Real Sociedad #1 Terug in de Primera División

[Plato]

Real Sociedad uit de Baskische stad San Sebastián is dankzij de titel in de Segunda División teruggekeerd in de Primera División. Na drie jaar afwezigheid is de Spaanse kampioen van 1981 en 1982 daarmee weer op het niveau waar het volgens praktisch iedereen thuishoort.

Clubgeschiedenis

Early history Football was introduced to San Sebastián in the early 1900s by students and workers returning from Britain. In 1904 they formed the San Sebastian Recreation Club and in 1905 they competed in the Copa del Rey. In May 1905 the San Sebastian Football Club was formed as a separate branch of the club. In 1909 they applied to enter the Copa del Rey but complications over registration permits saw them compete as Club Ciclista de San Sebastian. This team beat Club Español de Madrid 3-1 in the final. Out of the confusion the Sociedad de Futbol was formed on September 7, 1909. In 1910 Spanish clubs played in two rival cup competitions and Sociedad de Futbol entered the Copa UECF as Vasconia de San Sebastian. In the same year the King Alfonso XIII, who used San Sebastián as his summer capital, gave the club his patronage. They subsequently became known as Real Sociedad de Fútbol. Real Sociedad were founder members of La Liga in 1928. The team came fourth with Francisco "Paco" Bienzobas finishing as top scorer. The team's name was changed to Donostia Club de Futbol in 1931, with the advent of the Second Spanish Republic, but changed back to Real Sociedad after the Spanish Civil War in 1939. The team has generally fluctuated between the Primera and Segunda divisions, in one period (during the 1940s) managing to be relegated and promoted seven times. Around that time the sculptor Eduardo Chillida was the team's goalkeeper until injury put a stop to his football career. The success of the 1980s The best period of the team's history must be the early 1980s where they won the Primera two seasons running. For many years, Real Sociedad followed the practice of their Basque rivals Athletic Bilbao of signing only Basque players. They abandoned the policy in 1989 when they signed Irish international John Aldridge from Liverpool. La Liga 2002-2003 Real Sociedad's best league performance in recent years is their 2nd place finish in La Liga in 2002-03. Key contributors to that side included a Serb (Darko Kovačević), two Turk (Nihat Kahveci and Tayfun Korkut), a Russian (Valeri Karpin), a Dutch goalkeeper (Sander Westerveld), and Spanish home-grown talent Xabi Alonso, Coached by French manager Raynald Denoueix . Key moments from that season came when Real Sociedad beat Real Madrid in April 4-2 at the Anoeta in San Sebastián. They kept first place in La Liga until matchday 37 when they were due to play Celta de Vigo in a match that ended up 3-2 in favor of Celta, while on the other hand Real Madrid has beaten city rival Atletico Madrid 4-0, this meant that the team from Madrid secured first place two points clear Real Sociedad just ahead of the last matchday of the season when a 3-0 Sociedad victory against Atletico Madrid was just not enough because Real Madrid has just secured another victory against Athletic Bilbao. The team quailfied directly for the UEFA Champions League 2003–04 by finishing 2nd, they ended up unbeaten at home with 71 goals scored and defeated on 6 occasions only. Strikers Nihat and Kovačević finished 2nd and 3rd respectively on the Pichichi chart with 23 and 20 goals. Relegation While they still attempt to keep a core of Basque players, whether coming from their own teams or signed from other clubs, they will also employ non-Basque Spanish players, as well as foreigners. They were relegated from La Liga in 2006–2007, finishing 19th. On 9 July 2007, former Welsh international and Fulham manager Chris Coleman was appointed as the new club coach, on the recommendation of former Real Sociedad (and current Welsh National team) manager John Toshack, who remains a respected and influential figure at the club. Coleman resigned on January 16, 2008. On 13th June 2010, Real Sociedad returns to La Liga.

COMUNICADO OFICIAL: PRINCIPIO DE ACUERDO CON EL AJAX PARA EL TRASPASO DE SARPONG La Real Sociedad y el Ajax han llegado a un principio de acuerdo para el traspaso de Jeffrey Sarpong a nuestro club. Asimismo la Real Sociedad ha alcanzado un acuerdo con el jugador para su incorporación para las tres próximas temporadas.

Spaans avontuur lonkt voor overbodige Sarpong Na Robbie Wielaert staat Jeffrey Sarpong aan de vooravond van een vertrek uit Amsterdam. Real Sociedad bereikte met Ajax een principeakkoord over de overbodige middenvelder. Sociedad, dat afgelopen seizoen de terugkeer naar de Primera División bewerkstelligde, kwam niet alleen tot een vergelijk met Ajax. Ook met Sarpong is de Spaanse club er uit. Een driejarig contract ligt ter ondertekening klaar in Sociedad. Sarpong speelde afgelopen seizoen op huurbasis voor NEC, maar hoefde bij terugkeer in Amsterdam niet te rekenen op veel speeltijd. In Spanje krijgt de middenvelder de kans meer aan spelen toe te komen. Ajax is daarmee opnieuw een speler kwijt die niet in de plannen voorkomt van trainer Martin Jol. Wielaert rondde zaterdag zijn tijdelijke verhuizing naar Roda JC af.

Leuke club voor Sarpong, ben benieuwd of ie aan spelen toe komt.

Jeffrey Sarpong heeft vandaag gescoord voor Sociedad, na twee weken geleden ook al bij het doelpunt betrokken te zijn geweest. Helaas voor Sociedad mocht zijn doelpunt niet baten aangezien er in Valencia met 2-1 verloren werd van Levante. Bij winst had Sociedad enige afstand van de degradatiezone kunnen nemen, nu is dat niet gelukt.

3-0 gewonnen vanavond tegen Deportivo

Sarpong mocht weer invallen.

Wat staat er op de teller van Sarpong tot nu toe? 2 goals, 1 assist?
