Football Club St. Gallen 1879 is a Swiss football club based in St. Gallen. The club is currently playing in the 2012/13 Swiss Super League.
Brief history
Having been founded on 19 April 1879, FC St. Gallen are the oldest still existing club in Swiss football.[citation needed] However, the team has had relatively little success in comparison to other clubs. Despite the fact that St. Gallen won the Swiss championship twice in the 1903–04 and 1999–2000 seasons, the team has mostly been a mid-table side. During the last decade, the strength of the club continually declined and this eventually resulted in the transformation to a yo-yo club. St. Gallen were relegated to the second-tier Challenge League twice at the end of the 2007–08 and the 2010–11 seasons.
Stadium
FC St. Gallen play their home games at the AFG Arena. The stadium has a capacity of 19'694 and it is on the west side of town. The stadium replaced the former Espenmoos stadium in the east.
