A bit of history:
Fotbal Club Rapid Bucureşti is a football club of Bucharest, Romania. It was founded in 1923 by a group of workers of the Griviţa workshops under the name of "Cultural and Sporting Association CFR" (in Romanian: Asociaţia culturală şi sportivă C.F.R.). Rapid won four Romanian championships (in the unofficial, war edition, of 1942, and then in 1967, 1999 and 2003) and the Romanian Cup on thirteen occasions. In 2006, Rapid became an incorporated company, its largest share-holder being George Copos, a wealthy Romanian businessman.
