[edit] History

The club was founded in 1914. The club's colors, red-white, were chosen to be the same as of FC Slavia Prague. The club's biggest successes on the national level came during the SFRY when it won the Yugoslav First League in 1966 and 1989, and was the runner-up in 1957, 1962 and 1975. In 1967, Vojvodina reached the quarter-finals of the European Cup, before being knocked out in dramatic circumstances 2-1 on aggregate by eventual champions, Glasgow Celtic, courtesy of a last minute goal by Celtic captain Billy McNeill. After winning the European Cup by beating Inter Milan 2-1 in Lisbon on May 25, 1967, Celtic players said later that Vojvodina was the best side they had faced that season.

It also participated in the Yugoslav Cup and reached the finals in 1951 and 1997. Vojvodina played in the Intertoto cup final in 1998. In 2007, the club once again reached the domestic cup final, again failing to take home the trophy.In season 2008/09 Vojvodina ends as second in the league,behind Partizan and in front of Red Star.

Note that Vojvodina is also the name of basketball, volleyball, water polo, ice hockey and baseball teams under the same leadership.

[edit] Stadium

The home field of FK Vojvodina is the Karađorđe Stadium in Novi Sad. With a capacity of 15,204 seats, it is the largest football stadium in the city. The stadium is also the home ground for the Serbian U-21 football team. In late May 2007, the stadium also was the site of Siniša Mihajlović's testimonial match.

In 2006, the club reconstructed the whole club complex SC Vujadin Boškov along with the stadium. The club's training complex is one of the most modern training camps in the region. In light of the Universiade 2009, the club will install new reflectors.

[edit] Supporters

FK Vojvodina's supporters are known as The Firm (Firma).

The following is a description from the supporters.

The Firm is an organized group of supporters which accepts only true fans of Vojvodina who will show appreciation and love towards the club by supporting it at home, and away games as well, by cheering unanimously and with all the other activities that are part of the supporter life style.

The Firm has had a grand entrance in the new century and one can say that we are one of the most attractive and most modern supporter groups in the region, although our team is not having the best results in the national championship and we did not compete in European Cups for several years.

We are trying very hard to help our team to get back on its feet by giving advice and by participating in the Club Assembly because we all know what has happened in the last decade of the previous century.

We will do anything to protect the image of our club and to try to lead it back to the paths of old glory as we would like to make our old supporters come back to the terrace. Also, we will do everything in our power to motivate younger generations to come to the stadium. The mentality of the people of Novi Sad is starting to switch and again it is as it was in the old days, when most of the Novi Sad citizens supported Vojvodina.
