FC St. Gallen is a Swiss football club based in the city of St. Gallen in the canton of the same name. It was founded in 1879 making it the oldest football club in Switzerland. In 2008, the AFG Arena, located on the west side of town, replaced the Espenmoos ground in the east end. The club is proud to be the second oldest club in Continental Europe, founded in 1879.
FC St. Gallen turned to 41-year-old former Bulgaria midfielder Krasimir Balakov to take over from Rolf Fringer following his sacking in October 2007. He joined the bottom-placed team and signed a contract until the end of the season after having parted company with their Swiss rivals Grasshopper-Club at the end of the 2006-2007 season.
