División B, whereby Mirandés remained in the Segunda despite being in a relegation position.[3]
On 13 August, despite LaLiga being forced to re-admit Murcia and suspending its relegation to Segunda División B,[4] the League announced in a new statement that it could not allow Murcia to play in the Segunda[5] and, the next day, suspended the start of the championship.[6] [7]
A new judgement confirmed the relegation of Murcia and the Segunda started with Mirandés completing the 22 teams.[8]
