Angers SCO is one of the oldest French clubs, currently playing in the country's top-tier league, Ligue 1. Tucked away in Western France, they have always stayed out of the spotlight, unlike the country's giants like PSG, Lille, and Marseille, who are always at the centre of the attraction. Founded in 1919, Angers FC have witnessed everything - promotions, relegations and some memorable periods. Based in Angers' Pays de la Loire, the French side has now featured in 31 seasons of Ligue 1 so far, a feat that reflects their tough mentality.
The Angers SCO stadium, Stade Raymond Kopa, is the place where their fans' raw emotion and passion come to the fore in a buzzing atmosphere. As the Ligue 1 side is not a big club and represents only the local community of a certain region of Western France, there is never a dull patch in terms of gaining support. The Angers SCO owners, the Chabane Family have ensured that their club does not face any issues in getting the financial and moral support in their journey. Emerging through humble beginnings, Le SCO symbolises the soul of football-loving masses in France. Throughout the Angers FC history, the club have never failed to dream big, taking the fight to their big opponents despite being underdogs.
