￼FC Sredorek

Football Club Sredorek (Фудбалски клуб Средорек) is a semi-proffesional football club based in the village of Staro Nagoričane, near ￼￼￼￼Kumanovo￼￼, in the Republic of Macedonia. It was founded in 1966, and does not currently compete in any of the Macedonian Regional Leagues.

￼History￼￼

The club was founded in 1966, by a group of local villagers, enthusiastic to have a team for the wider region of Sredorek, and base it here, in Staro Nagoričane. At first, there was no management, only a team of 15 players and 2 coaches. ￼￼￼Two years later, the club got an owner, Pavle Šukuvić. In order to play in the regional league, they needed to have a full-sized pitch, with minimum 200 seats. This was hard to do, but Vodanojka agreed to sponsor them, and so the club got a stadium, now called Stojko Nikolayev, in honour of the team's first coach.

In 1969 the team joined Regional League Inner-West Kumanovopolje District 2 Division 1. They had now a full-sized roster as well and managed finishing 2nd to Mladost Nikuštak 2, by only 2 points. The next year they won first place and were promoted to the Premier Division. There they beat Mladost Nikuštak in the last game of the season, thus finishing 1st with 35 points. In 4 years, they made it to Kumanovopolje Regional League. The competition there was tough, and FC Sredorek came in 3rd. In the next season, however, they were 1st place with 54 points. Second were again Mladost Nikuštak with 47. When they got to Kumanovo League in 1977, owner Marko Milošević sold the club to Vodanojka. The manager was also changed, from Zlatko Kokošić to the legendary Kaiho Autowambe. In 1978 in the Kumanovo league they finished 6th. In 1979 2nd, and in 1980, they finished 1st, and did so well they made a double promotion and the next year they were in the SRM league 2, North-East. They played amazing matches that year, and the captain, Sale Mumuzov, scored a record 62 goals. They still ended up 2nd, to Kriva Palanka reserves. In 1982, they finished 1st after defeating Ogut 4-2 on penalties in the tiebreaker. This way FC Sredorek was in the SRM North League. They won 2 matches against favorites FC Skopje, and ended 2nd, to Tetovo Qahrë. So this means in 1984 they were in SRM League 2, and participated in the the SRM Cup. In the league, they were 4th, with 60 points, but in the cup, in the round of 16, they beat rivals Mladost Nikuštak and in the quarter finals they beat Saraj 2-0 and in the semi-final they finally ended their amazing series with a loss to Šemševo. In 1988 the club reached the SRM League and the Yugoslav 2nd League. This was the club's greatest achievment. In the SRM League they finished second to last, narrowly avoiding relegation. In the Yugoslav 2nd league they won against Radnički Vranje 2-1, thus avoiding relegation. In the SRM Cup, they this time finished 2nd to FC Vardar. This is a list of their Cup games that season:

Round of 32: FC Sredorek 3-0 FC Euromilk

Round of 16: FC Sredorek 4-1 FC Drim

Quarter Final: FC Pelister 2-3 FC Sredorek

Semi Final: FC Škupi 1-2 FC Sredorek

Final: FC Sredorek 0-5 FC Vardar

In 1989 they were last in Yugoslavia 2nd league with only 2 draws, against Voyvodina and Crvena Zvezda. In the SRM League, they were 12th, a record high. In the Cup, they lost to FC Metalurg in the Quartef Final, 6-1. In 1990 they didn't play. They started playing again in 1999. But now the ￼amazing Autowambe was switched with Miroslav Milenkovski. He proved himself a terrible manager, selling 9 players, and buying soon-to-be Žučuhop star, Fernardinho. By 2002 the team was back in the Kumanovo Regional. In 2003, with the re-organization of the Leagues in the Republic of Macedonia, FC Sredorek found themselves in the North-East Macedonian Cup. The manager left and in came Gianluigi Carramonte of San Marino. In 2005, the team won the Cup, beating Mladost Nikuštak 6-1. Next they were in the Makedonija Sredna Cup. They won very impressively, not conceding a single goal and scoring 25. In the final they beat Kanjaleyvo      2-0. In 2008 FC Sredorek was once again in the Macedonian 3rd League. They finished 4th, with 47 points. First was Saraj with 95. In 2009 they were 3rd, and in 2010, last. Again they were in North-East Cup. They lost 8-0 to Kojnare in the quarter-final. For the next 3 years, they didn't play at all. In 2015, they were in the North-East Cup. Kovanski Sisinja agreed to sponsor them. So they won the Cup, defrating Arbanaško 2-1. In 2016, 17 and 18 they didn't play but will start in Sredna Makedonija Cup in the 2018/19 season.
