It was no fairy-tale season though; Recre finished bottom of the table and were relegated, with only 21 points from 34 games. They won just 8 games all season, 7 of those at home.

The 2000s was a golden age for Recre, but it nearly didn't happen.
The club was relegated to the 3rd tier in 1999/2000, but Atleti's relegation to the 2nd tier meant the Atleti reserve team was ejected. Recre kept its place and in 2002 was promoted to La Liga

Again, like in '78/79, the league campaign of 02/03 didn't go well. After waiting until November for a first win, Recre were relegated with only 8 wins in 38 games.
However, this season was all about the Copa del Rey. Remarkably, Recre made it to the final
