[History in professional football edit ]
HFC Haarlem was founded on October 1, 1889, presumably by Piet Charbon who was Haarlem's first captain and president. HFC Haarlem played its first game on October 20, 1889 against ADSP-Excelsior (2-0 win). Jaap Eden was also briefly a member of HFC Haarlem.

In 1954, HFC Haarlem joined the professional football . The first season was marked by division. At the end of the first year playing professional football Haarlem NOAD from Tilburg two jump races for a place in thepremier league . Haarlem lose and come the following year in the first division . In the years after that, especially in the second division and played first division, to the promotion to the Premier League in the season 1968- 1969 . Then followed a period of 21 years (mid 1969-mid 1990) which, with the exception of three years (seasons 1971-1972, 1975-1976 and 1980-1981), was constantly played in the league.

In the season 1980-1981 Haarlem was champion of the first division. In season was 1981-1982, with the young Ruud Gullit (1979-1982) in the ranks, even through a 4th place in the league won European football (goal difference +16 (57-41)). The first round in the Europa Cup III tournament (UEFA Cup) in season 1982-1983 Haarlem survived against the Belgian KAA Gent . In the second round the red trousers were eliminated by Spartak Moscow during the away match at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow took the Luzhniki disaster site. These were officially 66 people died, but spectators at the match, however, have much larger numbers of victims. In the season 1983-1984 Haarlem again finished on the 4th place in the league, however, was that this season no right to European football.

In the season 1989-1990 Haarlem relegated to the first division. The few remaining faithful had to wait until the 1995-1996 season at some live from the club.

In the closing stages of the game will be goalkeeper Mark Verzijlberg by coach Ben Hendriks sent it forward. Verzijlberg chasing the leather with a turn around its longitudinal axis in the cross behind Albert van der Sleen. The winning goal goes through CNN around the world.

In the 2004-2005 season Haarlem seems quite awhile back alive. The club is based on Roy Wesseling taken a different path. "Football in its possibilities" Wesseling calls how Haarlem gets opponents initially on the knees. On October 1, celebrates its 115th anniversary as Haarlem, the later champion Heracles Almelo in house with 0-4 records. Haarlem, however, that season no further than 13th place. In the 2005-2006 season, everything else at Haarlem. A large handful of new players and a whole new coaching staff cause a stir by in the first game of the season as the favorite degraded and the County treat to a 3-0 defeat. Appearances seem to cheat, because Haarlem is after 14 rounds on a 19th place. The resurrection is also remarkable. Haarlem grabs alongside the 3rd period where a victory on TOP Oss at the beginning of the period would have been sufficient. The 4th period begins on the nose of the Haarlem passed on goal difference. On 17 February 2006, after 25 years finally have hit for the Red Pants.

In November 2009 the club announced through a press statement from the council of members known that threatened to bankrupt December 1 to go, unless an amount of 3 to 6 within weeks tons touted. The club had, besides a debt of EUR 1 million, a claim by the tax authorities of 2 tons. [3] Both the city of Haarlem as Ajax, which HFC Haarlem has an alliance, refused for the deficits run on.

New Haarlem Football Club Haarlem and fusion [ edit ]
On 22 March 2010, the new amateur club "New Haarlem Haarlem Football Club" was established, with the intention was that it would come out in the 2010-2011 season in amateur. This club could be considered as a continuation of HFC Haarlem, since the plan was that the association by May 1, 2010, the inventory and the brand would take for a sum of 22,500 euros from the bankrupt club. [8] The members of New HFC Haarlem however, agreed in late March with the start of merger talks with HFC Kennemerland that in the second class of amateur playing [9] . On 26 April 2010, the members of both associations decided to merge indeed called Haarlem Kennemerland . Home of the new association was the Haarlem Stadion .

[Nicknames edit ]
"Little Harlem" as HFC Haarlem was called in Haarlem. After all, in Haarlem played a first class club with the name HFC. That HFC ( Koninklijke HFC, founded in 1879) also bore the name "big Haarlem." Until 1897 there was talk about so small and large Haarlem. Until a 5-0 victory of "small Harlem" to "great Haarlem" turned the class difference. "Little Harlem" promoted to the first class and would have two seasons later in the first class derby (4-12-1898) agree "great Haarlem" beat again, this time by 3-1.

The Red Pants has now long been nicknamed HFC Haarlem. Yet there were no sign of red trousers in the early years with the players. Until one day, two players of "small Haarlem" saw red pants hanging in a shop window. The next game, the two men were not only coming in a blue sweater, but with a red trousers on the court. We are talking about the 90s, Haarlem is second division. From that moment on, the term "small Haarlem" less and less used and they now talk about the Red Pants.

[Accommodation edit ]
The first 17 years of the existence of the HFC Haarlem was never about constancy playground. The first three years are the tiles on Parklaan used as back-line and there is hardly a field. The sandy area behind the Hay Market, which is now a state school, is left under pressure from local residents who are tired of the broken windows.

HFC Haarlem in 1893 moved to the forecourt of the Ripperdapark Barracks . Matches are also played on the grounds next to Speyt House (opposite the Ripperdastraat Barracks).

Short time was played near the Old Posthuis Heemstede. However, disagreement with the farmer forced Haarlem 1895-1896 back to the field for the Ripperdapark Barracks.

In Haarlem 1896-1897 season used the fields of HFC Haarlem And so played a year in the Molenwerf.

The "cutthroat den" at the height of where the General Cronjéstraat begins, the three following years there on the home grounds of HFC Haarlem. For spectators was barely room. The minimum size of a field of 45 meters was almost even as the maximum for HFC Haarlem. The nickname owes "it to the cutthroat den Schoterweg" had the field to the many victories that HFC Haarlem booked here.

In 1900 Haarlem has to do it in a year to the Molenwerf (terrain HFC).

In the seasons 1901-1902 and 1902-1903 Haarlem goes to play the Doodweg. The land behind the cemetery (at the Kleverlaan) is rented from a farmer who sells turf. Not infrequently, it also happens that field pieces are sold where Haarlem would play its matches. The lease was terminated after a certain farmer Nelis that more than one third of the playing field has turned into turf.

Haarlem in 1903 moved to the other side of the cemetery (now Soendaplein) In the not too fine terrain is the first case of stadium construction. Although very primitive is for the donors and members booked a long side. The stand was just sitting boards of one row and then not even the entire length of the field.

On October 20, 1907 Haarlem take the field at the Jan Gijzenkade in use. The site ran from the Korteweg (street between current supermarket and town library) at the end of the current 4th field)

In July 1944 the occupiers prohibit any form of relaxation and also Haarlem stadium must believe it. First come barbed wire at the then 2nd field. In time the light poles are placed on safety and a farewell on July 31 before August 1, 1944 from all opstal being demolished on the grounds of Haarlem by the occupiers. In the last months of the war HFC offers the Spanjaardslaan shelter to the red pants. The first years after the war, the grounds at the Spanjaardslaan home to the red pants. In the championship year of HFC Haarlem (1946 so), however, the home match against Ajax finished in the Olympic stadium. The remaining home matches in the championship pool played by the large crowds at the Heemsteedse Sportpark. Once on December 28, 1947 during the match Haarlem - Ajax a stand portion collapses it is decided to finish the remaining games on the Heemsteedse sports park.

In April 1947 explains chairman of Balen Blanken the first sod on the current site of HFC Haarlem.

On September 5, 1948 Haarlem take the stadium at the Jan Gijzenkade back into use. On 19 December that year, the official opening will be performed. "The new stadium" is the widely-known Berlin Walls and the East, West and the lower seating of the current North Stand (2006) are a persistent image. The "hidden" lighting is built later.

In 1969 Haarlem opens its new grandstand on the south side of the stadium.

In late November 1976, the roof and increase the number of places of the north stand ready. The old seats have become pitches and the new part is fitted with seats.

Halfway through the season 1980-1981 Haarlem gets 4 new light poles. At that moment, it is the highest stadium lamps in Netherlands

In February 1986, the current Kick Smit stand in use (then just South Stand).

In the 90s, the stand stands behind the goals are rejected, the same fate was later granted only part of the north stand. Placing chairs doing that last disapproval reversing some years later.
