Since the 2021-22 season, it has been ranked 22nd in the historical classification of the highest category.

History

Club Getafe Deportivo Football Club

The first information about soccer in the municipality of Getafe is related to the Getafe Deportivo Society founded by cartoonist and sculptor Filiberto Montagud in 1923. This society initially intended to be a multi-sports and cultural club. Its first soccer match was held on May 19, 1923 against La Internacional Deportiva in Madrid. The following year, when soccer became its main activity, it was renamed Club Getafe Deportivo Football Club beginning to play as a federated team in 1928. After playing a few seasons in the regional category, it disappeared in 1933.

Getafe Sports Club

In December 1945, several residents of the town met in the now-defunct bar La Marquesina, founding the Club Getafe Deportivo to replace the previous club started in 1923, although the date of the team's foundation was officially It is February 24, 1946, the day an act was held at the Cine Palacio. This club will reach the military for 6 consecutive seasons in the 2nd Division. In the 1981-82 season, Club Getafe Deportivo ended up relegated to 2nd B, but due to the financial disaster in which it found itself and forced to default on its debts, it was relegated to the Third Division. In an extraordinary assembly held on July 1, 1983 in the Costa de Vigo halls, this company was legally dissolved.

Getafe Football Club

On July 8, 1983, a week after the dissolution of Club Getafe Deportivo, in the same halls Costa de Vigo, the founding of the Costa de Vigo was decided in a new assembly of associates. b>Getafe Football Club. In order not to start from scratch, the federative license of the subsidiary team, Club Deportivo Getafe Promesas, was used, which was going to play the following season in the 2nd Ordinary Castilian Regional, two categories higher than the one it would have played. With the support of the city council, the entire sporting establishment of the previous team was transferred to the new one, the name of the club and the shield were changed to avoid being legally related to Club Getafe Deportivo and allow it to start without debts.

Controversy over the club's founding date

Although the official founding of Getafe Club de Fútbol is considered to have been on July 8, 1983, as published by the club and the LFP on their respective websites, all the events that occurred in the history of football in Getafe generate discrepancies about what is considered the team's start date depending on the point of view chosen.

The fact that the current color of the clothing, the lyrics of the hymn and the blue ring on the shield are based on those of the Sociedad Getafe Deportivo is one of the reasons why Some of the fans base it on indicating May 19, 1923 as the start date of the Geta.

Another consideration is that the beginning corresponds to the founding act carried out on February 24, 1946 of Club Getafe Deportivo, as if the defunct club had been "refounded". In some stands of the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez the years 1946 and 1983 are shown in clear allusion to both dates.

Taking into account nothing more than the age of the sports license, the team's foundation date would be September 1, 1976, the date on which the Club de Fútbol Peña Madridista Getafe was registered, which enrolls in the Third Ordinary Regional and begins to compete in the 1976/77 season. This team changed its name to Club Deportivo Peña Getafe in 1981 and to Club Deportivo Getafe Promesas on July 10, 1982, becoming the subsidiary of Club Deportivo Getafe through a one-year agreement that allowed it to use the same colours, shield and stadium. It would finally become Getafe Club de Fútbol after the assembly that took place on July 8, 1983, in which the name change was decided.

From Regional to Second Division

After achieving promotion consecutively from the Regional, year after year, with total authority over rivals and categories, the team is once again excited. The club made a consecutive promotion in category year after year until it competed in the 1987-88 campaign in the 2nd B category, remaining in a highly creditable third place.

In the 1990–91 season, Getafe C.F. finished in fourth place in the regular league, disputing the promotion with Real Racing Club de Santander, Cartagena F.C. and Córdoba C.F., leaving the Azulón team in third position in the group and Racing being promoted. with Baracaldo C.F. and Granada C.F.

Finally, on June 11, 1994 against U. D. Figueras led by coach Luis Sánchez Duque, the long-awaited first promotion to the Second Division was achieved, after finishing second in the league and beating U. D. Figueras in promotion, Deportivo Alavés and Real Club Recreativo de Huelva.

Ascents and descents

The 1994–95 season is the first for Getafe C.F. in the Second Division and it undergoes the change of category, obtaining an eighteenth place with only 5 victories and up to 20 draws. But the relegation and subsequent readmission to the First Division due to financial problems of Sevilla F.C. and Real Club Celta de Vigo means that the teams Albacete Balompié and Real Valladolid that had been relegated recover the category and that in the Second Division there are two vacant positions. The RFEF decides to return to C. D. Leganés and Getafe C. F. to the Second Division. Due to the fact that the club was prepared both in budget and as a team to play in 2nd B, the 1995-96 season descended, remaining in nineteenth position with 32 points, 7 wins, 11 draws and 20 losses.

Once the 1995–96 season ended, Getafe C.F. became a Sports Public Limited Company whose majority shareholder was the Getafe City Council. In the 1996-97 season, the team is about to chain another relegation to the Third Division after finishing sixteenth and must play the promotion of permanence, its rival being Sociedad Deportiva Huesca, which it defeats with an aggregate of 5-2.

On November 13, 1997, the Municipal Stadium of Las Margaritas was demolished for the construction of the current Coliseum Alfonso Pérez field, which bears the name of the former international player of the municipality and which would be inaugurated on August 30, 1998. During that time the team played at the facilities of the Estadio Juan de la Cierva.

In the following season, 1997–98, he managed to improve his results after the scare of the previous season and finished seventh, although with no chance of aspiring to promotion.

The 1998–99 season, coached by Santiago Martín Prado "Pradito" achieved first position in the regular phase in group I of Second Division B. He played the promotion phase against Baracaldo C. F., Real Murcia, and Sevilla F. C. "B" finishing first and going up to the Second Division for the second time in its history.

In the 1999-00 season the team was very irregular. The beginning is disastrous and the first victory is not achieved until matchday 8, but from then on they begin to obtain good results and the first round ends in ninth position, however the second round begins with seven consecutive defeats that sink him until the penultimate position, and although the team improves the results and even leaves the relegation places, it finally ends up in nineteenth, one point away from safety. Under normal conditions, this would have meant losing the category, but thanks to the relegation of Atlético de Madrid, which also forced the relegation of the subsidiary, 19th place in a 22-team league allowed Getafe C.F. to maintain the category. In the following season, Getafe C.F. did not take advantage of the gift of the previous campaign and after an acceptable first third the team began to accumulate bad results and soon fell to relegation places and despite having numerous occasions to get out of relegation places and miss them the The team reaches the final stretch of the season two points from salvation, but a disastrous final stretch where they have only drawn three draws in the last twelve games has buried their chances of permanence, finishing in penultimate position and playing their last game already relegated to the Second Division B at the Coliseum against Atlético de Madrid who were fighting for a promotion that they did not get that season.

The start of the 2001-02 season is marked by the tragedy of the murder of Sebas on August 26, 2001 in Castellón while he was on leave prior to the start of the season. This brought the completely revamped squad together with Felines as coach. In addition, the club was going through a new economic crisis in which the players went several months without getting paid, which made them fear their disappearance again. At the end of April 2002, a group of Getafe businessmen took charge of the club and Ángel Torres Sánchez was appointed president, who achieved the financial stability of the club. Even with all these events, Getafe C.F. achieved a fifth place in the regular league and thanks to the fact that Universidad Las Palmas could not be promoted because it was a subsidiary of Unión Deportiva Las Palmas at that time, Getafe C.F. played the promotion phase in its place. The team manages to finish first against Motril C. F., Hospitalet and Cultural Leonesa and return to the Second Division for the third time.

The 2002-03 season began with the signings of players who were very important to the team such as "Gica" Craioveanu, Vivar Dorado or Diego Rivas among others, finishing that season in a quiet eleventh place.

First Division

Vivar Dorado, Blue Club player between 2002 and 2007. He made the first climb to First Division in the history of Getafe.

The 2003/04 season is one of the most important in the club's history. The team is joined by key players such as Miguel Carrilero "Michel II", Gari Uranga, Mario Cotelo, Sergio Pachón or David Belenguer among others. This team, coached by Josu Uribe, manages to carry out a stupendous second round of the championship, managing to fight on the last day for one of the three places that gave the right to promotion to the First Division against Levante U.D., C.D. Numancia and Deportivo Alavés. On Saturday, June 19, 2004 at the Heliodoro Rodríguez López Stadium against C. D. Tenerife gets Getafe C.F. win with a 3-5 result in which the great performance of Sergio Pachón stands out especially, scoring four of the five goals for Getafe C.F. This victory gives them second place in the 2nd Division, obtaining promotion in the highest category of Spanish football for the first time. Getafe C.F. it becomes the fourth team and the first one not located in the capital of Spain that represents the Community of Madrid in the first Division.

His first season in Primera is 2004/05. The coach was Quique Sánchez Flores, who was also making his debut in the category. The first scorer was José Antonio (Getafe B player) 3-1 against Zaragoza. Players like Mariano Pernía, Raúl Albiol, Gabi or Riki signed. He finished in thirteenth place with 47 points, reaching the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey. Notable this season are the victories at the Coliseum against Real Madrid and at San Mamés against Athletic Club.

The following season, Quique Sánchez Flores went to Valencia CF, replaced by the German Bernd Schuster. In the 2005-2006 season, the team had a magnificent season, finishing in ninth place with 54 points. In the Copa del Rey he reached the round of 16, just like the previous year. This makes the Getafe CF coach worthy of the first Miguel Muñoz trophy.

"Pato" Abbondanzieri, Blue Club player between 2007-2009. He got the Zamora trophy.

In the 2006/07 season, they finished ninth again with 52 points, and surprisingly they reached the Copa del Rey final for the first time after eliminating Xerez CD, Valencia CF, CA Osasuna and FC Barcelona, against whom they turned a semifinal that had become very complicated in the first leg (5-2 at the Camp Nou where Messi scored a goal considered a copy of Maradona's golden goal), endorsing him a 4-0 win at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. In the final, which is played against Sevilla FC, a solitary goal by Malian Kanouté prevents them from winning the first title in their history, but they qualify for the UEFA Cup as Sevilla FC is already qualified to play in another international competition more range, the Champions League. This season he led the then Azulón coach, Bernd Schuster, to sign for Real Madrid, replacing him on the Getafense bench with Michael Laudrup. Also that season, the Zamora trophy was awarded to the Getafe CF goalkeeper, the "Pato" Abbondanzieri.

EuroGeta

On September 20, 2007, Getafe made its debut in the UEFA Cup, beating FC Twente de Enschede (Holland) 1-0 in the first game, at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, and would finally pass round despite losing 3-2 in the second leg, at FC Twente's stadium on 4 October. On April 10, Getafe is eliminated in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Cup with FC Bayern Munich. Surprisingly, they get a draw (1-1) at the German Allianz Arena stadium. In the return he suffered the draw "in extremis" of Bayern Munich at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, when the Madrid team won 3-1 after extra time and 5 minutes from the end. An unfortunate intervention of the meta 'Pato' Abbondanzieri riveted a goal by the Italian Toni, and a goal in the last minute, gave the pass to the Germans, for the double value of the away goals, leaving an overall score of the tie of 4-4. The words of the FC Bayern Munich coach Ottmar Hitzfeld sums up what happened on the pitch at the end of the game: "They were able to humiliate us. Getafe deserved the victory". For his part, the captain of the Germans, Oliver Kahn, declared at the end of the game to the SAT 1 channel: "I have played 140 European Cup games, I have been in all parts -Madrid, Milan, London, Barcelona- but tonight is incredible. I had not experienced anything like this in 40 years". Despite this elimination, Getafe as a whole carried out a great campaign in this first UEFA Cup that they played in their entire history, eliminating teams like Benfica, or the AEK Athens FC, as well as beating historic clubs like Tottenham Hotspur FC or RSC Anderlecht.

On April 16, 2008, Getafe loses its second consecutive Copa del Rey final, this time against Valencia, with a bigger score of 3-1, in which the solitary Azulón goal was achieved from a penalty by Barn.

On May 2, 2008, in commemoration of the 2nd centenary of the May 2 uprising, Getafe receives the Gold Medal of the Community of Madrid, by President Esperanza Aguirre, who pronounces the following words: "Getafe has not ceased to amaze all football fans. The work of managers, coaches and players has allowed the team from what is already a great city to rub shoulders with the best, such as Bayern Munich".

In the 2009/10 season, they were proclaimed sixth in the 1st Division after adding 58 points and with it qualifying for the Europa League (Former UEFA) after beating Club Atlético de Madrid 1-3 at the Vicente Calderón and thus consummating a magnificent season under the orders of Míchel. In this season all the records in the history of Getafe are broken. Getafe's top scorer was Roberto Soldado, who a season later was signed by Valencia CF after having a very good campaign, as was Pedro León, who was signed by Real Madrid Club de Fútbol. Míchel continued to lead the azulón club.

In the 2010/11 season, Getafe competes for the second time in the UEFA Europa League, beating Cypriot APOEL Nicosia in the previous tie. He is eliminated in the group stage, finishing third against VfB Stuttgart, Young Boys and Odense BK. In the league, the team is very irregular, even fighting for permanence in the last game, finally reaching 16th position.

Stagnation and social decline

Getafe team season 2012–13, meeting moments before the start of the match. Party held 21-04-2013 between Getafe – Spanish corresponding to The League.
Party disputed between Getafe and Barcelona.

In the following season, Míchel's contract as coach ends and Luis García Plaza is signed for a period of 3 years. Players such as Daniel Güiza, Pedro León or Alexis Ruano return to the club, highlighting the youth squad Abdelaziz Barrada and the goalkeeper on loan from Valencia, Miguel Ángel Moyá. After a bad start to the season, the team achieves a regularity that makes it reach permanence with 5 days to go in the league, wasting the opportunity to reach European positions in the last leg of the competition.

On April 21, 2011, the purchase of the Sports Limited Company was made official by the investment group Royal Emirates Group of Dubai (United Arab Emirates). This information was confirmed on April 25, 2011 by part of the president of the club, Ángel Torres Sánchez, at a press conference, and it was reported that it would enter into force on July 1, 2012. After a year, due to contradictory information from the club's management and the Royal Emirates Group, it was unknown which had been the agreement signed between the two, and the future of it. This businessman had initially been the interlocutor between the Royal Emirates Group and Getafe C.F. Part of the sports press interpreted that the Royal Emirates Group was part of the plot, confusing the Dubai company with false sheikhs and fraudsters. On June 28, 2012, the Royal Emirates Group announced that it would take legal action for these events, if precise.

In May 2012, the confrontation that had existed for several seasons between Ángel Torres Sánchez, president of the club, and the Getafe fans, caused by social policy, by the lack of promoting the growth of the fans, and especially for the price of the "economic" who are after Athletic Club the highest priced ones in the 1st Division. This is the cause, according to the fans, of the continuous decrease in subscribers and the increasingly low attendance at the stadium aggravated by the economic crisis. On May 24, 2012, Ángel Torres made some public statements criticizing the protest of the Azulona fans in which he expressed that & # 34; Getafe has the cheapest Primera [season ticket] & # 3. 4; and "It's nonsense. If it's fashionable to protest, I'll join. Soccer players earn a lot. Instead of so many tributes, let them lower their salaries and pay what would mean the lowering of the subscriptions". On May 27, 2012, a concentration is held by a platform of fans called "Getafe we are all" at gate 0 of the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in protest for being considered a "Mistreated Hobby" by the club, with approximately 500 team fans appearing. In September 2014, the National Professional Soccer League prohibited Pedro León from registering.

Embodied players who left the club at this time are Manu del Moral in the 2011/12 season bound for Sevilla; Daniel Cata Díaz in the 2012/13 season signed by Atlético de Madrid and captain Javier Casquero, also in the 2012/13 season due to termination of contract. All of them being team captains in the season prior to his departure.

Relegation to Second Division

Meeting disputed between the Deportivo de La Coruña and the Getafe CF.

In the following seasons, Getafe begins to have a mediocre track record in sports. On March 10, 2014, coach Luis García Plaza was dismissed for having a streak of 12 consecutive days without winning and being one point above relegation. He is replaced by former Getafe player Cosmin Contra, achieving salvation in the last game with victory at the Vallecas Stadium on the last day of the season.

In the 2014-15 season, sports drift did not improve. At the beginning of 2015, coach Cosmin Contra left the club to go to Guangzhou R&F FC, replacing him with Quique Sánchez Flores. This in turn also leaves the club a few weeks later due to disagreements with the president Ángel Torres and the sale of player files. Until the end of the season, he was replaced by Pablo Franco Martín, who was the subsidiary's coach. Permanence is achieved with 37 points in 15th place with 21 losses, 7 draws and 10 wins.

For the 2015-16 season, Fran Escribá was hired, reaching 26 points on matchday 20, placing the team in 10th position. But a long losing streak means that on matchday 32 with 28 points (only 2 draws in 12 matchdays) the team is in 19th position and Fran Escribá is replaced by Juan Eduardo Esnaider. There is a final reaction getting 8 points in the following 5 rounds but a defeat in the last game of the season against Real Betis Balompié at the Benito Villamarín Stadium on May 15 of the 2015/2016 season means that, for the first time in its history, Getafe is relegated to Second Division after 12 consecutive years in the top flight. They are accompanied in the descent by Rayo Vallecano from Madrid and Levante Unión Deportiva.

It was Bordalás

José Bordalás.

For the 2016-17 season, Juan Eduardo Esnaider remains as coach and the squad is significantly renewed. Among others, Pedro León, Pablo Sarabia and Álvaro Vázquez leave the team, in addition to those who were on loan. A significant number of players are signed, mainly highlighting Jorge Molina, Francisco Portillo, Daniel Pacheco and Alejandro Faurlín. Cata Díaz returns to the club from Boca Junior and Juan Cala from a fleeting loan to FK Anzhí Majachkalá. In the winter market, Sergio Mora also returns transferred from UCAM Murcia

The beginning of the season maintains the same trend as the previous one, even changing categories and with a great renewal of players in the squad. On matchday 7, after a defeat at home against Girona F.C, with only 6 points and in the penultimate position of the table, Juan Eduardo Esnaider is dismissed and José Bordalás is hired to reverse the situation. There is a radical change in the team and they manage to finish the regular season in third position with 68 points and with options to reach direct promotion positions until the penultimate day.

The promotion Play Off phase is played, being the first opponent in the semifinals S.D Huesca, defeating them in the two-legged tie by a total of 5-2 in favor of Getafe. The final is played against C.D Tenerife, who had eliminated Cádiz C.F, drawing 1-1 on aggregate and prevailing in the top final position in the regular phase: 4th against 5th. On June 21, 2017, the first leg is played at Heliodoro Rodríguez López, defeating C.D. Tenerife thanks to the only goal in the game by Jorge Sáenz. On June 24, 2017, the second leg is played at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, defeating Getafe C.F. with goals first from Alejandro Faurlín in the 9th minute, from Dani Pacheco in the 13th minute, from "Choco" Lozano for C.D. Tenerife at 17' and the second by Dani Pacheco in minute 37'; establishing a final result of 3-1 in favor of Getafe C.F with an overall result of the tie of 3-2 also in favor of Getafe C.F. The team gets promotion to the First Division for the second time in its history and like the first time with a match against C.D. Tenerife.

In the return to the First Division in the 2017-18 season, José Bordalás is renewed, being his first season managing a club in the first division. Djené, Mauro Arambarri, Mathias Olivera, Leandro Cabrera and Ángel Rodriguez among others, become part of the club this season. Mehdi Lacen, Alejandro Faurlín and Cata Díaz end their relationship with the club. As an outstanding event, on September 8, 2017, the "Historical Derby" at the Municipal Stadium of Butarque against Club Deportivo Leganés with a 1-2 away victory, with goals from Mauro Arambarri and Álvaro Jiménez for the Getafe team, and Guerrero for Leganés. year achieving eighth place with 55 points (15V 10E 13P) with options to get a place in European competition.

In the 2018-19 season David Soria, Vitorino Antunes, Nemanja Maksimović and Jaime Mata are signed. Notable casualties are Vicente Guaita, Sergio Mora and Daniel Pacheco. Historical records are achieved reaching fifth place (15V 14E 9P), the best to date, and remaining in Champions League positions for a large part of the season. In the Copa del Rey they managed to reach the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Valencia C.F. who was finally the champion of the tournament. Getafe striker Ángel was awarded the tournament's top scorer with 5 goals.

The 2019-20 season disputes its third UEFA Europa League thanks to the fifth place reached the previous season. As new notable additions we can refer to Allan Romeo Nyom and Marc Cucurella, the assignments of Deyverson and Kenedy, and Leandro Cabrera as a noteworthy drop. Framed in Group C with Basel, Krasnodar and Trabzonspor, they obtained second place (4W 0E 2L) which allowed them to advance to the 1/16 final. The tie is played against Ajax Amsterdam, the best third in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, over two legs. On February 20, 2020, the first match is held at the Coliseum with a 2-0 result in favor of Getafe with goals from Deyverson and Kenedy. On February 27, the second leg of the tie is celebrated at the Johan Cruyff Arena with a 2-1 result in favor of Ajax Amsterdam that would allow Getafe to play the next phase of the tournament. Jaime Mata opened the scoring in favor of Getafe and, later, Danilo Pereira da Silva and Mathias Olivera scored in favor of Ajax through an own goal. The 1/8 final tie was to be played against Inter Milan in a double game, but due to the covid19 pandemic it was postponed until August 5, 2020, to a single game behind closed doors at the Arena AufSchalke in Germany. The result was 2-0 in favor of Inter Milan with goals from Lukaku and Eriksen ending Getafe's participation in the tournament. In his participation in the League, he finished in eighth place with 54 points (14V 12E 12D) outside the positions that allowed European participation even being between 3rd and 7th places from days 13 to 37 of the season.

The 2020-21 season is marked by the restrictions imposed by the pandemic. In the transfer chapter, it is worth noting the registration of Enes Ünal in the summer market and the transfer of Carles Aleñá in the winter market, and the drops of Jorge Molina and Vitorino Antunes. The season turns out to be mediocre compared to the previous ones, finishing in 15th with 38 points (9W 11E 18P). This would be the last season of José Bordalás as coach of Getafe ending his contract and signing for Valencia Club de Fútbol for the following campaign. To replace him, Míchel González is hired, who returns to the bench of the Azulón club.

Latest seasons (current)

Getafe in the 2021-22 season carries out the definitive transfer of Carles Aleñá to the club. Notable casualties are Francisco Portillo, Ángel Rodriguez, Allan Nyom and Marc Cucurella. The beginning of the season is disastrous. In the first 8 days only one point has been achieved and the last position of the table is occupied with 5 of the permanence. The situation becomes untenable and Michel is dismissed, taking his place, Quique Sánchez Flores, who returns for the third time to train Getafe. The team got over it, and thanks to a good run of matches and the 16 goals scored by Enes Ünal this season, Getafe achieved mathematical permanence on the penultimate matchday with a 0-0 draw against Futbol Club Barcelona, finally getting 15. º place with 39 points (8V 15E 15P).

Quique Sánchez Flores is renewed for the 2022-23 season and a major renewal of the squad is carried out. The loss of Mathías Olivera, who is signed by SSC Napoli, stands out.

Stadium

Estadio Coliseum Alfonso Pérez

The club's stadium is the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, located in Getafe (Madrid). It is municipal property and the name of the stadium was put in honor of the famous former soccer player of the town, Alfonso Pérez, although the player has never had any sporting relationship with the club. This stadium was built in 1998 and currently, after its expansion, has a capacity of 17,000 people. Getafe CF has played in this stadium since August 30, 1998, the date on which the team played its first match against Talavera Club de Fútbol, although the official inauguration takes place a few days later, on September 2, with a triangular match that would have the presence of Club Atlético de Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Feyenoord de Rotterdam. 200 meters from the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez is the Getafe Sports City, an area with five soccer fields and various sports facilities where the Getafe Club de Fútbol teams train.

The stadium can be reached, by public transport, on the intercity bus lines 443, 448, 488, the night buses N805 and N807 and the urban line 3. By Metro, Los Espartales Station on line 12 is the closest to the venue. And in Cercanías, the Las Margaritas Universidad Station on the C-4 line and the El Casar Station on the C-3 line are the closest to the soccer field.

Before 1998, the club's teams played and trained in the soccer stadium in the Getafense neighborhood of Las Margaritas, which had a much smaller capacity than the current one. Later they played at the Juan de la Cierva Stadium in the Juan de la Cierva neighborhood for two provisional seasons until the construction of the new stadium.

Players

The first "star" of this team in the 80s were among others: Collado, Rebollo, Corona, Carlete, etc. The Getafe C.F. at that time they were mostly from Madrid.

Social area and sociocultural dimension

Hobby

The characteristics of the current fans of Getafe Club de Fútbol are highly determined by the recent history of the club and the municipality it represents, and also, in a very important way, by its proximity to international teams such as Real Madrid C. F. and Atlético from Madrid.

Until its promotion to the First Division in 2004, Getafe Club de Fútbol had played in lower divisions, alternating between the 2nd division and the 2nd division B (2nd and 3rd category of Spanish football), this made it on many occasions the second team for the residents of Getafe, in the same way that occurs in many Spanish regions where the little possibility of achieving a title for one of the geographically close teams, even militating in the first division, makes many Spanish fans prefer teams like Real Madrid C. F. or F. C. Barcelona.

The club is located in a municipality in the Madrid metropolitan area with a majority of the emigrant population from other Spanish regions who arrived in the 1960s and 1970s, many of them mostly fans of other clubs in their places of origin, or failing that, one of the big clubs in the league, especially Real Madrid C. F. or Atlético de Madrid.

We must add the very scant presence in the sports information media, as there is no coverage by any type of regional press, as is the case with other teams in the provincial capital, this being covered almost exclusively by Real Madrid C. F., F. C. Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid.[citation required]

The promotion to the first division of Getafe C.F., spectacularly increased the number of subscribers, called by the novelty of having the team from the municipality playing in the highest category. It went from approximately 5,000 subscribers in the 2003/04 season to nearly 11,500 subscribers in 2004/05. Figures that were maintained thanks to the following seasons in which the team played two Copa del Rey finals and had a great participation in the UEFA Cup. This caused many fans to appear outside the municipality of Getafe. Getafenses who went to live in other towns with cheaper housing prices, or fans from nearby towns (Parla, Fuenlabrada, Móstoles, …) who feel attracted by a modest team.[citation required ] Fans are even beginning to appear in other Spanish provinces and other countries such as Great Britain, Germany, Venezuela, Australia, Mexico, etc.[citation required]

As of 2008, a sharp decline began in the number of subscribers, possibly caused by:

  • The important increase in the prices of fertilizers, and an ineffective social policy of the club.
  • An economic crisis in Spain that especially affects the industry and therefore the purchasing power of a predominantly working social mass such as the neighbors of Getafe.
  • A policy of the National League of Professional Football, especially in the hours and prices of entry and fertilizers, which harms the fans who want to attend the stadiums.
  • Parts of subscribers without sufficient entrenchment acquired by the team to which the new effect of promotion to first division has been passed.
  • Bad seasons of the team at play and results, coming to the edge of the descent a couple of seasons.

All these causes caused a decrease of close to a thousand season tickets, reaching approximately 6000 season ticket holders in the 2013/14 season, with the stadium having an attendance of less than 50% of its capacity. The image of the half-empty stadium together with the discredit caused by a sensationalist Spanish sports press led to the club being stigmatized with a reputation as a team without fans.

However, given the good performance of the club in the second division in the 2016/17 season, after which promotion was achieved just one year after being relegated, and a more reasonable pricing policy than in previous years it seems the stigma begins to disappear. So much so, that for the 2017/18 season, 12,853 subscribers were achieved at the Coliseum, which surpassed its best previous record, achieved more than a decade ago in its first season in the First Division, when it had some 11,500 subscribers. In 2019, the subscriber record was broken again, reaching 13,000 for the first time.

  • Peña La Amistad, founded in 1970
  • Peña Los Perejiles, founded in 1971
  • Peña San Isidro, founded in 1975.

These clubs were founded by fans of the now-defunct Getafe Deportivo Club and maintained their continuity with the new Getafe C.F. Other unique Getafense clubs are:

  • Peña Doña Romera, founded in 1995, being one of the first football fans in Spain, integrated only and exclusively by women.
  • Peña Peñi, who has the originality that has been created in honor of Javier Cabeza Valero "Peñi", using the team.

In addition, there are more amateur clubs such as:

  • Peña Marea Azul
  • Blue Lions
  • The Last Blue
  • The Botellín
  • Getagenios.
  • Chicken Section
  • The Amazing Blue
  • etc...

Peñas and supporters of Getafe outside of Spain:

  • Bandera de Venezuela Peña Rumbera of Caracas, of blue fans in the capital of Venezuela.
  • Bandera del Reino Unido Peña Fulham Branch Getafe, home in London and created by Fulham F.C. fans.
  • Bandera del Reino Unido Peña Getafense Scotland.
  • Bandera de Japón Peña Getafense Tokyo.
  • Bandera de México Peña Mexicana Getafe C.F.
  • Bandera de Arabia Saudita Peña Azul Arabia.
  • Bandera de Argentina Getafe C.F. Argentina.
  • Bandera de Polonia Getafe Polska.

Most of the Getafe C.F. are associated with the Federation of Peñas de Getafe C.F. which in turn has been associated since 2000 with AFEPE – Aficiones Unidas, Association of Spanish Supporters Clubs Federations. It has the Casa del Aficionado, a place close to the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.

Lastly, it is worth noting the existence of an animation stand: "Fondo Azulón", in charge of cheering on the team in the south end. This group of fans is the product of the union, in 2017, of the "Curva Azulona" with the ultras of "Comandos Azules", founded in 1994 and made up of about 40 members.

Rivalries

Its main rival is the team from the nearest municipality, C. D. Leganés. Historically known as the Madrid South Derby, matches between Getafe C.F. and C. D. Leganés have had the maximum expectation from the fans of both clubs, dating back this rivalry since the existence of Club Getafe Deportivo. This struggle also continued between the subsidiary, Getafe "B", and C. D. Leganés for a few years, while both competed in 2nd division B.

After the promotion of Leganés in 2016 and the subsequent express promotion of Getafe in 2017, the Derbi del Sur de Madrid is experienced for the first time in the First Division. This historic event for the fans of both clubs ends with victory of the Getafense team as a visiting team.
