'''Athletic Club Omonia Nicosia''' ([[Greek language|Greek]]: Αθλητικός Σύλλογος Ομόνοια Λευκωσίας) is a [[Cyprus|Cypriot]] [[football (soccer)|football]] club, which plays in the capital, [[Nicosia]]. With 19 league championships and 12 [[Cyprus Cup|Cypriot Cups]] and 14 [[Cyprus FA Shield|Super Cups]] they are the country's most-titled club in football together with [[APOEL_FC|APOEL]]. In addition, Omonia have claimed a record five domestic [[The Double|doubles]] - in 1972, 1974, 1981, 1982 and 1983. The Cyprus Football Association declared them as the Team of the [[20th century]]. Omonia also remains the only team to have won the Cyprus Cup 4 times in a row during the years between 1980 and 1984.
 
'''Athletic Club Omonia Nicosia''' ({{langx|el|Αθλητικός Σύλλογος Ομόνοια Λευκωσίας}}; ''Athlitikós Sýllogos Omónoia Lefkosías''), commonly known as '''Omonia Nicosia''', or simply '''Omonia''' (also [[Romanization of Greek|transliterated]] as '''Omonoia'''), is a [[Cyprus|Cypriot]] professional multi-sport club, established on 4 June 1948 in [[Nicosia]]. It is best known for its [[Association football|football]] department, which has participated in the [[Cypriot First Division]] since 1953. On 14 June 2018, the football department of AC Omonia became a professional for-profit football company, and is since known as '''Omonia FC'''.<ref name=":1">{{cite web |last=Psyllides |first=George |date=2018-05-30 |title=Historic turn as Omonia taken over by private company |url=https://cyprus-mail.com/2018/05/30/historic-turn-as-omonia-taken-over-by-private-company/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210122231430/https://cyprus-mail.com/2018/05/30/historic-turn-as-omonia-taken-over-by-private-company/ |archive-date=22 January 2021 |access-date=2019-07-19 |website=Cyprus Mail |language=en-GB}}</ref>
 
Omonia is one of Cyprus' most successful [[Football team|football clubs]], having won 21 [[Cypriot First Division|National Championships]], 16 [[Cypriot Cup|Cups]], and a record 17 [[Cypriot Super Cup|Super Cups]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/cypsupcuphist.html |title=Cyprus – List of Super Cup Finals |access-date=2015-11-11 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151019045239/http://www.rsssf.com/tablesc/cypsupcuphist.html |archive-date=19 October 2015 }}</ref> Omonia has won five [[Double (association football)|doubles]] and a record three domestic [[Treble (association football)|trebles]], and is one of three Cypriot clubs to never have been relegated to the [[Cypriot Second Division|second division]]. Omonia also holds an outstanding record of 14 championships in two decades (between 1970 and 1989), a record of being either champion or runner-up 14 times in a row in the championship (between 1973 and 1986), and the record of having won the Cypriot Cup four times in a row (between 1980 and 1983).
 
AC Omonia also operates departments in [[Omonia B.C.|basketball]], [[Omonia V.C.|volleyball]], [[Omonia Futsal|futsal]], cycling, runners, women's football and women's volleyball.<ref>{{cite web |title=AC Omonia |url=https://www.acomonia.com/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220711095321/https://www.acomonia.com/ |archive-date=11 July 2022 |access-date=2022-07-21 |website= |language=en}}</ref>
 
The club was established in [[1948]] and became member of [[Cyprus Football Association]] in [[1953]]. As an athletic club, Omonia has [[basketball]], [[volleyball]], [[futsal]] and [[cycling]] sections.
==History==
===Cyprus Amateur Football Association===
AC Omonia was founded in 1948, just after the [[Second World War]]. The establishment of the Club (along with that of a few others), was evoked from the political turbulence of that period and the conflict between left-wings and right-wings due to the [[Greek Civil War]]. In May 1948, [[APOEL Nicosia]] sent a letter based on political content to SEGAS (Greek Gymnastic-Athletic Clubs Association), violating the club's statute to not be involved in politics. After that letter, several footballers of the club criticized the their club but that followed the expulsion of those players from the team. Those players with some other people established the new club of Nicosia, with the name Athletic Club Omonia Nicosia.
 
=== Creation and early years (1948–1953) ===
The Greek Civil War affected Cyprus in the political fanaticism and patience and affected the political life of the island, as well as the sports. For that reason several clubs were established and together with Omonia they established the Cyprus Amateur Football Association, since those teams were not accepted as members of the Cyprus Football Association. The new association formed its own competitions, a championship and a cup and lasted until 1953. Omonia won the double of those competitions until 1952 (four consecutive doubles) and won the cup in 1953.
On 23 May 1948, the governing board of [[APOEL FC|APOEL]] football club sent a telegram to the [[Hellenic Association of Amateur Athletics]] (Greek: Σ.Ε.Γ.Α.Σ.), with the opportunity of the annual Panhellenic Track and Field Competition. In its telegram, the board stated its wish for what it described as the "communist mutiny" to be ended. Club players considering this action as a specifically political comment on the [[Greek Civil War]] distanced themselves from the board and were duly expelled from APOEL.<ref>{{cite web |title=Η αρχή της πολιτικοποίησης του ποδοσφαίρου: 60 χρόνια από τα γεγονότα του 1948 που οδήγησαν στη διάσπαση του κυπριακού ποδοσφαίρου |trans-title=The beginning of the politicization of football: 60 years since the events of 1948 that led to the division of Cypriot football |url=http://magazine.apopsi.com.cy/2008/07/281 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160622154922/http://magazine.apopsi.com.cy/2008/07/281 |archive-date=22 June 2016 |access-date=31 May 2016 |language=el}}</ref> On 4 June 1948, Dr. Mattheos Papapetrou organized a meeting in Nicosia that led to the creation of Omonia. Many players expelled from APOEL were present at the meeting and joined the new club. Along with other left-wing teams such as [[Nea Salamina]], [[Alki Larnaca]] and [[Orfeas Nicosia]], Omonia helped create the [[Cyprus Amateur Football Federation]] in December 1948. Omonia took part in the CAFF league until 1953, having won four out of five played championships and five out of five played cups. Omonia was then accepted by the [[Cyprus Football Association]] to participate in the [[Cypriot First Division]].
 
===Beginnings in the Cypriot First Division (1953–1969)===
===Trophy Hall===
After joining the Cypriot First Division in 1953, Omonia only placed seventh out of nine teams in the 1953–54 season, barely avoiding relegation. During that decade, the club's best placing came during the 1956–57 season when the club finished in the third position.
In 1953, the Cyprus Amateur Football Association teams were accepted to become members of the [[Cyprus Football Association]], including AC Omonia, who joined as a First Division team. The Club announced its arrival on the Cypriot football scene by winning their first league title in 1960/61. Omonia finished seven points above second-placed [[Anorthosis Famagusta FC]] that season - and they have subsequently stayed ahead of their rivals in the [[Cypriot First Division|first division]] with an impressive hall of trophies.
 
The team would make its closest push for the title during the 1959–60 season after finishing second, one point behind [[Anorthosis Famagusta FC|Anorthosis Famagusta]].<ref name="ReferenceA">{{cite web |url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/cyphist.html |title=Cyprus – List of Final Tables 1931-1998 |access-date=23 April 2011 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030404073214/http://www.rsssf.com/tablesc/cyphist.html |archive-date=4 April 2003 }}</ref> The following year, after seven seasons in the First Division, the club would win its first title in 1960–61 season.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> Omonia, in that season, would score 91 goals in 24 matches on their way to their first ever Cyprus First Division title. Omonia won their second title during the 1965–66 season.
===The golden decades of 1970s-1980s===
Omonia Nicosia's dominance in Cypriot football, however, didn't come until 1974. They were most dominant in the [[1970s]], winning the league for six consecutive seasons from 1974 to [[1979 in football (soccer)|1979]], a record that until today remains unbeaten. It was then that Omonia produced one of Cyprus's greatest footballers in striker [[Sotiris Kaiafas]], as well as the impressive Gregory Savvas. Kaiafas would win the [[European Golden Boot]] after finishing as [[Europe]]'s top domestic scorer in [[1976]] with 39 goals - an accolade still consWQidered the greatest achievement by any Cypriot player. Allegations of fixing the results were largely circulated. After Kaiafas, the next great striker of the team was Spas Tsevizof.
 
===Golden era (1970s–1980s)===
Despite the gap in quality between Omonia and other European champions, Omonia proved to be worthy opponents in [[UEFA]] club competition. In the [[European Champion Clubs' Cup]] in [[European Cup 1979-80|1979/80]], they recovered from a 10-0 defeat at [[AFC Ajax]] to win the return leg 4-0 with a dazzling display in Nicosia.
After the departure of Kaiafas, Omonia continued to produce talented players to keep up their winning ways. They were champions from 1981 to 1985 and again in 1987 and 1989. Stars of the [[1980s]] golden decade were Georgios Savvidis and Spas Dzhevizov.
 
[[File:Sotiris Kaiafas.jpg|thumbnail|[[Sotiris Kaiafas]] is not only considered one of Omonia's all-time greatest, but the best footballer in the history of Cypriot football.]]
===1990s===
Omonia won its first trophies of the decade in 1972, when the club won both the league and the cup. Led by a young [[Sotiris Kaiafas]], Omonia won seven league titles in the 1970s, six of them were consecutive (1974–1979).<ref name="ReferenceA"/> At the end of the decade, Omonia had a total of nine championship titles and three cups. At the end of the 1979 season, Omonia trailed its arch-rival APOEL by two championships. In 1976, Sotiris Kaiafas would go on and win the [[European Golden Shoe]] for his single-season 39-goal performance.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/association=cyp/news/newsid=144838.html|title=Member associations – Cyprus – News – UEFA.com|last=uefa.com|date=21 January 2011|access-date=11 April 2014|archive-date=13 April 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140413130703/http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/association=cyp/news/newsid=144838.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> In 2003, he was awarded the [[UEFA Jubilee Awards]] for the Best Cypriot Footballer of the 20th century.
But despite claiming the title in 1992/[[1993 in football (soccer)|93]], Omonia were forced to live in the shadow of [[Anorthosis Famagusta|Anorthosis]] in the [[1990s]]. Even so, the fans were able to enjoy the goalscoring exploits of [[Hungary|Hungarian]] Joseph Juriac during the first part of the decade, and later those of [[Rainer Rauffmann]].
 
The 1980s was a successful decade for the club as it won an additional seven Cypriot League Championship titles including another five consecutive in 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, and in 1987 and in 1989.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> As the 1980s came to an end, Omonia had won 14 Cypriot championship titles, becoming the most successful team on the island at the time.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>
A native [[Germany|German]], Rauffmann arrived at the club in 1998. He was the island's leading marksman for four years and also played for [[Cyprus national football team]] after gaining Cypriot citizenship. He recently retired through injury at the age of 37. Another star of the [[1990s]] was midfield player Kostakis Malekkos, who played after for [[APOEL FC|APOEL Nicosia FC]].
 
===TrophiesGeneral againdecline (1990s)===
The 1990s would prove to be less successful than the previous two decades. During this time, Omonia only mustered one Cypriot League title during the 1992–93 season. It would be eight years before Omonia would see its next title. In 1997, Omonia signed the German [[Rainer Rauffmann]], who would later become the second top goalscorer ever for the club. With the help of other Omonia great and then captain, [[Costas Malekkos]], and a young [[Costas Kaiafas]] (the son of Sotiris Kaiafas), Rauffmann would become top scorer of the Cypriot First Division in 1997–98, 1998–99, 1999–00 and 2000–01 seasons and led Omonia to two titles.<ref name="e-soccer.gr">{{cite web |title=Πρωταθλητές Κύπρου |trans-title=Champions of Cyprus |url=http://www.e-soccer.gr/-proistoria-833/-proistoria-457/-proistoria-471 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110905065403/http://www.e-soccer.gr/-proistoria-833/-proistoria-457/-proistoria-471 |archive-date=5 September 2011 |access-date=8 September 2011 |website=e-soccer.gr |language=el}}</ref>
However, it was not until the 1999/[[2000 in football (soccer)|00]] campaign that Omonia ended a six-year wait for silverware by lifting the Cypriot Cup. As well as rewarding the patience of supporters, this success maintained the club's strong cup tradition. The Nicosia side remains the only side to have won the Cyprus Cup 4 times in a row during the years between 1980 and 1984.
 
===Revival (2000s)===
The next term, the championship flag was restored to Omonia. Following Henk Houwaart's arrival as coach midway through the season, the team climbed the table to claim the title after beating defending champions Anorthosis 3-1 in what was effectively a championship decider. Further glory followed in 2002/03 when coach [[Toni Savevski]] led the club to their 19th league triumph. Omonia won the Cyprus Cup in 2004/[[2005 in football (soccer)|05]]. However, after the success gap, the team remained the following years in the second position without winning any trophy.
After a disappointing eight seasons, the 2000s decade began with a trophy. Omonia celebrated its 18th Cypriot league championship title in 2001. Now captained by [[Kostas Kaiafas|Costas Kaiafas]], Omonia would win its 19th Cypriot League Championship again in 2003. Since 2003, however, the team would stumble and be without a title for the next several years. After numerous seasons of poor signings and underachieving, Omonia's reigns would be taken over by new chairman and team president, Miltiadis Neophytou in 2008.
 
[[File:M.Konstantinou (Omonia Nicosia).JPG|thumbnail|[[Michalis Konstantinou]], mostly credited for helping the team reach its 20th championship title.<ref>{{cite web |title=Μιχάλης Κωνσταντίνου: Η μεγάλη επιστροφή |trans-title=Michalis Konstantinou: The big return |url=http://simerini.com.cy/lifestyle/people/115654 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140413142203/http://simerini.com.cy/lifestyle/people/115654 |archive-date=13 April 2014 |access-date=2014-04-11 |language=el}}</ref>]]
Omonia Nicosia's success in Cypriot football also brought the [[Kicker (sports magazine)|German Sports Magazine Kickers]] to vote Omonia Nicosia as one of the top 100 clubs in the World.
The team would soon be put back on track starting in 2006, beginning with the signing of [[Cyprus national football team|Cyprus international]] goalkeeper [[Antonis Georgallides]]. Omonia would continue its star-studded signings by acquiring Cypriot stars that had been playing abroad, such as [[Elias Charalambous]] and [[Stathis Aloneftis]]. Omonia would then make headlines with the shocking signing of all-time leading scorer for Cyprus, [[Michalis Konstantinou]]. In 2009, Omonia would also sign another Cypriot star, [[Konstantinos Makrides]]. En route, Omonia would also acquire young Cypriot hopefuls, 21-year-old [[Dimitris Christofi]] and 20-year-old [[Georgios Efrem]]. Efrem, who had been playing on the youth team of [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] and later Scottish side [[Rangers F.C.|Rangers]], would be the final piece to the puzzle needed to win its 20th Cypriot league championship. After putting the proper pieces in place, Omonia did just that. During the 2009–10 season, led by the new captain, Elias Charalambous, Omonia would not lose a single derby, including play-off matches against APOEL, Anorthosis and Apollon.
 
Head coach [[Takis Lemonis]] left the club after disappointing results and [[Dušan Bajević]] became the new coach in October 2010,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://msn.foxsports.com/foxsoccer/soccer/story/Dusan-Bajevic-new-coach-of-Cyprus-champion-Omonia-86335597|title=Soccer|website=FOX Sports|access-date=27 May 2014|archive-date=4 September 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220904172845/https://www.foxsports.com/soccer/mls|url-status=live}}</ref> but was fired in April 2011.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/soccer/2011-04-14-1078563094_x.htm|title=Omonia Nicosia fires coach Dusan Bajevic|publisher=USATODAY|date=14 April 2011|access-date=14 March 2020|archive-date=11 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160311071310/http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/soccer/2011-04-14-1078563094_x.htm|url-status=live}}</ref> He was replaced by [[Neophytos Larkou]].

The club, however, was able to finish the season on a positive note: under Larkou, Omonia defeated [[Apollon Limassol FC|Apollon Limassol]] in the Cypriot Cup final to win their 13th cup title.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cfa.com.cy/Gr/kofixtures/78/138/15/2010-2011|title=Πρόγραμμα & Αποτελέσματα – Κύπελλο Κόκα – Κόλα Α' – Β' Κατηγορίας 2010/2011|website=cfa.com.cy|access-date=27 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171117005712/http://www.cfa.com.cy/Gr/kofixtures/78/138/15/2010-2011|archive-date=17 November 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref>
==Colours and badge==
 
The badge of the club is the [[shamrock]]. The shamrock represents the strength, the struggle, the insistence of the Omonia founders who were in difficult situation and it is also green which is the colour of the hope. Thus, the colours of the club are the green and the white. The Omonia founders chose the green colour, the "hope's colour", because despite that they were in difficult situation after the political events that took place in Cyprus in 1948 with their expulsion from APOEL, they hoped that better days were coming for the football in Cyprus, and also the new club, Omonia, would have leaded, become poineer and triumph in Cypriot football and also would have been in the conscience of the Cypriot people.
The following season, Omonia won their 14th cup starring [[André Alves]], who scored the winning goal against [[AEL Limassol]] in the final.<ref>{{cite web |title=Omonia Cup winners in Cyprus |url=http://www.parikiaki.com/2012/05/omonia-cup-winners-in-cyprus/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140527211931/http://www.parikiaki.com/2012/05/omonia-cup-winners-in-cyprus/ |archive-date=27 May 2014 |access-date=27 May 2014 |website=parikiaki.com}}</ref> Under the guidance of newly appointed director of football Nickolas Danskalou, Omonia finished third in the league, all but assuring they would qualify for the second round of the [[2012–13 UEFA Europa League]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cfa.com.cy/En/competitionstage/87/178/14/2011-2012|title=Standings – Laiki Bank Championship 2011/2012 -|website=cfa.com.cy|access-date=27 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923202237/http://www.cfa.com.cy/En/competitionstage/87/178/14/2011-2012|archive-date=23 September 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref>
 
===Financial crisis (2012–2018)===
Head coach [[Neophytos Larkou]] left the club in September 2012<ref>{{cite web |date=19 September 2012 |title=Omonia manager quits |url=http://www.parikiaki.com/2012/09/omonia-sack-manager-2/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140527212911/http://www.parikiaki.com/2012/09/omonia-sack-manager-2/ |archive-date=27 May 2014 |access-date=27 May 2014 |website=parikiaki.com}}</ref> and [[Toni Savevski]] was then appointed as coach. The team began the season with a great win but found its second success after several games. A disappointing first round proved enough to exclude the club from contesting for the championship or the cup. The team managed better results in the second round, finishing the season in third place.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cfa.com.cy/En/competitionstage/111/218/13/2012-2013|title=Standings – First Division Championship 2012/2013 -|website=cfa.com.cy|access-date=27 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923202219/http://www.cfa.com.cy/En/competitionstage/111/218/13/2012-2013|archive-date=23 September 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref> Thousands of fans answered the president's call to donate as much as they could and the financial issues of the club improved. Omonia was knocked out in the semi-finals of the cup by AEL Limassol.

===Papastavrou era (2018–present)===
The decline of the club's football department and the financial difficulties it faced convinced many that a change in the way the club was being run was needed.

Omonoia Nicosia was created in 1948 by left-wing players forced out of other teams in Cyprus after refusing to sign a pledge denouncing the Greek left during the [[Greek civil war]].<ref name="peoplesworld"/> That identity stuck with the team throughout its history, and Omonia supporters are known for their left-leaning, socialist character, with many stating that they associate themselves with the [[Progressive Party of Working People]]. Omonia is also traditionally regarded as the club of "the people" and Cyprus' working class. Many of Omonia's supporters can be seen waving banners bearing [[Che Guevara]]'s image.<ref name="peoplesworld">{{cite web |last=Bono |first=Gary |date=2011-10-03 |title=Omonoia: Feisty team blends sports and left politics |url=https://www.peoplesworld.org/article/omonoia-feisty-team-blends-sports-and-left-politics/ |access-date=2022-07-13 |website=People's World |language=en-US |archive-date=18 July 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210718043419/https://www.peoplesworld.org/article/omonoia-feisty-team-blends-sports-and-left-politics/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
 
====Financial crisis and 2013 Pan-Cypriot fundraiser====
By the end of February 2013, Omonia was struggling to meet the UEFA criteria due to the economic crisis that had engulfed the club. The club's president then decided to start a fundraiser and called for the supporters of the club to donate as much as they could. Hundreds of events were organised island wide with the motto; "ΕΙΜΑΙ ΟΜΟΝΟΙΑ ΔΗΛΩΝΩ ΠΑΡΩΝ" meaning, "I'M WITH OMONIA, I DECLARE MYSELF PRESENT."<ref>{{cite web |title=Είμαι Ομόνοια, δηλώνω παρών |trans-title=I'm with Omonia, I declare myself present |url=https://www.sigmalive.com/sports/football/cyprus/a+league/522026 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140418220717/http://www.sigmalive.com/sports/football/cyprus/a+league/522026 |archive-date=18 April 2014 |access-date=14 March 2020 |website=sigmalive.com |language=el}}</ref> Current and former players contributed by signing autographs and selling club merchandise. Although the situation at the beginning was described as grim, money poured in from all over the island and from abroad including England and the United States. In about a month and a half, €3.5 million was collected from the club's supporters.{{citation needed|date=March 2020}}
 
On 29 May 2018, the club agreed to turn its football department into a for-profit company, under the ownership of Stavros Papastavrou.<ref>{{cite web |date=2019-04-20 |title=Ομόνοια: Υπερψηφίστηκε με ποσοστό 97% η πρόταση Παπασταύρου! |trans-title=Omonia: 97% voted in favour of Papastavrou's proposal! |url=https://www.24sports.com.cy/gr/sports/podosfairo/kypros/a-katigoria/omonoia/omonoia-yperpsifistike-i-protasi-papastayroy-pics |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190420184130/https://www.24sports.com.cy/gr/sports/podosfairo/kypros/a-katigoria/omonoia/omonoia-yperpsifistike-i-protasi-papastayroy-pics |archive-date=20 April 2019 |access-date=2022-07-13 |website=24sports}}</ref> Gate 9 had previously condemned the idea and published several statements criticising it.<ref>{{cite web |last= |date=2018-03-31 |title=ΘΥΡΑ 9: "Παρακολουθούμε αποσβολωμένοι τα όσα εκτυλίσσονται τις τελευταίες μέρες" |trans-title=GATE 9: "We are watching in dismay what is unfolding in the last few days" |url=https://omonoianews.com/podosfairo/2018/03/parakolouthoume-aposvolomeni-ta-osa-ektilissonte-tis-teleftees-meres/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220713150531/https://omonoianews.com/podosfairo/2018/03/parakolouthoume-aposvolomeni-ta-osa-ektilissonte-tis-teleftees-meres/ |archive-date=13 July 2022 |access-date=2022-07-13 |website=OmonoiaNews |language=el}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |date=2018-05-14 |title=ΘΥΡΑ 9: "Δεν θα κάτσουμε να παίξουμε το παιχνίδι τους" |trans-title=GATE 9: "We will not sit and play their game" |url=https://omonoianews.com/podosfairo/2018/05/thira-9-den-tha-katsoume-na-pexoume-to-pechnidi-tous/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220713150530/https://omonoianews.com/podosfairo/2018/05/thira-9-den-tha-katsoume-na-pexoume-to-pechnidi-tous/ |archive-date=13 July 2022 |access-date=2022-07-13 |website=OmonoiaNews |language=el}}</ref> On the same day, Gate 9 declared they would no longer support the team, and announced they would create their own football club, which would "respect the principles and history of Omonia".<ref>{{cite web |date=2019-04-20 |title=Ομόνοια: Η μεγάλη απόφαση της Θύρα 9... |trans-title=Omonia: The big decision of Gate 9... |url=http://www.24sports.com.cy/gr/sports/podosfairo/kypros/a-katigoria/omonoia/omonoia-i-megali-apofasi-tis-thyra-9 |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190420182335/http://www.24sports.com.cy/gr/sports/podosfairo/kypros/a-katigoria/omonoia/omonoia-i-megali-apofasi-tis-thyra-9 |archive-date=20 April 2019 |access-date=2022-07-13 |website=24sports |language=el}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Η Θύρα 9 όπως οι ιδρυτές της Ομόνοιας έφυγαν από τον ΑΠΟΕΛ |trans-title=Gate 9 like Omonia's founders left APOEL |url=http://omada.reporter.com.cy/football-cyprus/article/337643/-i-thyra-9-opos-oi-idrytes-tis-omonoias-efygn-apo-ton-apoel |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220904172855/http://omada.reporter.com.cy/football-cyprus/article/337643/-i-thyra-9-opos-oi-idrytes-tis-omonoias-efygn-apo-ton-apoel |archive-date=4 September 2022 |access-date=2022-07-13 |website=Omada Reporter |language=el}}</ref> [[People's Athletic Club Omonia 29M]] was founded on 23 July 2018 and currently plays in the [[Cypriot First Division]].

{{main|GSP Stadium}}
''Main article(s): [[GSP Stadium]], [[Eleftheria Indoor Hall]]''
[[File:GSP Stadium in Nicosia (Omonoia - Manchester City).jpg|thumbnail|Omonia's current stadium, New GSP Stadium]]Since 23 October 1999, Omonia has been using the 22,859-seat [[GSP Stadium|New GSP Stadium]], the largest stadium in Cyprus. They share and rent the stadium with local rival APOEL.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |date=2021-07-14 |title=Ομόνοια: Από το "Γκόουλ" στο Δασάκι, η Μια Μηλιά και οι Χαλεπιανές |trans-title=Omonia: From the "Goal" to the Dasaki, Mia Milia and Chalepianes |url=https://goal.philenews.com/podosfero/kypros/a-katigoria/omonoia/omonoia-apo-to-gkooul-sto-dasaki-i-mia-milia-kai-oi-chalepianes/ |access-date=2023-07-10 |website=Philenews |language=el}}</ref>
{{future stadium|Omonia AC}}
 
Initially, the team played at the Goal Stadium from 1948 to 1953. After joining the [[Cyprus Football Association]], Omonia moved to the [[GSP Stadium (1902)|old GSP Stadium]] in 1953, and then to the [[Makario Stadium]] in 1978, where they played until 1999.<ref name=":2" />
The team's current stadium is the 23,400 seater [[Neo GSP Stadium]], also known as the Pancypria Stadium and it is the biggest stadium in Cyprus. The stadium is shared with APOEL FC, the other major football club in Nicosia, and [[Olympiakos Nicosia]] and they have used it since 1999. The team's previous stadium was [[Makario Stadium]], since 1978 and before that it was the Palaio (Old) GSP Stadium since the 1953, when the team joined the Cyprus Football Association. Both stadiums, like the New GSP Stadium, were shared as well by the other Nicosian teams, APOEL and Olympiakos. In the first years of its establishment, as a team of Cyprus Amature Football Association, Omonia was using the "Goal" Stadium. Plans have been drawn for Omonoia to construct its own privately owned stadium near [[Tseri]], a village just outside Nicosia [http://www.stadiumguide.com/omonia.htm]. The stadium is currently under construction and the new arena will constitute (in terms of spectator capacity) the largest football stadium on the island, with capacity of 32,000 people.
 
=== Plans for the construction of a privately owned stadium ===
The basketball team uses for home the biggest indoor sport venue in the island, the [[Eleftheria Indoor Hall]] with capacity of 6,800 seats and the volleyball team the Lefkotheo Indoor Hall. Lefkotheo is shared with APOEL Nicosia and is used by Omonia since 1980, the year that was built. For the 2006-07, the futsal team uses the Indoor Hall of [[Melkonian institute]] which is inside the institute and has capacity of 500 seats.
The club had initiated the creation of a stadium in [[Haspolat|Mia Milia]] in 1971, but plans were abandoned after the [[Turkish invasion of Cyprus]] in 1974. In 2003, the club purchased a piece of land in Nicosia with the aim of building a stadium, however the property was given to the Bank of Cyprus due to debts of the owner company.<ref name=":2" />
 
In August 2024, having previously spoken about his intention to do so,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Απάντηση Παπασταύρου για το νέο γήπεδο της Ομόνοιας! |trans-title=Papastavrou's answer about Omonia's new stadium! |url=https://sportime.sigmalive.com/podosfairo/kypros/a-katigoria/358726_apantisi-papastayroy-gia-to-neo-gipedo-tis-omonoias |access-date=2023-08-11 |website=Sportime |language=el}}</ref> Omonia FC owner Stavros Papastavrou announced that a new privately owned stadium will be built for the club. The stadium will be located in [[Tseri]], it will have a capacity of 16,000 seats, is expected to be ready for use in the 2028–29 season and along with surrounding premises will cost approximately 60-70 million Euros.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Solutions |first=BDigital Web |title=Ομόνοια: Τοποθεσία, κόστος και ημερομηνία παράδοσης γηπέδου |url=https://www.24sports.com.cy/gr/sports/podosfairo/kypros/a-katigoria/omonoia/omonoia-topothesia-kostos-kai-imerominia-paradosis-gipedoy |access-date=2024-08-20 |website=24sports.com.cy}}</ref>
==The Fans==
Omonia's fans are considered to be left-wing in their majority. Today they are estimated to be around 40% of the Cypriot people. Unlike the other teams of Cyprus, Omonia is so popular that they have today a lot of supporters from all the cities, town and places in Cyprus, especially in [[Limassol]], where they are estimated as the third most supported team after the other town's teams [[Apollon Limassol|Apollon]] and [[AEL FC]]. During the years, after the political crisis in many Cypriot football clubs, where new leftists clubs were founded, the Cyprus Football Amature Federation was having much more attendance in the stadiums than the Cyprus FA championship because of Omonia which was the most popular in the island. The popularity of Omonia was one of the reason that there was the unification of Cypriot football and the acceptance of the leftists teams in the Cyprus Football Association.
 
==Kit manufacturers and shirt sponsors==
The team had big difference in the attendances since it existed than the other teams in Cyprus and every stadium that the team had for home until today the GSP Stadium were considered too small for the team. In many matches ticket were sold in few hours after they were being available for sale, especially in matches against the arch-rival APOEL Nicosia.
