Nickname: La Crema

Adopting Atlético Rafaela means Argentina Primera División results start mattering to you, a club going since 1907. Not a novelty, a habit.

Old enough to matter
1907 is the founding date, old enough that the club has survived a war, a rebuild and at least one financial scare, young enough that the good years are still in living memory.
Something to defend
The cabinet is not empty: Primera B Nacional (2): 2002–03, 2010–11 and Torneo del Interior (1): 1988–89. Small enough to recite from memory, big enough to argue about in a pub.
Proper ground
Nuevo Monumental Rafaela, Santa Fe Province takes roughly 20,660, big enough for atmosphere, small enough that you can learn where the singing corner is on your first visit.
You get a nickname
Known as La Crema. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.

Ground: Nuevo Monumental Rafaela, Santa Fe Province. Go in a day early, find the pre-match pub, buy the programme.
