history

Gaz Metan Mediaș was founded in 1945 as Karres Mediaș . In the qualifiers for the highest Romanian league, the Divizia A , is Karres could not face Dermagant Targu Mures prevail and thus launched upon resumption of gaming operations after the war, first in Divizia B . Just one year later, however, the rise succeeded.

After the rise, the club changed its name to CSM Mediaș ( Workers' Sports Club ). After relegation in the 1947/48 season , he rose again in 1949 to Divizia B. After changing the name to Partizanul Mediaș (1950), he began in 1951 under the name Flacăra Mediaș ( flame ). In the same year Flacăra achieved the greatest success in the club's history by reaching the cup final against CCA Bucharest . The final was lost with 1: 3 after extra time.

In the 1950s, Flacăra (from 1956 under the name Energia Mediaș ) sought to rise again, but could no longer build on previous successes. In 1958, the association took its current name Gaz Metan Mediaș - named after the natural gas production in the city. After many years in midfield, he was relegated to third-class Divizia C for the first time in 1972 , but was able to return a year later. Even after the descent in 1976, the immediate rise again succeeded.

Gaz Metan was able to hold on to Divizia B for another 15 years, before it was again a member of Divizia C for a year and achieved immediate promotion in 1993. In the mid-1990s, the club began a sporting high-altitude flight and instead played in the midfield for promotion. In 2000 succeeded under head coach Jean Gavrilă after 51 years, the return to Divizia A. Although Gavrilă after the end of the first half of the season in December 2000 made Silviu Dumitrescu place, this could not be the bottom of the table before relegation to Divizia B at the end of the season Preserve 2000/01 . Dumitrescu officiated two more seasons, in which the team in 2002 only managed to stay on the last day of the league and in the following season as third-placed just missed promotion. He was replaced in the summer of 2003 by Ioan Sabau , who had just ended his active career at Universitatea Cluj . In his first coaching season, Sabau Gaz Metan led to fourth place. In 2004/05 the club had to give way to Jiul Petroşani only because of the poorer goal difference. Sabau then left the club to coach Gloria Bistrița , and was replaced on June 30, 2005 by Jean Gavrilă, who had also narrowly missed promotion to Divizia A with FC Sibiu and from Sibiu Dorin Zotincă as Co-trainer brought along. In the second half of the 2005/06 season Gaz Metan was temporarily at the top of his second division season, but then lost some crucial games. In early May 2006 coach Gavrilă was replaced by Alexandru Varo , under which the club, however, just missed the relegation games in which the fourth promoted to Divizia A was determined. Following the summer break, a friendly match at Gloria Bistrița was planned on July 7, 2006. On the way there, the driver of the team bus lost control of the vehicle, which fell down an embankment. Numerous players and supervisors, including head coach Varo, were seriously injured. Varo remained coach of the team until he was replaced by Stelian Gherman in October 2006 and became his assistant coach. Gherman scored two wins and two draws in seven championship games and was released on March 8, 2007 after the first day of the second half of the season together with his assistants. His successor was Cristian Pustai , with whom he was promoted again in the 2007/08 season . In the following season , however, the club was only able to keep the class through the forced relegation of FC Argeş Piteşti . Two years later , Gaz Metan achieved the best result ever with 7th place. Once again, the club benefited from the relegation of another club: after runners-up FC Timișoara had their first division license revoked, Gaz Metan was allowed to take part in the second qualifying round of the 2011/12 UEFA Europa League , in which he was able to prevail against the Kuopion PS . A few weeks later, Gaz Metan was able to surprisingly prevail in the third qualifying round against the German Bundesliga club 1. FSV Mainz 05 and thus qualified for the play-offs in which Mediaș was eliminated against the Austrian club FK Austria Wien .
