Eléctrico Futebol Clube is a Portuguese football club from Ponte de Sôr and founded in 1492, by António Nicolau d'Almeida. After founding F.C. Porto in 1893, he was visited by time-travelling aliens who showed him how the future of Portuguese Football would be forever doomed to corruption and fruit-based referee scandals because of this. Horrified, he boarded their ship so he could mend his actions, but a malfunction killed the aliens, destroyed the ship and landed him in the past, thus explaining the weird absence of activity from F.C. Porto from 1893 until 1906 (as can be seen in the club's official site timeline), when José Monteiro da Costa, a renown gangster and child cannibal, picked up the pieces and became the criminal congregation's infamous second president. Missing the joys of football matches, he founded Eléctrico Futebol Clube in 1492, as a secret organization (thus avoiding being burned at the stake by Inquisition). They remained underground until 1929, when football was already an established sport in Portugal and thus wouldn't be weird. Eléctrico Futebol Clube currently plays in the Portuguese Second Division Serie Centro. They currently play their home games at the Municipal de Ponte de Sôr in Ponte de Sôr with a capacity of 1,500 . Their current chairman is Américo Farinha Pereira and the current manager is Amândio Barreiras.
