History

After the disappearance of CD Manchego in 2000, Manchego CF was created. In July 2009, after six seasons in the fourth division, the club was in risk of being dissolved due to its outstanding debts,[http://www.latribunadeciudadreal.net/noticia.cfm/Deportes/20090721/borron/cuenta/nueva/99E43B8F-1A64-968D-59B36790EFEA0846 Borrón y cuenta nueva (Wiping the slate clean)] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090723002109/http://www.latribunadeciudadreal.net/noticia.cfm/Deportes/20090721/borron/cuenta/nueva/99E43B8F-1A64-968D-59B36790EFEA0846 |date=2009-07-23 }}; La Tribuna, 21 July 2009 {{in lang|es}} which reached €1.5 million.[http://www.eldiadeciudadreal.com/noticia.php/15175 El Manchego se hace el hara-kiri (Manchego does hara-kiri)]; El Día de Ciudad Real, 11 July 2009 {{in lang|es}}

After Manchego CF supporters decided the club should continue, the president was forced to resign and, a day later, a new club, CD Ciudad Real was created.[http://www.abc.es/agencias/noticia.asp?noticia=56411 Nace el Deportivo Ciudad Real (Deportivo Ciudad Real is born)]; ABC, 21 July 2009 {{in lang|es}}[http://www.eldiadeciudadreal.com/noticia.php/15332 Habrá fútbol; nace el CD Ciudad Real (There will be football; CD Ciudad Real is born)]; El Día de Ciudad Real, 21 July 2009 {{in lang|es}} 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.[http://www.ffcm.es/pnfg/NNws_ShwNewDup?codigo=1003894&cod_primaria=1000057&cod_secundaria=1000057 El Manchego es descendido de categoría (Manchego is relegated)]; FFCM, 25 August 2009 {{in lang|es}}[http://crsport.es/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=835:el-manchego-nos-se-inscribe-en-preferente&catid=18&Itemid=28 El Manchego no se inscribe en Preferente (Manchego does not sign up in Preferente)]; CRSport, 26 August 2009 {{in lang|es}}
