Osasuna played 14 followed in the XXI century between 2000 and the 2014 to go down this year and be in 2015 with one foot in Second B. They were saved with a goal at the minute 93. Villarreal reached the 2000 and its only moon was its decline in 2012. The rest assiduous among 6 first in the league.
3. Málaga, depose, Mallorca and Atletico Madrid (13 seasons). Malaguistas have completed a successful tour playing European competition several times and have lost only two seasons of 15 played so far. Depor won the league in 2000 and it was a cockerel in the first editions accumulating several subchampionships. Everything changed in 2011 when it suffered its first decline to do so again in 2013 and saved from miracle 2015. Something like Mallorca played 13 followed and descended to Second where it suffers economic problems. Atletico Madrid began in hell and rose 2002. Since then he has returned to be a big win even League 2014 among other titles.

5. Zaragoza, Racing, and Getafe (11 seasons). Zaragoza, one of the 10 best teams historically has become an elevator in the 21st century accumulating relegations and promotions, adding still 11 of the 15 in the first. Racing amounted to 2002 and he fell in 2012. Since then not getting off treading the Second and Second B. Getafe curiously has never gone down in history to Second. rose in 2004 and still in the top flight.

6. Real Betis (10 seasons). Betis is a peculiar team apart from a historical. But the twenty-first century is giving not quite right. Ten seasons in the top five in Second.

7.Real Valladolid and Celta de Vigo (9 seasons). The Pucela occupied the First Division for much of the twentieth century. In the XXI thing they have not fared all that well. As often happens in these cases, ascents and descents to take 9 seasons among the largest in the new millennium. Something similar is the case of vigueses who reached the Champions.

8-Levante (8 seasons). Granota team lives its golden age in the XXI century. In the XX, only he played two years in first half and went to the 60. He returned to first in 2004 and he fell twice in 2005 y 2008. He returned to the top flight in 2010 adding to since 5 straight seasons to reach the 8 of 15 in the XXI century establishing itself in the top flight in the new millennium.

Alaves reached the final of the UEFA 2001 but since descended not only has once again step on the first but has even gone through the Second B. Something similar to the case of the Dean, Recre, passing serious trouble and just go down to Second B.

12. Numancia (3 seasons). Numancia name came to the fore after machada in Cup final 1996. Until then little or nothing was known of soriano club. This earned him a leap in quality to make it a fixture in second and even play the first three times in the new millennium, The last in 2009. Certainly a success.

13. The Palms, Tenerife, Murcia, Elche and Albacete (2 seasons). Las Palmas began the new millennium among the best but the thing falling twisted Second B and II where he lost the ascent to First in 2014 a pretty incredible way when he was the 2 feet in First. Murcia got to touch the first two occasions and even play the play off to climb 2014 but then he was dropped administratively. similar to the case which amounted in Elche 2013 and solvency remained two seasons but 2015, It has been dropped administratively.
