history

Farul Constanța was founded as Locomotiva Constanța in 1949 when the two clubs Dezrobirea Constanța and PCA Constanța merged. Locomotiva took the place of PCA in Divizia B , the second highest division in Romania. In the 1955 season Locomotiva played for the first time in Divizia A, but rose again immediately.

In 1957 the Farul Stadium in Constanța was built. The club then changed its name to Farul Constanța (German: lighthouse ) in 1958 and was promoted to Divizia A again in the same year. In the 1959/60 season , Farul achieved his best final placement to date with 4th place. In the following season, the team was relegated, but managed to get promoted again in 1962. In the 1960s, Farul was placed in the top 6 three times: 1962/63 , 1966/67 and 1969/70 . 1966 Farul reached the final in the Balkan Cup for club teams, but lost in the final against Rapid Bucharest .

In 1972 the club changed its name to FC Constanța . After relegation in 1978 , FC Constanța played for ten years - apart from a two-year interlude from 1981 to 1983 in Divizia A - in Divizia B. It was not until 1988, after the club's name was changed to FC Farul Constanța, that it was promoted to Divizia A.

After relegation in 2000, he was immediately promoted again under coach Petre Grigoraş after FCM Bacau could be defeated in the relegation games. In 2005 Farul celebrated the greatest success in the club's history: in addition to the 5th place in Divizia A, the team reached the Romanian cup final, but lost just short to Dinamo Bucharest . From 1958 until his relegation after the 2008/09 season , the club appeared in the top Romanian league for a total of 39 years.

The rise should be tackled with the new financier Giani Nedelcu and the new coach Marius Șumudică , who signed a two-year contract on July 6, 2009. A first dismissal Șumudicăs after the 1: 4 away defeat on October 3, 2009 against FC Botoșani was withdrawn shortly thereafter, but after the 0-1 bankruptcy on November 14, 2009 at CSM Râmnicu Sărat , the coach had his chair at Farul finally vacate and was replaced by Gheorghe Butoiu . At the end of December 2009, Ștefan Stoica took over as coach, but was released on April 3, 2010 and again replaced by interim coach Butoiu. By the end of the season, Farul had built up such a mountain of debt that he was on the verge of liquidation.

In August 2010, the 64-year-old Ioan Sdrobiș was hired as head coach. But just five months later, on January 22, 2011, he terminated his contract because the club lacked the necessary financial support to pay the players' salaries and put together a powerful team. His successor until the end of the season was Gheorghe Butoiu , who had already jumped in as an interim coach in the past. In June 2011, Marian Diaconescu, the previous club president, handed over his office to the former referee Marcel Lică, who had already held this position between 2002 and 2004. In early July 2011, Giani Nedelcu, the club's patron, brought in Marian Pană a new head coach, who signed a one-year contract, but left the club on December 1, 2011 in the direction of CS Mioveni . On January 9, 2012, Viorel Tănase , who had resigned from league competitor Dunărea Galați three days earlier , was introduced as the new coach.
