With his club in Divizia A, Adrian Porumboiu set an impressive budget for a newly promoted team in the top flight.

Fotbal Club Vaslui, commonly known as FC Vaslui or simply Vaslui, is a Romanian professional football club based in the city of Vaslui, Vaslui County, currently playing in the Liga IV.

The team was formed in 2002 as Fotbal Club Municipal Vaslui, being one of the most prominent in the country from its promotion to the Liga I in 2005 and until its relegation in 2014 due to financial issues. Vasluienii have earned a European spot in five consecutive seasons, narrowly missed the league championship in 2012, and lost a Cupa României final in 2010.

The official club colours are yellow and green, hence the nickname "the Yellow-Greens".

History

On 20 July 2002, the newly promoted Divizia C side Victoria Galați moved to Vaslui, after an agreement between Marius Stan and the Vaslui Municipality to use the Municipal Stadium. Ioan Sdrobiș was appointed as team manager, and the main squad was formed from Dunărea Galați players.[3] The club also changed its name to Fotbal Club Municipal Vaslui or FC Vaslui for short. Their main objective was to achieve the promotion in Divizia B.[4] Soon after their foundation Adrian Porumboiu took over the club and he immediately changed the colours of the team's strip from white and blue to yellow and green, the same as those used by his company.[5] At the end of the season, despite the achievement of promotion, Marius Stan, the club president, resigned and Adrian Porumboiu, the club owner, decided to stop sponsoring the team, because of what he perceived as the Vaslui Municipality's lack of interest in the team.[6] With a whole new management team, the objective for the newly promoted Divizia B team was to avoid relegation.[7] With a strong start to the season and with Adrian Porumboiu back at the club, the objective was changed from avoiding relegation, to promotion to Divizia A. The club managed to secure promotion the following season, setting a new record by being the club promoted to Divizia A in the quickest time, only three years after their foundation.[8]

With his club in Divizia A, Adrian Porumboiu set an impressive budget for a newly promoted team in the top flight. Despite signing Claudiu Răducanu, Sabin Ilie, Nana Falemi and Cătălin Cursaru, FC Vaslui had a poor record in the top flight: not a single victory at the end of the first part of the season.[9] In the winter break, Mircea Rednic changed Vaslui's transfer policy.[10] The club went on a good run and had one of the best records for the second half of the season. However the club was embroiled in controversy when they faced Steaua Bucuresti in the 30th round of matches. In order to secure the championship Steaua had to win at Vaslui. Steaua duly won by four goals, and as a consequence secured the league title, but the easy win was highly contested by not only the officials at Steaua's great rivals FC Rapid București, but also by Adrian Porumboiu, who decided the following day to give up ownership of FC Vaslui.[11] With no sponsorship, and with no squad, the media speculated that Vaslui would sell its Divizia A spot, although the club president denied those rumours.[12]

With a completely different team from the previous season, FC Vaslui had the same poor season start as before.[13] Despite this, FC Vaslui finished 8th at the end of the season, the club's best performance at the time. Fortunes had changed markedly under new team manager Viorel Hizo, who has been appointed on 24 September after Mulțescu was sacked.[14] However, despite his solid performances, Hizo decided to resign at the end of the season, because of FC Vaslui's poor infrastructure.[15] Adrian Porumboiu, who had returned to the club after his earlier departure, decided to invest the club's budget in improving the crumbling infrastructure, instead of new players.[16]

After Dorinel Munteanu was revealed as the new team manager, the main objective was set: qualification for European competition.[17] The season was one with ups and downs for the Moldavian team, FC Vaslui securing the final spot for European competition, thanks to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). Vaslui contested Oțelul Galați's decision to include two players, both of whom had been sent off in the previous matchday, in a league game between the two clubs. CAS awarded Vaslui the three points, and as a result FC Vaslui finished 7th, ahead of Oțelul.[18]

With his team in the Intertoto Cup, Adrian Porumboiu invested a significant amount of money in new players.[19] Viorel Hizo had also been reinstated as the team manager.[20] After defeating Neftchi Baku, FC Vaslui qualified for the UEFA Cup,[21] but ultimately failed to qualify for the Group Stages, after they were eliminated by Slavia Prague because of the away goal.[22] The championship was one with ups and downs for the team, Vaslui sitting in 9th place for almost the entire season. After a win against Universitatea Craiova in the final round, and thanks to the other results, FC Vaslui finished 5th, and secured a spot in the Europa League, for the second year in a row (Europa League being the new name for the UEFA Cup).[23] The team also reached the Romanian Cup semi-final, where they were beaten by CFR Cluj, after a number of errors by the referee.[24]

In its second season in the European competitions, despite winning in the first leg, FC Vaslui failed to qualify in the Europa League Group Stages for the second time, after they lost by three goals against AEK Athens.[25] Despite its unsuccessful European season, Vaslui had an excelennt domestic season, finishing 3rd in the championship,[26] and reaching the Romanian Cup final.[27]

Because FC Vaslui failure to qualify for the European Group Stages Adrian Porumboiu appointed Spaniard Juan López Caro as club manager.[28] The appointment was not a success however because he not only failed to get the team into the Group Stages,[29] but he also won only three matches in the first ten rounds, and the team was eliminated from the Romanian Cup by Liga III side Alro Slatina.[30] Because Caro had a $1,000,000 release clause, Adrian Porumboiu decided to suspend the Spanish manager,[31] with the club sixth in the league, only 7 points behind the leader, and reinstate Viorel Hizo, for the third time as the team manager.[32] Hizo not only managed to revive the team, but he turned it into a real title contender.[33] Meanwhile, on 4 January 2011, FC Vaslui received a nine-month transfer ban from FIFA, following a complaint by its former player, Ljubinkovic.[34] Despite Porumboiu appealing to the CAS, the decision remained, with the ban expiring on 6 September 2011.[35] At the end of the season, despite having made no transfers in the winter break, FC Vaslui finished 3rd for the second year in a row.[36]

After the Romanian Football Federation denied a licence to FC Timișoara, and therefore barred their participation in the European competitions,[37] FC Vaslui took its place in the UEFA Champions League's Third qualifying round.[38] However FC Vaslui was eliminated from the competition and so dropped into the Europa League Play-Off.[39] Vaslui faced Sparta Prague with major squad problems. No less than nine players were unable to play: Kuciak and Pouga refused to return to the team; Papp, Canu, Adailton, Wesley and Gladstone were injured; Milisavljevic and Pavlovic were excluded from the squad.[40] Despite this, FC Vaslui gained its most important victory from its history, a 2–0 home win against Sparta Prague.[41] Despite losing in the second leg, FC Vaslui managed to qualify for the UEFA Europa League Group Stages for the first time.[42] The team managed to make some great games in the 2011-12 UEFA Europa League Group Stages against teams like Sporting Lisbon, S.S. Lazio and FC Zurich.In the same season the team finished 2nd in Liga I.

Rivalries

FC Vaslui's eternal rival is other team from Moldova region, CSMS Iași, and the matches between this teams are known as "Derby of Moldova", and also end with violent clashes between supporter of both teams. Even if CSMS Iași is a new team, founded in 2011, the prides are big, and CSMS inherited this rivalry from Iași's former team, Politehnica Iași. The rivalry between FC Vaslui and Poli Iași started in 2004, when Vaslui promoted in top division of Romanian football, being a result of the demographic and political rivalry between Iași and Vaslui cities. Poli Iași was dissolved in 2009, and CSMS Iași was founded as successor.
