A bit of history:
Sivasspor was founded in May 1967, as many Anatolian towns decided to install local football teams. The team was allowed to start in the Turkish Second League of that time. It took Sivasspor until 2005 to promote to the Turkish Super League. With good and constant performances they became 8th in their first season and 7th in their second. Their third season was until now, their most successful. Because of that, Sivasspor is now considered the Fifth Bigger Team of Turkey alongside Galatasaray SK, Fenerbahçe SK, Beşiktaş JK and Trabzonspor, as they finished the first half of the season on first place. Even with the team struggling with a number of injuries and bad playgrounds, due to the harsh winters in the city of Sivas, they managed it to go for the records. On Saturday 26th of April, the 33rd week of the Season 2007/08, the team maintained the title "Fifth Team to lift up 22 league victories" in the history of the Turkish Super League. They finished this season on 4th position after Besiktas and Fenerbahce. All three have 73 points on their tableau. Ironically Sivas now has to go for the Intertoto Cup Qualifying. Still it is unsure if Beşiktaş JK will maintain it's 3rd place after Sivas is now appealing to the UEFA.
