10 Football Clubs That No Longer Exist 

Nice. Hope they make it to the top again and that Chievo fans are there. Chievo has been a traditional Serie A team all my life. Scary to imagine that a successful club can still go bankrupt. They're wearing blue now. Are things OK or? Their yellow jersey was very recognizable ...

@@calamorta Clivense hasn't the yellow jersey because of a legal issue in the use of the name and colours of defuct Chievo Verona, which, by the way is still active only with the youth sector. At the end of the 2022-2023 season nobody made an offer to by the brand name nor the registration number with FIGC. Actually Clivense plays in Serie D, the 4th tier in the italian football pyramid and the top one for the amateur football (corresponding, not for the position in the pyramid, to the english National League).

Football Manager is calling to us...

@@calamorta The blue and white look is a throwback to their 1930's colors which Chievo used many years as a change kit. Two weeks ago, Clivense bought the branding rights at a bankruptcy auction and it appears they will soon change their name to Chievo Verona.

Chievo Is Back 💛💙🤍

We had the same problem in the capital city of #Canada🇨🇦 called #Ottawa🇨🇦. When #OttawaFuryFC⚽ folded I felt homeless & lost my faith in football... I called that team #FCOttawa⚽ love of my life... I also lost my beloved mascot sparky that day in 2011... I love watching #FCOttawa⚽ play because in every league is a chosen team {chosen one} that outstands among them all... Atlético Ottawa is a Canadian professional soccer club based in Ottawa, Ontario. The club competes in the Canadian Premier League and plays its home games at TD Place. The team was founded in 2020 by Spanish club Atlético Madrid. #AtléticoOttawa⚽ is the greatest champions🏆 football club ever in #CPLsoccer's⚽ history and future of football without a doubt⚽... Lets do it for ⚡"Sparky"⚡ #Thisourtime🇨🇦💘⚽

2+2 = 7

>altletico Ottawa Hahaaa, these North American team names I just cant!

i remember that werder bremen played them in the uefa cup 02/03. after a a draw in the first game werder thrashed them 8:0 at home haha. :)

No. NASL never had pro/rel and folded thanks to it’s own mismanagement. Nothing more. For a league that supposed to learn so much from NASL’s downfall, they sure love to copy from the NY Cosmo’s playbook of signing an aging former world great. The reason why pro/rel is hated among MLS franchise club investors is because it’s giving up power and profit over the entire American soccer landscape. Don Garber claimed he is against pro/rel because he feels it’s outdated and that foreign countries will soon see the light about how wonderful the single league franchise system is. Turns out that most if not all of the world have a disdain for the American sports structure because of how it’s anti community and will destroy a generational sports culture for the sake of the greedy passionless billionaire. There are more clubs in our lower divisions that went bankrupt than there has been in any of the top 10 European league countries combined. It says everything that our lower divisions leagues want pro/rel instead of the status quo.

Owners should own their team better then. If you don't spend beyond your means you won't go out of business.

@@jayh3283 Reality: A club like Chelsea FC doesn't have any more community connection than the Los Angeles Dodgers, and every bit as much connection to the world of billionaire owners (whether we're talking about Abramovich or Boehly). There are a few elite clubs like Barcelona that are exceptions, but that's the rule for top-level soccer clubs. When Americans want to watch a team with a connection to their local community, they watch school sports (college and/or high school). Yeah, there are a few areas where the local minor-league/semi-pro team has a following, but those, again, are the exception rather than the rule. Compare the following of the Oregon Ducks (even their baseball team!) with the following of the Eugene Emeralds, and you'll see my point. The more I think about it, the more I think the American sports landscape and culture is analogous to international soccer rather than European club soccer. Instead of relegation, American fans are used to thinking in terms of droughts (both championship and playoff appearance droughts) as the ultimate in failure--just like when fans of the Three Lions (which have no local community connection whatsoever and still somehow have viewers...) are disappointed by their ongoing trophy drought despite their team not being in danger of getting relegated from the right to participate in in either Euro qualifiers or World Cup qualifiers. p.s. I would think the comparison between Pele and Messi as "retired stars" would be more apt if Pele had been less than 12 months removed from his most recent Golden Ball when he went to New York...

@@loading9110 The problem comes in when _other owners'_ poor management decisions can lead to your team's downfall. The Cosmos never folded due to having issues of their own--they folded because they didn't have a proper league to play in (though they tried to stay afloat by participating in an indoor league for awhile).

While it is true that relegation can be the nail in the coffin for a club, as a european football fan myself I think not having a promotion system is the one of the biggest things holding the MLS back. I simply cannot invest myself in a league where if a team is not competing to be top of the table the season is mostly meaningless.

Same club just under different name

Bury FC actually were reformed this season they currently play in the 9th division and may take a while to be back to the football league, trust me you can search it on google

An uncle of mine through marriage to my paternal aunt supported Bury FC

I just searched Guangzhou Evergrande and they're still alive, just changed names tho. I mean, they got relegated and dissolved. But it's weird how they're not officially dead dead, but will eventually. China's football league was weird. Not many fans attending stadiums and oil wages for OK players.

Some Italian clubs were also went bankruptcy, though they were resurrected by the new ownership and even started the campaign from lower tier. Notable example was Fiorentina in 2002, Napoli in 2004, and Parma in 2015. Napoli was even so dramatic. They only took 19 years to return their glory after Aurelio De Laurentiis bought the club.

They still exist but are just inactive ATM, from my understanding.

Who misses Chievo Verona 👇

meadowbank thistle

Rangers

airdrie utd. and airdrie fc

Gretna

St Bernards

What was the club?

@@user-gs6hh8kf5m a club in Philippines United City FC

Chievo had potential

They’re now an amateur club, aren’t they?

The club exists, it just no longer participates in the competition. However, over the last 10 years, youth teams and a women's team have repeatedly participated in competitions.

Merthyr are still going

Ainda me dói tanto

@@HumanRaisedHer ??

FIFA UEFA SPFL SFA HMRC and even Celtic on two separate occasions all say same club , can you name a single footballing institution that says new club?

@@correctbydefault2047🎣 😂😂😂

@@JohnBoyBeattie aye that’s what I thought , can’t name one

@@correctbydefault2047 if it’s the same club how come players you gave testimonials to walked away for free and weren’t bound by contracts? How come they had to reapply to league and start all over again from the bottom? 😂😂

@@JohnBoyBeattie 1- contracts are double ended if you can’t afford to pay the player then they walk and contract is void. 2- we didn’t re apply “Sevco did not apply for new membership; rather, a transfer of the SFA membership that then belonged to the administrators of Rangers Football Club PLC.” 3- the Scottish football pyramid has 9 tiers , we were demoted to the 4th tier , why if we are a new club did we not start at the bottom of the football pyramid?

Lest they forget 😂😂😂

Well same club they just been bought the licensing of the club name by a company dont know exactly the name of it is

They died

Bjk

Same club

Leone's negro's 🥵

Leones negros and morelia still there in liga mex second division and San Luis still there liga mx

I think it's an AI voice he doesn't even sound human

Colo Colo & Carl Zeiss Jena. Both still exist. Colo-Colo is the biggest & most successful club in all of Chilean football & compete in the Copa Libertadores. Carl Zeiss Jena is based in Jena, Thuringia in what used to be East Germany. They now play in the Regionalliga Nordost.. far away from the Bundesliga.

Igor Kolomoisky, the billionaire businessman and then owner of FC Dnipro, was solely responsible for ending 100 years of history and killing the club. A sad end to successful and much-loved club which represented the wonderful city of Dnipro.

What brought you to this video? 🤔😂

Chievo Verona.

Maradona

The Flying Donkeys. Was funny watching Verona squirm that the wee local amateur team from town were roasting them in Seria A 🟡🔵🟡

Not on the list, but SV Mattersburg

Dnipro

Unfortunately for you, you are wrong. Rangers FC are recognised as being founded in 1872 and were allowed to continue. The only people I have seen say this are fans of rival teams.

@@LKeenan72 yep. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out that most who say this are from the East end of Glasgow.

Yes Serie D

Sorry United

Have a look at the spl fixtures. There’s you answer. That’s all you need to do.

Never died

He obviously hasn’t looked at the spl fixture list. Perhaps he can’t read

No love for them, but they do exist.

😒

Because they are still around? Owning companies may go under but..... They got off lightly, my lot ended up in the 9th level and Bury the 10th. Idiots and sometimes criminals buy football clubs.

DEEEENEPRO 😂

@SuperWeatherShield6623 nah, it's just bad pronunciation 😂

​@correctbydefault2047 Is airdrieonians a new club? The reductio ad absurdum of your argument, essentially the humpty dumpy view of reality-wen I say a word, it means what I say it means. If you are the same club... pay your debts.

This guy sounds bigoted. I’d hate to see how he brings up his kids with that attitude and hatred. He obviously hasn’t seen the spl fixture list.
