Perspective
Football Club Meux was founded shortly after the end of World War II and became affiliated with the Royal Belgian Football Association (KBVB).[3] They were registered with matricule 4454 and began playing at the lowest regional level.[4] The club's first honour was a victory in the Coupe de la Province de Namur in 1966. The club played in the provincial divisions for half a century. In 1997, Meux won the title in the First Provincial Division and were promoted for the first time in their history to the Belgian Fourth Division, the fourth and lowest national level.[5]
In their first season in national football, the club which had since become Royal Football Club Meux, finished in eighth place. The next season, the club ranked second to last, a position synonymous with relegation to the provincial divisions. The following years were spent as a yo-yo club between the highest regional tier and the lowest national tier.[3]
In the 2010s, the club's results improved and after failing to win promotion two consecutive seasons in fifth place,[6] the team clinched the title in the Fourth Division in 2016, the first title at national level in the club's history.[7][8] Thanks to this, the club could maintain themselves at the new fourth national level, which took the name of Belgian Second Amateur Division from the 2016–17 season.[9]
In 2024–25, Meux secure promotion to Belgian Division 1 from next season after finishing second place ACFF due to promotion play-off.
