[edit] History
[edit] Supporters
Cádiz fans are called "cadistas". They are quite famous among the country for being among the friendliest and most jovial, being voted Spain's best fans (ahead of Andalusian neighbours Sevilla FC in a recent survey. Despite the population of the city of Cádiz being only 120,000, the stadium has sold out every match for four consecutive years. Unlike in other stadiums, supporters cheer opposition teams and players and sing songs such as, "Alcohol, alcohol, alcohol! We came here to get drunk and the result doesn't matter!"<ref>Lowe, Sid. "Adiós, Cádiz", The Guardian, March 27, 2006. Retrieved on 2006-03-29.</ref>
Cádiz supporters often sing the French National Anthem due to historical links they have with France (In the early ages French Celts migrated to Cádiz to form what is now their local population). During their football matches, most famously a match between Cádiz and Fc Barcelona in 2005/2006 league season when La Marseillaise was ringing around the stadium.

[edit] 2006-2007 Season
After the departure of former coach Victor Esparrago in the close season, Cadiz cult hero "Oli" was named the new coach for 2006/07. The former striker wasted no time in signing players capable of a second promotion in three years as De Paula signed from Sociedad, and Nano arrived from Getafe.
After being installed as one of the favourites for promotion Cadiz started in stylish fashion, beating promoted Vecinadrio in the opening fixture at the Carranza, with a hat-trick from star striker Lucas Lobos. The 3-0 win however was followed by a mixed trip to the Canaries as Tenerife were beaten despite an injury to Lucas Lobos, which rules him out for several weeks. In the absence of Lobos, Cadiz failed to beat well fancied Murcia at the Carranza which sparked a losing streak that has put Cadiz well down in the segunda table.
An away defeats to Almería and Salamanca (including the loss of influential youngster Javier Acuna) were followed my a no show at the Carranza against Castellon which sparked prostests agmongst angry cadistas in the Carranza stand. The pressure on manager Oli was furthered with Cadiz crashing out of the Copa del Rey, again losing out to Castellon. In a crucial game for his future Oli managed to inspire his team to a 1-0 victory at a potential tricky away trip to Alicante where they faced Hercules but failed to string together double wins at home to Alaves, who were releagted along with Cadiz the previous season. Two points from three games at home were seen by cadistas as the main failing point, but after a 4-1 defeat at in form Albacete, away form was again called into question, along with manager Oli's future.
The trip of fellow surprise strugglers Numancia to the Carranza, a potentially tricky tie for Los Amarillos, was settled by summer signing Nano as Cadiz briefly eased the pressure on the manager before the away trip to Sporting Gijon. However, further defensive problems saw Cadiz leak 5 goals in a 5-4 defeat, which cost Oli his job. Immediately Jose Gonzalez (Previously manager in 2003) was installed as the new boss and began his reign with a disappointing 0-0 draw with Las Palmas. Despite the poor start, positives could be taken by the clean sheet, from a defence which was a shambles a week earlier. Los Amarillos needed to continue the solid start under Gonzalez in Murica in a potenetially tricky tie against Ciudad. The team put in a very confident performance but defence problems returned as Cadiz conceded a sloppy last minute goal to deny them the three poins after De Paula had put them ahead.
Poli Ejido up next at the Carranza in a must win game for promotion credentials before the eagerly awaited trip to fierce rivals Xrez, flying high on top.
