The club is known as The Dons, The Dandies, The Reds or The Dandy Dons. To the fans, they are called the Red Army. Their home stadium is Pittodrie Stadium. It is one of the first stadiums in the United Kingdom to have all-seater seating. It is also one of Scotland's largest stadiums with a capacity of 22,199. The club plays the so-called Northern Derby with Inverness Caledonian Thistle, who can currently be considered the biggest rivals. Both clubs are in the largest estates in the north of Scotland. The club colours are red and white and are projected both on the jerseys and, of course, in the crest.
This Scottish football club was founded in 1903. It won the top domestic competition for the first time in 1955. It has never been relegated from the competition. The club has won four Scottish League titles, seven Scottish Cups and six Scottish League Cups in its history. Interestingly, it is the only Scottish team to have won two European trophies, both in the 1982/83 season:
It was in the 1980s that the club experienced its most glorious era, when it scored a total of three victories in the domestic top flight competition (in 1980, 1984 and 1985), in addition to the aforementioned competitions. The 1980s is also the time in which the person of Alex Ferguson, former footballer and later coach, is inseparably inscribed in the club's history. He led the club from 1978 to 1986. This world football personality last led the great club Manchester United, with whom he won many trophies, including the Champions League.
Even at present, the club is not doing badly in the domestic competition, although it has not managed to reach the highest standards yet. In three consecutive seasons, namely 2014/15 to 2016/17, it reached the final with Celtic, where it lost to its opponent.
