Yes, I come from Primera Regional

I see that some people, over by La Caleta, are asking Xerez fans what it felt like to be in Primera Regional. And I, who over the years find it ever harder to bow my head and keep quiet, cannot help but reply.

That we hit rock bottom, we will not deny. Eighteen years in which life has been very hard for some and beautiful for others. But, as fate would have it, our paths have crossed again.

With a 1% chance and 99% faith. Because if there is one thing Xerez fans have never done, it is stop believing.

And that is the strongest weapon of a fanbase that has become indestructible where love hurt the most, swallowing disappointments and even putting up with the laughter of those who were signing our death certificate.

Some of us who will live this #XerezCádiz used to answer, with pride, that much-repeated "look what you've been reduced to" with a "but we are still alive".

So be careful, because now that the whole of Spain is starting to notice, we have come to prove it.
