The FC Lustenau 1907 is an Austrian football club from Lustenau in Vorarlberg . Due to financial difficulties, the club had to file for bankruptcy in March 2013, but managed the compulsory settlement and was thus able to survive. This means that FC Lustenau will remain the oldest football club in Vorarlberg. He played in the First League until the 2012/13 season , in the 2013/14 season he played in the 2nd Vorarlberg regional class (seventh highest performance class in Austria) and was able to celebrate immediate promotion in the same season.
history
Football was introduced very early in Lustenau . The Swiss Emil Brüschweiler was responsible for this . He played an active role at FC Romanshorn and, after joining the Eduard Alge & Co. embroidery business in Lustenau, soon aroused the Lustenau's interest in sport. The roots of FC Lustenau 07 lie in the old gymnastics club Lustenau , because they were mainly young gymnasts, some of whom had already made the acquaintance of the leather ball during professional stays in England and enjoyed playing football. At the request of the teacher Karl Bösch, a football department was founded in the gymnastics club around the turn of the century. Since there was still no football association and no competitors from its own federal state, TV Lustenau could only play games against German and Swiss clubs. For this reason, the TV footballers played in the Bodenseevereinigung against clubs such as FC Stachen (later FC Arbon ), FC Konstanz , Friedrichshafen and FC Rheineck .
But soon there were disputes in the gymnastics club Lustenau, as gymnastics was increasingly neglected in favor of the soccer game . This led to the split-off of the soccer section, which finally held the founding meeting of FC Lustenau on September 20, 1907 in the Gasthof zur Sonne . The club management, which consisted of all active footballers, was then instrumental in the upswing of football in Lustenau and all of Vorarlberg. On March 12, 1913, the FC Lustenau 1907 z. B. Godfather for the founding of FC Dornbirn in 1913 . In 1914 , the second Lustenau football club was founded with SC Austria Lustenau , which emerged from the competing Turnerbund Lustenau. During the First World War , football came to a standstill in the Ländle. Shortly after the war, FC Lustenau 07 started playing again. As more and more new clubs, such as FC Bregenz and FC Bludenz , emerged in 1919 , those responsible at FC Lustenau in particular came out in favor of founding an association. In 1920 the time had come and the Vorarlberg Football Association was born.
One of the most famous football players of FC Lustenau 07 before the war was Ernst Künz . In 1936 he was elected to the Olympic selection and he won the silver medal with the Austrian team at the Olympic Games in Berlin .
After the Second World War , the game was resumed under the name FC Rapid Lustenau . From 1947 the club was again called FC Lustenau 07 . The greatest success of the Lustenauer was promotion to the second Austrian league in the 2000/01 season . After relegation, the team around captain Manuel Rödl won the championship title in the Regionalliga West in the 2005/06 season (30 games / 27 wins / 3 draws / 0 defeats / goal difference 103: 22) and thus played again in the following season the first division .
In 2007 FC Lustenau 07 celebrated its 100th anniversary. The team's coach was the Dutchman Erik Orie , who headed FC Lustenau for six years (2002–2008) as the sporting director. Orie, who played in Austria for FK Austria Wien and VfB Mödling in the Bundesliga , had previously been a player for the club for four years. At the end of the autumn season 2008 Orie, when he was on a relegation zone with the team, was replaced by the Croatian Nenad Bjelica . Under Bjelica they managed to stay in the first division in spring 2009. In the 2009/10 season the club took 8th place there, and 7th place in 2010/11. In 2011/12 they only came in ninth, but due to the withdrawal of their license from LASK Linz , the Vorarlbergers were spared relegation. The financial situation became more tense.
At the beginning of 2013, rumors were circulating that the president would withdraw and sell the license. On January 24, 2013, President Sperger announced that he wanted to sell the license and definitely withdraw from professional operations. Three days earlier, the entire board of directors had resigned after the financial police had confiscated a folder with receipts for double contracts with players.
Regardless of the successful sporting season - after the autumn season, the club was in fifth place in the 2nd performance level - FC Lustenau had to file for bankruptcy in March 2013. The club played the 2012/13 season to the end, but was put back in last place due to the lack of a license.
According to the creditors, the reasons for insolvency are, on the one hand, significant repayment obligations that could not be paid after a tax audit. On the other hand, the lack of planned sponsorship income led to liquidity bottlenecks and ultimately to insolvency. After the resignation of President Sperger, a four-man committee took over the helm at FC, whose first goal was to meet the quota for the compulsory compensation. On May 24th, the restructuring plan (compulsory settlement) was accepted by the creditors and the continued existence of the property was secured. Since they did not want to take part in the third-class Regionalliga West, they turned to the Vorarlberg Football Association about acceptance into the Vorarlberg League. Finally, it was agreed to enter the 2nd Vorarlberg regional class (seventh highest level in Austria) instead of the previous amateur team.
