Kome back but injured
Kome was back at training yesterday but has an injured leg muscle and it is questionable if he will play on Saturday.
There were more than 200 people waiting to buy seats for Saturdays game this morning in Santa Cruz. The game is expected to sell out.
In interviews yesterday in the press room at the Heliodoro Rodríguez López Stadium Carlos Bellvis stated "I can see a very competitive team and we are capable of staying up. The fans always help us. On Saturday I hope the Helidoro will be full and am sure the fans will be ther to support us on hundred percent". When asked abou Sevilla Bellvis commented that they were a great team with many great players especially their forwards. "We know that a simple error could cost us the game. So we will need to be very concentrated from the first minute onwards."
Sergio Aragoneses started his interview by commenting that they were talking about a very complicated rival, a team that in the last few years has always been in European competitions. "That said," he continued "it is a game that anyone could win. We need to make the most of our chances as they present themselves. We need to go all out to win because the best would be if those three points stay here at home." To conclude he confirmed that the support of the fans will be very very necessary.
Miguel Concepción again affirmed that nothing had been discussed about paying the players an extra payment if they stayed in the first division. He said the players hadn't asked for anything all they need is to go out and win the 45 points the club needed to stay up.

Tickets for Sevilla game go on sale.
Tickets go on sale this morning for the game on Saturday. Sevilla are third in the league, but Capel is away with the under 21's and Adriano Correia has problems with his stomach muscles. We will see what is to be. Of the 14 visits from Sevilla in Tenerife CDT has won half the games.
In a Player interview yesterday Roman Martinez stated that the team wanted to gift a win against Sevilla FC to the fans.
The club has just employed ex referee from the Primera Division, Manuel Ángel Pérez Lima, to help with technical advice for the players and coaches.
The president of CD Tenerife, Miguel Concepción in an interview on Radio COPE yesterday (Tuesday) covered various points of interest. He stated that he would have liked the team to have won the round in the Copa Del Rey but it wasn't possible and now the team needs to look forward and try to reach the 45 points that we need to stay in the first division. He commented that this is not going to be easy but everyone is confident that the team will get there. He also spoke of the attempt to try to raise the number of shares that members need to go to the AGM, He stated that what they wnated to do was within company law and there would be a vote to see if thiswas what the shareholders wanted. When asked about the number of delegates he confirmed that the club was looking for a maximum of seven and a minimum of five. Lastly he talked about the timing of games he has been in meetings with the president and vicepresident of the LFP( Spanish professional football league) and now needs to talk to Media Pro representative Jaume Roures where he hopes to come to a solution which respects the Canarian time difference. He asks that they respect the times in the league and that we are not asking for a favor just that the team is treated the same as every other team.
Cristo Marrero an ex CDT player who was on the Island took the time to pass by training yesterday to visit the team and the trainers.

Positive thoughts
Although it is hard right now I need to think positively or I will be sad.
Thoughts include the comentator for the weekend game who after the goals encouraged the fans to shout the name of the players who had scored. This is new and created a great extra element for the fans.
Omar has been called up for the Spanish under 21's and will be part of the squad who goes to play against Finland, this Friday; & Holland, on Tuesday the 17 de november.
Marc Bertran has announced that he hopes to be back for the Barcelona game at the begining of January.
In an interview with Eziquel Luna he stated, " We are out of the cup and need to concentrate on the league.We need to get better, all the players in many ways. We need to continue working. We are all pulling in the same direction, we are great collegues. We need to stay calm and continue to work together. You can understand that the fans are cross but between us all we will pull through." When asked about his own playing he answered, "I am really fed up as the things are not coming the way I would like them. It hurts when people talk badly about you, but I know I made mistakes."
However he plays it is wrong to do what 3 fans aparently did after the Celta game. They aparently were waiting outside the stadium and when he came out of the stadium with his wife and child were exceptionally nasty. The club aparently has this on camera and is following it up.
The players are of today and back in the Mundialito tomorrow at 10 am and the same time and place on Saturday . Then off Sunday.

Hasta la muerte
This was the phrase I came away form the game with. After the Celta goal the whole stand was destroyed. The only sounds to be heard were a minute later from the Singing stand where this is what they sung. I don't know the whole song but these words were the ones we could hear. And they describe how I feel. The translate in this instance to Until death do us part the good times and the bad times CDT is my team. This was a bad game we had a great chance which wasn't converted into a goal. The ball came all the way up but there were almost no shots on goal and those that were near went wide.
We came away sad but as ever making excuses. " two competitions would have been too much", "We didn't pick up until after the winter break last year" and "its a shame Kome wasn't there" were heard on the walk back to the car. All those are true and there was nothing wrong with them but the game was bad. Nino is clearly nervous and it is a pity but at least he gave his all when he came on, no one can ask for more then that he tries.
They have 10 days break for internationals and I hope that they can try to get back some of the spark we saw at the begining of the season. It must be hard to struggle week in week out.

2-2 draw
Saturdays game was a draw the first draw of the season. It could have been better as the team played exceptionally in the first 20 minutes. But it could have been worse as well, Malaga played hard and we were very innocent in our playing.
Game details include:
11th round of the Liga BBVA, of the first Spanish league. Estadio Heliodoro Rodríguez López. 17.761 spectators. Warm afternoon, with light breeze. The Tenerife Players had black armbands in memory of ex player Erasto León, recently passed away, a minutes silence was held.
The cup tie is tomorrow night at 7pm.
Celta de Vigo actually have part of their website in English. I was looking for their travel details and was surprised by this. It is something for CDT to aim for. I am amazed when I talk to visitors how many of them follow Tenerife from their home country.
They have a great photo of the stadium on their news site here

I didn't forget
It wasn't that I forgot you on Saturday but the hotel has no internet connection so even if I had blogged I would have had no way to get it too you
I wanted to say thanks for all the birthday greetings I received on facebook.
We have no owners meal tonight as there was very little take up for it even with over 20 owner families arriving but I am sure we will do better next week. Tony and Rita, have already booked and I am sure more will join in.
It is really great when owners support the resort in this way. And it allows them to meet each other. The meals are somthing we have been running since autumn 2002. We have though about changing the menu this year so maybe we will for the new year. What do you think?
The sun is shining and it is still unseasonably warm.
Have a great day.

Plainful loss
That Villareal is a good team was never in doubt but they have not played very well this season so far. I had hoped this would last until after we layed them but it was not to be. A 5-0 loss hurts. There will always be games like this and they are not a direct rival but still it hurts. The internet is full of negative comments. I think fans sometimes forget it is our role to support in the good times and the bad ones. I loathe when some Spanish fans wave white hankies to show their disaproval for the players. It is games like these when we will see who supports Tenerife and who supports Tenerife a team in the first division. Next Saturday we are at home at 5pm and will need all the support we can get against a direct rival. I hope the stadium will be busy but I am sure the fans who are there will make enough noise how ever many we are.
The game stats are as follows.
VILLARREAL CF 1 (1)
CD TENERIFE 0 (0)
VILLARREAL CF
Diego López; Javi Venta, Godín, Marcano, Capdevila; Cani, Bruno, Eguren, Pires (Escudero, 76'); Rossi (David Fuster, 69’) & Llorente (Jonathan Pereira, 64’).
CD TENERIFE
Aragoneses; Aitor Núñez (Dinei, 56’), Manolo Martínez, Sicilia, Bellvís; Juanlu, Román, Alfaro, Ricardo, Omar; (Saiza, 83’) & Nino.
REFEREE
Fernández Borbalán, Andaluz. Yellow card for Llorente.
GOALS
1-0: (15’) Llorente. 2-0: (47’) Pires. 3-0: (50’) Rossi. 4-0: (51’) Llorente. 5-0: (88‘) Cani.
INCIDENTS
Stadium El Madrigal. Ground in good condition. Warm afternoon. 8.000 Spectators.
Team interviews included:
Pablo Sicilia: “Now is not the moment to blame the defense, it is the moment to look forward, to make conclusions and correct errors. I don't believe the team was uninvolved, we always go out to fight, but somtimes your rival is better then you, as we saw in the second half. The wosrst was certainly the start of the second half”.
Juanlu: “In the second half we were not so good, but in the first half we deserved more. We got into the game and had chances. In the second half the goals came very quickly and we were left unable to react. They came back very strong”.
José Luis Oltra was sad for the loss suffered by the team. He lamented the good play of the players had not yet resulted in an away win. “It has been a punishment. Our rival today had the luck they have been missing up to now. We plyed well in the first half, controlling the game and we had chances. In the second half, in seven minutes, they scored three goals and the game was over. It was a pity, but we need to go on”.
When asked about the teams lack of away points, Oltra explained that “without doubt the home wins are great. Away we make a great showing but haven't yet converted that into points. We have received a lot of goals. I repeat there is nothing else but to go on”.
“In the first half we were the better team and had a lot of chances. Hoy nos medíamos ante un rival de mucho potencial, hecho para estar más arriba”, añadió.
“El equipo ha salido a competir y en el descanso hemos hablado de mejorar. We should count the first half and not the missed chances. The team went out to fight. The 2-0 came very quickly and this caused us a lot of damage. I had told the players we shouldn't receive a second goal”. He continued “This game is nothing like the game we lost in Vigo. The way we lost last Wednesday in the cup hurts me a lo more than this afternoon”.
