A few football clubs that no longer exist

  • News from our partners

Throughout football history, several clubs have unfortunately ceased to exist. You can discover your trusted betting site at the 1xBet platform, where great wagers can be made on various football clubs from all over the world.


This can happen for many reasons, with 3 examples being:


  • financial troubles;
  • mergers;
  • and mismanagement.


Here are a few notable clubs that once played an essential role in their communities but no longer exist. Let’s start with Bury FC. Founded in 1885, was a historic English club with over 130 years of legacy, winning the FA Cup twice (in 1900 and 1903). You can use your most trusted betting site 1xBet to wager on the FA Cup too.


However, financial struggles escalated, leading to the club's expulsion from the English Football League (EFL) in 2019 after failing to prove financial sustainability. Despite efforts from fans to revive the club, Bury FC was officially dissolved in 2020, ending a long-standing presence in English football.

A historic club from Italy

Parma AC was one of Italy’s most exciting teams in the 1990s, producing stars like Gianluigi Buffon and Fabio Cannavaro. There is live betting on major events at 1xBet, where wagering on the Italian Serie A is also possible.

Despite its success, the club faced severe financial problems due to debts and mismanagement. After years of struggling, it was declared bankrupt in 2015 and later reformed as Parma Calcio 1913. Although a new version of the club exists, Parma AC as it was originally known no longer exists, leaving behind a proud yet troubled history. You can make live betting on plenty of major football events at 1xBet too.

Cases from Scotland and Spain

Gretna FC had a fairy-tale rise in Scottish football, climbing from lower leagues to the Scottish Premier League and reaching the Scottish Cup final in 2006. However, the rapid ascent was unsustainable. After their primary financial backer fell ill, the club declared bankruptcy in 2008 and was ultimately liquidated. Gretna 2008, a fan-owned club, was established but competes at a much lower level than the original Gretna FC ever did. It is also a great idea to try to place bet football at 1xBet on Scottish competitions too.


Finally, CD Logroñés was a Spanish club that spent several seasons in La Liga, Spain’s top division, during the 1980s and 1990s. Due to severe financial issues and mounting debts, the club was dissolved in 2009. While a new club, UD Logroñés, was created to preserve football in the region, the original CD Logroñés remains a part of history. You may also want to try to place football bets at the 1xBet platform on different Spanish football clubs too.
