# Burgos CF

Burgos Club de Fútbol, S.A.D. is a Spanish football team based in Burgos, in the autonomous community of Castile and León.
The original Burgos CF was dissolved in 1983 after becoming insolvent as a result of its 1980 relegation from the first division. The current Burgos CF was founded in 1985 under the name Club Deportivo Burgos Club de Fútbol, although they did not start competing until 1994.
Burgos CF currently competes in the Segunda División, holding home matches at the Estadio El Plantío, with a capacity of 12,646.

## History
### Early years

Burgos CF was founded in 1922, also known as Gimnástica Burgalesa Club de Fútbol.
After four consecutive seasons in Primera División, the club was relegated in the 1979/80 season. In these last two seasons at the top level, notable players included midfielder Miguel Ángel Portugal and defender Antonio García Navajas, both of whom later signed with Real Madrid. Some of the most important coaches during this period were Arsenio Iglesias and Lucien Müller. In 1978, José María Quintano Vadillo replaced Antonio Martínez Laredo as president.
After two seasons in Segunda División, the club suffered a severe financial crisis, which led to their administrative relegation to Segunda División B in the 1981/82 season due to non-payment of players, despite having finished in eighth place.
In the following 1982/83 season, already in Segunda División B, the team finished 3rd in Group I, but the financial situation was unsustainable. Quintano Vadillo was replaced by Bárcena Castrillo as president, and on May 24, 1983, in an Extraordinary General Meeting presided over by Miguel Jerez, the dissolution of the club was agreed.
At that time, the reserve team, Burgos Promesas, had just been promoted to Tercera División, and it was decided to separate it from Burgos CF, allowing it to continue competing as Real Burgos Club de Fútbol. The side participated three seasons in the national top flight but, shortly after its 1993 relegation, ceased in activity, and Burgos CF was immediately refounded.

### 1994–present

In 1994, the new Burgos CF started to play in Primera Provincial, sixth tier, with Félix Arnaiz as head coach. Arnaiz would reach the Tercera División after two consecutive promotions. In 1997 the club promoted for the first time to Segunda División B. After a doubtful first year, where the club avoided relegation in the last weeks of the competition, Burgos CF started to qualify to the promotion play-offs to Segunda División. It would be in 2001, in its third try, when the club would reach its target after defeating Sabadell, Ceuta and Ourense in the play-offs.
In the 2001–02 season, with Enrique Martín as head coach, Burgos would finish 16th but they would be relegated to Segunda División B due to the non-conversion of the club into a Sociedad Anónima Deportiva.
After this administrative relegation, Burgos would continue playing in Segunda División B, being very close to promotion in the 2007 play-offs, where they were beaten by Sevilla Atlético in extra time of the last round. One year later, the club would be relegated to Tercera División after failing to beat CF Palencia in the last round. The match finished a draw that relegated both teams.
Burgos would spend three seasons in Tercera División after its promotion in the 2011 play-offs, where they beat UD Lanzarote by 4–0 in the second leg played at El Plantío. The promotion was followed by a disastrous campaign in the 2011–12 Segunda División B where the club finished as last qualified of the Group 1.
Only one year later, Burgos CF promoted again to the third tier by beating CD El Palo 3–2 in the second leg of the 2013 play-offs.
On 19 June 2017, one month after avoiding the relegation to Tercera División by winning Linares Deportivo in the play-offs, the assembly of Burgos CF approved the conversion of the club into Sociedad Anónima Deportiva, 16 years later after the first frustrated attempt. The club would achieve this goal on 6 April 2018.
On 4 June 2019, Burgos CF signed an affiliation agreement with CD Nuestra Señora de Belén, for acting as its women's football section.
In 2020–21, Burgos won their group and gained promotion to the second division, 19 years since their last appearance, after defeating Bilbao Athletic in the promotion play-off finals.
