Manchego CF

Manchego Ciudad Real Club de Fútbol was a Spanish football team based in Ciudad Real in the namesake province, in the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha.

Founded in 2000, it held home games at Estadio Rey Juan Carlos I, with a capacity of 2,900 seats.

In July 2009, after six seasons in the fourth division, the club was in risk of being dissolved due to its outstanding debts,[1] which reached €1.5 million.

[3][4] The Professional Spanish Footballers Association extended the deadline for some clubs to pay debts to their players past July 31.

However, on August 25, the Royal Spanish Football Federation relegated the club in spite of it having finished in third position, due to the club's economic situation, but Manchego decided not to take part in the championship.
