The club was founded on October 1, 1889. Haarlem won the Dutch national title in 1946 and has reached five Dutch cup finals, winning in 1902 and 1912 and losing in 1911, 1914 and 1950. Haarlem won the title in the Eerste Divisie in 1972, 1976 and 1981. In 1982, HFC Haarlem, featuring a young Ruud Gullit, qualified for UEFA Cup football, in which they were eliminated by Spartak Moscow in the second round (the match hosted by Spartak is known in Russia because of the Luzhniki disaster that occurred in the stadium after the game). In 1990, Haarlem was relegated to the Eerste Divisie again, in which they have played ever since.
On January 25, 2010, Haarlem was declared bankrupt and was thus according to Dutch league rules excluded from competition, with all its previous results in the ongoing competition being scrapped.[1] The club in its current form will cease to exist, with all its players (and staff) becoming free agents. It is not yet known if the club, with its current matricule, will start over in a lower league.
