Period 1925-2006[edit]

The club was founded in June 1925. Before the WWII, Budućnost won three championships of Montenegro (then 'Zetska banovina') under the Kingdom of Yugoslavia football system. At 1937, because of support to workers' ideas, together with FK Lovćen, FK Budućnost was abandoned by regime of that time. At the period 1925-1937, club was named as RSK Zora, RSK Budućnost and SD Crna Gora (RSK - radnički sportski klub (workers' sport club); SD - sportsko društvo (sports society).
After the war, club was refounded and won the 1946 Montenegrin Republic League, which meant placement to the inaugural season of the Yugoslav First League (1946–47). During the SFR Yugoslavia era, Budućnost played 26 seasons in the First League.
In the same period, the club reached two Yugoslav Cup finals, losing in 1965 to Dinamo Zagreb and in 1977 to Hajduk Split.[2] These two appearances in the Yugoslav Cup finals are considered the greatest achievements of FK Budućnost in the period 1925-2006.

Varvari at a Montenegrin First League home match

Buducnost fans are known as Varvari (Barbarians), a group founded in 1987.[10] The group's traditional colours are blue and white, which are also the colours of all the Budućnost sports clubs. For FK Budućnost Podgorica home games, Varvari occupy the northern stand (Sjever) of the Podgorica city stadium. They also have a reserved stand at the Morača Sports Center, as supporters of KK Buducnost basketball club.[11] The focal point for the group during the late 1990s was the basketball club, which started investing heavily while the football club toiled in the lower half of the table.
Since foundation years, Varvari gained a reputation of violent group, and in the recent history they made a few biggest accidents on the football matches. At First League 2004-05 game Budućnost - Partizan Belgrade, flares, blocks, construction materials and similar objects were thrown from the North stand to the pitch and match was abbandoned for 15 minutes. Year later, game Budućnost - Crvena Zvezda Belgrade was suspended for two hours after home supporters (Varvari) throwed tear gases on the pitch and, after that, attacked visitors' ultras.[12][13] On the spring 2006, there was a crowd violence on the local rivals game Budućnost - Zeta.[14] In the Montenegrin First League, numerous matches of FK Budućnost were suspended due to crowd violence or crowd-invasion to the pitch. During the last seasons, there was an escalation of violence on Montenegrin Derby games.
They are the best organised and largest fan group in Montenegro. According to many fan magazines from the Balkan they are the only fans in Montenegro who are on the level of the largest fan groups from ex-Yugoslavia.[15]
