The first SC Wiener Neustadt was a Austrian football club from Wiener Neustadt in Lower Austria .

history

The association was founded in 1908 by the Viennese students Emmerich Sommer , Franz Eichler , Julius Bendek as well as Alois and Hans Meszaros with the club colors blue and white. The then loose game associations SC Edelweiß and FC Graphia were merged into the new football club .

1908-1936

From 1923 to 1926 , the 1st Wiener Neustädter Sportclub became Lower Austrian regional champions four times in a row, the greatest possible success for a Lower Austrian amateur club at the time. In the 1935/36 season the club was again Lower Austrian regional champion and thus qualified for the Austrian amateur state championship .

In the first round the 1. Wiener Neustädter SC lost the away game against the Styrian champions SK Sturm Graz with 1: 6, but progressed one round with a 6: 0 win in the second leg. Against the Burgenland representative SC Hutter & Schrantz Pinkafeld , the Lower Austrians clearly prevailed 6: 2 and 2: 0 and thus reached the final. There the Tyrolean national champion Innsbrucker AC was clearly inferior to them. The Wiener Neustädter won 3-2 and 6-0 and became Austrian amateur state champions for the first time .

1937-1945

The national championship title of 1936/37 was followed by competing in the amateur championship. The Lower Austrians survived the first round only by drawing lots after a 1: 2 and 2: 1 against the Styrian national champion SV Donawitz . In the second round, 1. Wiener Neustädter SC narrowly lost 2: 5 and 4: 2 against the eventual winner Post SV Wien .

After professionalism was banned during the National Socialist era, the 1. Wiener Neustädter SC could theoretically move up to the highest league in the state . The 1. Wiener Neustädter SC, however, failed in 1938 at city rivals ESV Wacker Wiener Neustadt and only finished second with three points behind, while the latter moved into Gauliga XVII. In the following season, too, they only finished second in the newly founded district class East, which was now one of the second levels. In the final of the Niederdonau championship, the club was defeated by LSV Markersdorf an der Pielach in the 1941/42 season and again missed qualifying for the top division.

1946-1959

The official re-establishment after the Second World War took place on February 2, 1946; however, a competitive team was formed in 1945, which again won the national championship title in 1945/46 . In 1950 the first SC Wiener Neustadt captured the next Lower Austrian provincial championship, and after hard qualifiers against the Burgenland ASV Siegsdorf and the Styrian ESV Austria Graz followed as a reward, the rise in the State League A . There the club only finished 12th and penultimate rank and had to relegate to the now established State League B.

In 1951/52 the Wiener Neustädter qualified with the 3rd place in the second stage for the promotion relegation to the State League A against the Westmaster Salzburger AK 1914 . A 3: 3 at home was not enough after the first game was lost 2: 5 away. The following years brought places in the midfield, until finally in the season 1958/59 with the famous former national player Adolf Huber as coach of the championship title in the State League B, the return to the State League A fixed.

1960-1966

The absolute highlights of the State League A season of 1959/60 were the home games against Rapid , Austria and the Wiener Sport-Club , where the stadium was overcrowded with over 10,000 spectators each time. At the end of the season, the club reached 8th place. After relegation in the following season, the Lower Austrians immediately won the championship title of the Regionalliga Ost and secured their place in the top division again for the years 1963/64 to 1966/67 .

Another highlight was reaching the Austrian final in the ÖFB Cup in 1965 under the renowned coach Adolf Patek , which the team lost 2-1 to LASK Linz . Since the Linzers also won the championship title this season, the 1st Wiener Neustädter SC was allowed to compete in the European Cup winners for the first time . Wiener Neustadt, however, was eliminated in the first round against the Romanian representative Știința Cluj ( Klausenburg ).

1967-1998

After relegation from the top division ( 1966/67 ), the club played in the second tier (until 1974 Regionalliga Ost, from 1975 2nd division). At the end of the 1980/81 season , they were relegated to the third level ( Regionalliga Ost ), where they stayed until the 1992/93 season.

In 1993/94 and 1994/95 the Lower Austrians played in the 2nd division again, but then had to go back to the regional league. There the club was able to hold until the 1997/98 season , before it had to relegate to the fourth division, the Lower Austrian regional league, for the first time in the club's history.

1999-2009

The club first played from 1998/99 to 2003/04 in the Lower Austrian regional league before relegating to the 2nd Lower Austrian regional league east. The club played there up to and including the 2008/09 season.

resolution

At the end of 2008 it was decided that after the end of the 2008/09 season, FC Magna Wiener Neustadt should take over the teams of the First Wiener Neustädter SC. The association was officially dissolved on April 27, 2010.
