History

Main article: History of Fenerbahçe S.K.

1907-1970

For information on a breakdown of Fenerbahçe's league and cup history, see 2011–12 Fenerbahçe S.K. season.

Fenerbahçe was founded in 1907 in the province of Kadıköy in Istanbul. The founders were Nurizade Ziya Bey (Ziya Songülen), Ayetullah Bey, Enver Necip Bey (Enver Necip Okaner). This group of individuals founded the club secretly in order to keep a low profile and not get into any trouble with the strict Ottoman rule. So strict in fact that the Sultan, Abdul Hamid II, forbid that the Turkish youth may not set up a club nor engage in the game of football played by the English families that was watched in envy. Ziya Songülen was elected the first president of the club, Ayetullah Bey became the first General Secretary, and Enver Necip Okaner was given the post of the General Captain. The lighthouse situated on the Fenerbahçe cape was a big influence on the design of the club's first emblem, which sported the yellow and white colors of daffodils around the lighthouse. The kits were also designed with yellow and white stripes. The emblem and colors of the club were changed in 1910 when Topuz Hikmet redesigned the badge and Ziya Bey changed the colors to yellow and navy, still seen today. Fenerbahçe's activities were kept in secrecy until a legislation reform in 1908, when, under a new law, all football clubs had to register to exist legally. Fenerbahçe joined the Istanbul League in 1909, finishing fifth in their first year. The founding line-up included Ziya Songülen, Ayetullah Bey, Necip Okaner, Galip Kulaksizoglu, Hassan Sami Kocamemi, Asaf Bespinar, Enver Yetiker, Sevkati Hulusi Bey, Fuat Hüsnü Kayacan, Hamit Hüsnü Kayacan, and Nasuhi Baydar.

Fenerbahce played against the staff of the Royal Navy that occupied Istanbul during the Turkish War of Independence. Some British soldiers formed football teams that were named after the players' speciality, for example Essex Engineers, Irish Guards, Grenadiers, and Artillery. These teams played against each other and against local football teams in Istanbul. Fenerbahçe won many of these matches. The Turkish Football Federation founded a national league in 1959, which continues today under the name of the Süper Lig. Fenerbahçe won the first tournament, beating Galatasaray 4–1 on aggregate. The next year, Fenerbahçe participated in the Champions League for the first time. They qualified through a 4–3 win over Csepel SC. They lost their first round game to OGC Nice 1–5 in a playoff game after drawing on aggregate. Fenerbahçe became the most successful Turkish club of the 1960s. They were also runners-up three times. In the Balkans Cup 1966–67 (a competition set up for Eastern European clubs from Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania, Turkey, and Yugoslavia that existed between the 1960–61 and 1993–94 seasons), Fenerbahçe won the cup after three matches against Greek club AEK Athens FC, making them the first Turkish club to win a non-domestic competition. This success would remain unparalleled by a Turkish club until Sarıyer and Samsunspor won the cup many years later in the 1990s. The 1970s saw Galatasaray win four more league titles. The decade also saw the first non-Istanbul club and a club outside of Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş, and Galatasaray to win a league title. Trabzonspor went on to win four titles during the decade. Fenerbahçe won three titles in the 1980s, titles Galatasaray and Beşiktaş dominated the Turkish League during the 1990s, combining to win nine out of 10 ti Fenerbahçe's only Turkish League success during the 1990s came in the 1995–1996 season under Carlos Alberto Parreira.

2000s

Fenerbahçe won the league in 2001, denying Galatasaray a fifth consecutive title. They followed up the next season with a runners-up place behind Galatasaray with new coach Werner Lorant. The next season, however, did not go so well as Fenerbahçe finished in sixth place with Ariel Ortega in the squad. Despite this, that season is memorable to many Fenerbahçe fans due to a 6-0 win against arch-rivals Galatasaray in Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium on 6 November 2002. After firing Werner Lorant, they hired another German coach, Christoph Daum. Daum had previously coached in Turkey, winning the league with Besiktas in 1994–95. Fenerbahçe brought in players including van Hooijdonk, Mehmet Aurélio, and Fabio Luciano as a rebuilding process. These new players lead Fenerbahçe to their fifteenth title and third star (one being awarded for every 5 league titles won by a club). The next year was followed up by a narrow championship over Trabzonspor, winning the then record of sixteen Turkish First Football League championships. Fenerbahçe lost the title in the last week of the 2005–06 season to Galatasaray. Fenerbahçe needed a win, but instead drew 1–1 with Denizlispor while Galatasaray won 3–0 over Kayserispor.

Soon after, Christoph Daum stepped down as manager, and was replaced by Zico on 4 July 2006. Zico began his reign by signing two new defenders, highly-touted Uruguayan international Diego Lugano, and fellow Brazilian Edu Dracena. Zico also signed two strikers, Serbian international Mateja Kežman, and another Brazilian, Deivid. Fenerbahçe's 2006–07 domestic season started off with a 6–0 win over relegation candidates Kayseri Erciyesspor. In the 32nd week of the Süper Lig, Fenerbahçe drew Trabzonspor 2–2, while Beşiktaş lost to Bursaspor 0–3, putting the former out of contention for the title. Fenerbahçe won their seventeenth Turkish Süper Lig title in 2007, the most in Turkey. Fenerbahçe started off their 2007–08 season by signing Brazilian international Roberto Carlos. The deal saw the defender come for free after his contract was not extended by Real Madrid. Young Turkish players like Gökhan Gönül, Yasin Çakmak, Ilhan Parlak, Ali Bilgin, Turkish-English attacker Kazım Kazım, Turkish-Brazilian left back Gökçek Vederson joined Fenerbahçe in the beginning of the season and Chile national football team captain Claudio Maldonado joined the team in January '08 transfer window.

On 11 January 2007, Fenerbahçe was officially invited to G-14. G-14 is an association which consists of top european clubs. Fenerbahçe is the only Turkish club that have been invited to this association. On March 2008, Fenerbahçe's record application was accepted by Guinness World Records Menagement Team, which envisages Fenerbahçe to have the highest number of medal and trophy achievements on the planet with its 9 branches entirely, total of 1134 cups and medals. In the UEFA Champions League 1996–97 season Fenerbahçe completed the group stage with seven points and, amongst others, beat Manchester United 1–0 in Old Trafford undoing the record of the English giants being unbeaten for 40 years in their homeground. Under Zico’s command, Fenerbahçe qualified from the UEFA Champions League 2007–08 group stage for the first time in the club's history and went on to beat Sevilla to become a quarter-finalist in the 2007–08 season. So far, Zico is also the most successful manager of the team's history in the European arena. After successful scores both in local league of Turkey and international matches, Zico gained a new nickname from Fenerbahçe fans: Kral Arthur (meaning "King Arthur" in Turkish). Since 2000, Fenerbahçe improved the club's finances and facilities, bringing world stars to the club such as Haim Revivo, Ariel Ortega, Serhiy Rebrov, Pierre van Hooijdonk, Alex de Souza, Stephen Appiah, Nicolas Anelka and lately Mateja Kežman, Roberto Carlos, and Dani Güiza.

Fenerbahçe's 2009-10 season ended in shock as they lost the title on the last day. The Fenerbahçe players were told a draw would be enough towards the end of the match only to find out that other games went against their favour as Bursaspor beat Beşiktaş 2-1 to get the title. Despite the title loss, Fenerbahçe ended the season with the highest number of clean sheets (10), as well as the joint longest winning streak (8).

Fenerbahçe won a record 18th Turkish League title in the 2010–11 season. The team were nine points behind the leaders after 16 games, but went on an unbeaten run of 17 wins and one draw from the last 18 games of the season and won the title with 82 points. Trabzonspor also finished on 82 points but finished second due head-to-head goal average in favor of Fenerbahçe. Alex, became the top scorer of the season with 28 goals, the highest number of goals by a foreign player in history of Turkish football. Following the season's end club president Aziz Yıldırım was remanded in custody over allegations of match-fixing, part of the 2011 Turkish football corruption scandal. Fenerbahçe is reported to have fixed the results of the last 18 weeks in which they had an unbeaten run. As a consequence of the match-fixing allegations, UEFA demanded that Fenerbahçe withdraw from the 2011–12 Champions League. The club refused but, under pressure from UEFA, the TFF withdrew them from the competition, giving Fenerbahçe's place to second-placed Trabzonspor.

In July 2011, Fenerbahçe fans invaded the pitch during a friendly against the Ukrainian champions Shakhtar Donetsk. As punishment, Fenerbahçe was sentenced to two Turkish league games in empty stadia. The TFF later allowed those two games to be filled with spectators; the men were barred while women and children under twelve got in for free. The team planned to have similar promotions during the rest of the season in order to increase attendance and reduce violence.

General Harington Cup

Main article: General Harington Cup

General Harington Cup is the most important cup for Turkish multisport club Fenerbahçe in Fenerbahçe Museum. At the end of World War I, the Ottoman Empire were considered defeated and its lands have been invaded by Italian, French, Greek and British troops. On 13 November 1918, British troops entered Istanbul and invasion was official. During the course of invasion British troops arranged football matches with local teams. It still is a policy conducted by troops in foreign lands, considered as a P.R. thing. Fenerbahçe took place in many games and won 41 of 50 games played and lost only 4 games ended with a draw. Fenerbahçe was secretly moving guns to the Anatolia meanwhile from its club building near Kurbağalıdere (can be translated as Froggy Creek) by small boats. Also the club's players were going to fronts, fighting against the invading troops, returning to Istanbul to play games and moving more guns and ammo. The British forces realized this as well so they raided the club building but club members got early information about the raid so the guns and ammo were moved and hidden in club members' houses or warehouses. The invasion forces were not able to find anything but they stayed in the club building for days to prevent further action. The head commander of British troops was General Charles Harrington and he was quite upset with this progress. He was looking for victory on the pitch as well as the war itself, while Turkish people were fighting with incredible manner all over the country. It so happened that the Turk's resistance was finally paying off, invasion forces was strongly pushed back, victories in many fronts by sacrifices of Turkish people were taking place.

Istanbul derbies

The first Kıtalar Arası Derbi on 17 January 1909 at Papazın Çayırı.

Main article: Kıtalar Arası Derbi

Main article: Beşiktaş–Fenerbahçe rivalry

"The big three" clubs of Istanbul, Beşiktaş, Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray have a century-long history of rivalry. Fenerbahçe-Galatasaray rivalry is the primary Istanbul derby and the most important rivalry in Turkish football. The rivalry has led to violence among supporters on numerous occasions. Other top level İstanbul derbies include the teams; İstanbul BB and Kasımpaşa although these teams pose a minor rivalry as the history and the nation-wide attention to the derbies among the big three is unmatched.

Torches, smoke, drums, flags and giant posters used to create visual grandeur and apply psychological pressure on visiting teams, which fans call "welcoming them to hell".

Club crest and colours

Since the club's foundation, Fenerbahçe has used the same badge, which has only undergone minor alterations. It was designed by Topuz Hikmet who played left wing in 1910 and was made by Tevfik Haccar (Taşcı) in London. The emblem consists of five colours. The white section which includes the writing Fenerbahçe Spor Kulübü 1907 represents purity and open heartedness, the red section represents love and attachment to the club and symbolises the Turkish flag. The yellow middle section symbolises admiration and envy, while the navy symbolises nobility. The oak acorn leaf which rises from the navy and yellow section shows the power of Fenerbahçe. The green colour of the leaf shows the success of Fenerbahçe is imperative.

Fenerbahçe Museum

Main article: Fenerbahçe Museum

Fenerbahçe has a huge leading profile over other clubs concerning trophies. Fenerbahçe Spor Kulübü has won many trophies at the currently active branches and at some other branches which have been discontinued. During the Turkish War of Independence, Fenerbahçe played with many teams of the enemy and injected morale to the Turkish people by winning those games. Fenerbahçe Spor Kulübü’s football team has many records which are still not broken. Yet the success is not limited only with the football team. At the Olympics, the first gold medal was won by a Fenerbahçe athlete, Ruhi Sarıalp, in a field other than wrestling. In athletics, the only club that wins the European Championship is Fenerbahçe.

Fenerbahçe A2 is the under-20 squad of Fenerbahçe S.K. They play in the Turkish A2 league, along with fellow A2 teams from other clubs. The team consists mainly of players between ages of eighteen and twenty. Players over the age of twenty are ineligible to play for the team. This means in practice, a player in the A2 team who is twenty-one is removed from the A2 squad and promoted to the senior squad.
