FC Hispano-Bastidienne Bordeaux

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The FC Hispano-Bastidienne Bordeaux was a short-lived French football club from Bordeaux . It existed only a single season (1934/35) as a merger of the local clubs Sporting Club de la Bastidienne and Club Deportivo Español , which then - both then as amateurs - went their separate ways.

history

The history of FC Hispano-Bastidienne is essentially the story of the two clubs that formed it through their temporary merger. This was not done voluntarily, but was a union forcée , because in Bordeaux - unlike in Paris , Lille and Roubaix , which were also among the very early strongholds of football in France - according to the French association FFFA only was allowed to give a professional club.

FC Hispano-Bastidienne

This fusion club founded on June 28, 1934 played in the 1934/35 season in the second division , which he completed as bottom of the table. In 26 league games he had only managed three wins (against Le Havre AC , Racing Calais and SM Caen ) and four draws; From their away games, the south-west French brought only a single point, and that from the penultimate AS Villeurbanne . There had been arguments and jealousy between members of the two combined clubs throughout the season; the renowned English coach Victor Gibson complained early on that the ex-CDE players did not listen to him. Consequently, Gibson threw in the towel in January 1935; At the end of February, the officials who had come to Hispano-Bastidienne from CD Español resigned. Immediately after the end of the season, FC Hispano-Bastidienne voluntarily returned its professional license and dissolved again in June 1935.

In the national cup competition for the Coupe de France , Hispano-Bastidienne did not make it very far this season : although the team reached the national main round, they were eliminated 2: 3 in the thirty-second final against the amateurs of AS Brest .

SC de la Bastidienne

The club was founded in 1904 as Étoile Sportive Bastidienne ; In 1905 he took the name SC de la Bastidienne, but was officially registered as an association with the prefecture in January 1921 . It is based in the commercial district of La Bastide on the right bank of the Garonne , which for a long time was mainly inhabited by workers . In the 1919/20 season, the SC won its first title as South West France champion. During the 1920s and early 1930s, Bastidienne was number 1 in football in the city alongside VGA du Médoc and before FC Bordeaux-Bouscat, Stade Bordelais UC and EC Bordeaux; the rise of the Girondins did not begin until the late 1930s. Bastidienne was champion of the Aquitaine Division d'Honneur in 1923, 1925, 1927 and 1933 , took on professional status in 1933 and played 1933/34 in the southern group of the second division newly established for this season. However, the team only finished this in penultimate place in the table, although they had strengthened themselves with three Austrians.

In return, the club was not only represented in the main round of the regional cup between 1919 and 1934, with the exception of two seasons, but also made it into the sixteenth finals six times and three times (1928 to 1930) even into the second round in these 13 appearances. In the first half of the 1920s, La Bastidienne failed twice at Olympique Marseille ; in the round of 16 encounters at the end of the decade, it was teams from northern France ( Olympique Lille , UR Dunkerque and CA Paris ) that blocked Bordeaux's way from among the last eight participants.

After the Second World War , the SC de la Bastidienne recorded again a high flight in the national cup competition, when he reached the main round five times in a row from 1949/50 to 1953/54 and made it to the sixteenth finals in 1950, 1953 and 1954. The thirty-second finals in 1950, when the fifth division side defeated first division Racing Lens 3-2, which L'Équipe described the following day as an "unexpected sensation", stood out. In Rennes on a neutral place, as was common in the Cup at that time, the blatant outsider was 0-1 and 1-2 behind before he was able to turn the game around in the last eight minutes of the game. Subsequently, the team lost 3-0 to FC Sochaux , as it was in these five seasons at all clubs from the highest league against which the amateurs had to give up, twice of them FC Sète .
In both his first and his last of the 18 appearances in the main cup, it was a local rival who defeated the SC: in 1920 the Stade Bordelais UC and in 1954 the Girondins.

In 1953 the SC was again champions of the Aquitaine Division d'Honneur and rose to the national top amateur league (CFA) . In the late 1960s, Bastidienne began to crash into the lowest local leagues; only in 1996 did the return at least to the regional amateur league area take place. However, this did not last; In 2011/12, the first men's team of SC Bastidienne played in the Promotion de Ligue d'Aquitaine , i.e. at the tenth highest league level in France. The home stadium of the Red-Whites is the Stade Galin , which opened in 1935 and has a grandstand with 2,450 seats. Women's football has
also been played in the club since the 1990s .

CD Español

The CD Español, which was probably founded in the 1920s and is also written "Espagnol" in France, was an association of the population group of Spaniards who immigrated to the Bordeaux region, employed or studied there and from which the majority of the players were recruited. His club colors were purple, yellow and red. The team played their home games in Villenave-d'Ornon, a few kilometers outside the city .

Only one year before, the CD Español was promoted to the Division d'Honneur for the first time. In 1932, the CD Español became champion and in 1933 - this time behind SC Bastidienne - runners-up in the Aquitaine league. As such, his application was approved, like the local rival in 1933/34 to be allowed to compete in the professional second division. The Spaniards finished the season as fourth in the table in the southern group and had won the two prestigious derbies against Bastidienne with 4-1 and 2-1 respectively.

In the cup, the CDE brought it to five main rounds between 1928 and 1939 , in which he never survived the thirty-second finals; rather, he suffered particularly heavy defeats in 1934, 1937 and 1939 (0:10 against FC Sète, 0: 8 against Olympique Marseille and 0: 6 against Toulouse FC ). Possibly during the war and the German occupation the association disbanded.
