history

Today's Pordenone Calcio was founded in 1920 under the name Football Club Pordenone . Previously, a municipal association called Unione Sportiva Pordenone had existed in the city in Friuli-Venezia Giulia since 1913 . However, this was disbanded during the First World War . FC Pordenone initially played for a few years in the region's regional game operations and was finally able to move up to the Seconda Divisione for the first time in the 1926/27 season, which was the second highest level of the Italian football championship at the time. With the establishment of Serie A and Serie B in 1929 but it sank rapidly into insignificance regional Calcio . Also in 1929 the club was renamed Pordenone Liber Football Club . A large number of name changes followed in the years that followed. It was not until 1945 that a club name was found with Associazione Calcio Pordenone that lasted for several decades. In 1926 the Stadio Ottavio Bottecchia , initially still under the name Stadio Littorio, was opened as the club's home. It has been named after Ottavio Bottecchia , an Italian cyclist who was murdered in 1927 , since 1945 .

The then OND Pordenone succeeded in 1939 the first promotion to the Series C , where they could not hold in the following year. In 1941 the direct ascent succeeded, followed by another direct descent. After the end of the Second World War , AC Pordenone played fourth-rate for a few years before returning to Serie C in 1958. There, as the twenty-first, they just managed to stay in the league, but in the years that followed, the club established itself in the third division and played there until 1964. After relegation to Serie D , AC Pordenone acted there for many years until 1979, which meant a total of fifteen seasons in a row in Girone C of Serie D. The stay in the C2 series was also long . Between 1979/80 and 1988/89 there are ten seasons in a row in this league. The last name change of the association from Pordenone took place during this time . In the summer of 1985 the club name changed to Pordenone Calcio .

After relegation from the C2 series in 1989, difficult times followed for Pordenone Calcio. After two more relegations in a row, they were in the Prima Categoria Friuli-Venezia Giulia in 1991 and thus reached the seventh highest level of Italian football. In deep regional football they finally stayed until 2000, when they returned to Serie D. After having narrowly missed the direct march into the C2 series in the 2000/01 season, this venture succeeded a year later. Despite relegation in Serie C2, Pordenone Calcio had to relegate again, financial problems made it impossible to continue playing in the fourth division. They started again in amateur football and returned to Serie D in 2006. After the direct relegation the following year, they rose another year later to the fifth division and established themselves there. With the league reform in 2014, Pordenone Calcio qualified for the newly introduced Lega Pro, where the class was held in the first season only because of the license withdrawal against AC Monza Brianza .
