Historical reference marks

The emergence of a club

Club founded in 1904 under the name of “Naples”. In 1922, the club amalgamates with “Internazionale Napoli” and adopts the name of “Internaples”. The 1926, the club is renamed “Associazione Calcio Napoli”. It is acted in fact of a new fusion with a very new Neapolitan club. The June 25th 1964, the club is renamed “Societa Sportiva Calcio Napoli”. In 1968 and 1975, the club obtains the second place of the championship but there remains difficult to fight against clubs as rich as the Milan AC or the Juventus of Turin. Nevertheless, Naples gains twice the cut of Italy (1962 and 1976). With beginning of the year 80, to conceive Napoli as a team of first rank belongs more to the Utopia, and yet the decade which will follow will be beautiful and well mainly Neapolitan.

The Maradona era

History of Naples east thus irremediably related to that of the " pibe of oro" , the Argentinian Diego Maradona. At the end of a serial which lasted all the summer 1984, the ambitious president Corrado Ferlaino enlisted Maradona coming from FC Barcelona. To accommodate it, not less than 60.000 supporters Neapolitan came at the stage San Paolo! At this point in time the most glorious page of the history of Napoli could start to be written. Accustomed in the middle of the classification or to fight against relegation, Napoli is metamorphosed and even conquers the championship of Italy twice (1987 and 1990) being offered doubled with the cut of Italy in 1987. The club also obtains two second places of the series has in 1988 and 1989. On the European scene, it is the brésilo-Argentinian duet Careca - Maradona which crowns the Neapolitan club finally UEFA Cup 1989 against German of the VfB Stuttgart. The Argentinian one gives a legitimate pride to a whole area after last years behind the untouchable ones and rich clubs of the north of the Italy. Around the wonder, the Neapolitan public was likely to see evolving/moving of great names such as Careca, Alémao or Fernando di Napoli. The great adventure stops with the departure of Maradona, this last being positive control with cocaine, the end of this season 1991 and one ultimate trophy (Supercoupe of Italy).

Progressive descent

After Maradona is sportivement badly managed since with its departure, it is the ambition of the club which is re-examined with the fall and the 4th place obtained in 1992 marks the end of a prestigious cycle. Seasons after seasons, the team is dismantled and does not play gradually any more the top of the table until going down in Serie B in 1998. An increase in Serie has in 2000 followed by a new retrogradation illustrates the inevitable decline of the club. In September 2004, the club touches the bottom since which it is constrained with relegation in Serie C1 following the financial bankruptcy.

Supporters

The Neapolitan public is without any doubt one of more impassioned football on the old continent, but it is initially the reflection of a city (old Greek colony as well as Marseilles or Barcelona) with a strong identity, with the southernmost character and omnipresent poverty. With the image of the inequalities between north and south of Italy, the club always made with average quite the lower than those of the clubs of north like the Milan AC or the Juventus of Turin and it is with much pride that the Neapolitan ones always supported the club representing their city. Touched by poverty, it is during the glorious era of Maradona that the Neapolitan public reaches the Italian and European recognition. Even at the bottom of the pit, the Tifosi always remained faithful to the club, since during their two seasons in series C, these is on average 40.000 supporters which came to encourage the blue and white ! They do not hesitate to follow of number their team in displacement through all the Italy. Napoli is the privileged conversation of all the city and all the area; what besides often appeared as certain handicaps, very important waiting and impatience to find last glories often slowed down the rebuilding of the club with a long-term plan. One can count on the fingers of a hand the number of city in Europe where the club has this importance for its inhabitants. The Neapolitan tifoseria is twinned with that of Genoa and there exists a strong friendly relation with those of Ancona, Palermo and Avellino. .
