CD Alcoyano
Encyclopedia
Club Deportivo Alcoyano is a Spanish football team based in Alcoy, in the autonomous community of Valencia
. Founded in 1929, it plays in Segunda División
, holding home games in Estadio El Collao, with a 5,000-seat capacity. The team is also known by its name in Valencian
: Alcoià.
A simile
exists in Spanish
which includes the name of this football club, "Tener más moral que el Alcoyano" ("To have more morale than Alcoyano"). The phrase possibly originated in the 1950s, when Alcoyano were losing a game by 0–13 at home but never gave up, still trying hard to score at the end of the match. However, this is disputed by some historians, with the origins being somewhat unclear.
In 1942, the club first reached the Segunda División
, going on to alternate between that level and the top flight
in the subsequent years. Their debut in the latter took place with a 2–3 home loss against Real Murcia
, in an eventual relegation, as second from bottom.
In 1947–48, Alcoyano maintained its first division status for the only time in its history, even finishing higher than Real Madrid
. The following forty years, however, were spent mainly in the third
and fourth divisions
, with very brief spells in level two.
Alcoyano returned to the third category for 2004–05, consistently reached the promotion play-offs, and consistently failed to be promoted. In the 2005–06 season, the team also had a good run in the Spanish Cup
, beating RCD Mallorca
4–1 and losing by just one goal (0–1) in the fourth round against Atlético Madrid.
In June 2011, 42 years after, Alcoyano finally returned to the second division, after finishing in third position
in the regular season, and disposing of Real Madrid Castilla
, SD Eibar
and CD Lugo
in the promotion playoffs
