Sociedad Deportiva Compostela is a Spanish football team based in Santiago de Compostela, in the autonomous community of Galicia. Founded on 26 June 1962 it plays in Segunda División B – Group 1, holding home matches at ''Estadio Multiusos de San Lázaro''. ==History== Founded in 1962, Compostela spent the better part of that and the following decades playing regional football. Its first promotion to a semi-national stage occurred in 1977, with a promotion to Segunda División B (Group 1), which lasted just one season; ''Compos'' promoted again in 1980, this time lasting six years. Relegation in 1986 was compounded by off-field controversy surrounding the actions of then president Francisco Steppe. He resigned amid allegations of receipt of payments to throw a game against Pontevedra CF, which would assure the opposition's maintenance in the category. The late 1980s saw a significant restructuring of the club both at board and management levels and, in 1990, Compostela regained third-level status. The following campaign was to prove the club's most successful to date. On 23 June 1991, a capacity crowd of 8,000 at the ''Estadio Municipal Santa Isabel'', saw goals from Juanito and Ochoa (two) clinch a 3–1 victory in the final play-off match against CD Badajoz, for a first-ever Segunda División visit. The move to ''Estadio Multiusos de San Lázaro'' coincided with the continuing rise in the team’s fortunes and, at the end of 1993–94, following a 3–1 play-off victory against Rayo Vallecano, Compostela reached La Liga. For a small regional club it did remarkably well, and reached a best finish of 10th in 1995–96, mainly courtesy of strikers Christopher Ohen and Bent Christensen, whom totalled 23 league goals. After four seasons at the top, Compostela was relegated after losing a relegation play-off match to Villarreal CF on the away goals rule, despite playing overall attractive football. The club was also about to start a downward spiral; after a relegation to the third level in 2001 the team returned the following year but, in the following campaign, played to a backdrop of off-field distractions, with the players and staff going unpaid for months – a final ninth place was not enough to prevent another relegation, as the club failed to meet the 31 July deadline to settle all wage debts.〔(SD Compostela, el primer equipo de Galicia (SD Compostela, Galicia's first team) ); Notas de Fútbol, 20 December 2005 〕 Off-field problems continued in 2003–04, with the pinnacle being the players, who had not been paid in several months, refusing to appear for a fixture at UB Conquense, with the subsequent loss of three points. At the season's close, after the actual relegation, Compostela dropped further to the ''Galician Regional Preferente'' (north) after failing again to meet the financial deadline. Compostela's rise and decline has been mirrored by other regional clubs such as CF Extremadura, Granada CF and Mérida UD. In the 2007–08 season, however, the club won its regional league and returned to ''Tercera'' once again. In the following campaign, after finishing first in its group, the team beat Atlético Monzón with a 4–2 aggregate (3–0, 1–2) and won a second consecutive promotion. However, this would be a short-lived return, with relegation befalling at the season's end, immediately followed by another one due to overwhelming financial problems. Longtime president José María Caneda left the club.〔(Caneda se autoproclama presidente del Compostela (Caneda self-appointed Compostela president) ); El Correo Gallego, 7 September 2006 〕〔(Caneda habla de amaños de partidos y de ‘burlar’ a Hacienda (Caneda talks about match-fixing and ‘dribbling’ the IRS) ); El Correo Gallego, 21 November 2012 〕 Finally Compostela made successive 2 promotions between 2011 and 2013 and climbed to third level. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SD Compostela」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
