Álvaro Cervera recalls bitter Castellón exit on Tenerife return | OneFootball

Álvaro Cervera returns to Castalia on Saturday carrying lingering resentment over how his 2005 promotion with CD Castellón ended. The Tenerife head coach says he was not even thanked when he left.

According to El Periódico Mediterráneo, the coach who took Castellón up to Segunda A in 2005 barely had time to enjoy it. The club’s sale to Castellnou2005 brought his albinegro tenure to an abrupt close.

Cervera reflects on that success with more bitterness than nostalgia. He says the joy was fleeting, promotion from Segunda B to Segunda A quickly gave way to departure.

He recalls ownership changing the next day and that he never went back. He says it felt as if he had never been there.

Tenerife’s visit also returns others with albinegro past, Marc Mateu in blue and white and Jesús de Miguel. The trio will try to halt Pablo Hernández’s Castellón, leaders of Segunda with 13 points from 15 after a comeback against Girona.
