Well, with all due respect: how we have to see ourselves, having played 87 seasons in the First Division and only 6 in the Second Division, with this one included. I put six in print so that no one thinks that I have made a mistake and that printing elves no longer exist. You play this Thursday in Cartagena, on Monday you go to the Villarreal B field (yes, B, the reserve team, the club that, without a sports director and is managed by a family, has done things well since 2000… and on Saturday you receive to Valladolid.

Let’s see, Perica family. I imagine that many of you also, like yours truly, are wondering: What the hell are we doing in Second Division? Ok: pay the penalty for poor management. With good management, it also goes down because in football there are many variables; but with poor management you go down, for sure. Although it is true that no matter how much we want all this to be over, we are going to have a mortgage to go to Burgos, to Miranda de Ebro, to Ferrol, to Amorebieta, to Alcorcón… It’s something, this. Yeah. It’s lazy. Also. It is inappropriate, of course. We don’t deserve it. Clear. But that’s what there is.

go down into the mud

There are situations in life in which we have to have a lot of humility, put our feet up, go down into the mud a lot and also lower our heads, nod and resist. And wait for the ordeal to end as soon as possible. Good. I don’t want to be a spoilsport but if we continue like this I’m afraid that in some seasons we won’t be promoted immediately, as has happened in the other five. And then?

Total, that between Cartagena, Villarreal B (yes, friends: B, which is a subsidiary, and that despite the fact that Miguel Alvarez He seems like a ten to me as a coach, as well as a great person, if we don’t beat a reserve team, we can take the gear and go directly to bathe in Llobregat) and Valladolid.

In other words, anything other than getting nine points out of a possible nine seems like a failure to me. Pressure? Well yes. The only possible pressure there can be is that imposed by the shirt and the history of our shield. Let’s go Team. Come on!!!
