Cyclops United is a Dutch football club founded on 8 November 2002 by -Cyclops-. It currently plays in division VI.49.

History

Open Eye Stadium, Haarlem
Capacity: 70,000

On 8 November 2002 President Cyclops (then still called RonaldN) took a life-changing decision in taking over bankrupt team AZ Eindhoven. He renamed the club after himself and moved it to his hometown city of Haarlem in the Dutch region Noord-Holland where he had already started to build a small venue for the club's home matches: Cyclops United Arena (which soon was renamed into Open Eye Stadium).

First match

Two days later Cyclops United played their first ever competition match. At home, in front of 6997 enthusiastic fans, Paap Domineert were held to a 2-2 draw. Coach Jordy Weijers fielded the following eleven players in a 4-4-2 formation:

line-up
goal	Ronald Pronk (captain)
defense	Ronald Ritzen	Willem Kamphuis	Joop Jehee	Ben Dijkslag
midfield	Nu'aim al-Nisaburi	Merlijn Nedelkovski	Bobbie Gillebaard	Olav Nouel
attack	Mitchell Ernes		Lukas Baas

Goals: Lukas Baas (48') and Mitchell Ernes (62'). Cyclops United's man of the match: Nu'aim al-Nisaburi.

The first seasons: a slow start

Cyclops United's first match was in round twelve of Dutch season 6. And with two draws and one loss the club finished as fifth in division V.424. But because there was no sixth division level in the Netherlands yet, the team didn't have to play a qualification match. The following seasons President Cyclops didn't do a lot with his team: no friendly matches were played and and no main skill training was received by his players, who therefore only grew older and got a bit more experienced. No wonder the club relegated to VI.401 in season 7 and didn't play any role for the championship there.

The first championships

Not until the middle of season 9 (August 2003) did President Cyclops decide to give more of his valuable time to his club. And it immediately paid off: under the inspiring guidance of player/coach Nu'aim al-Nisaburi all competition matches from week seven on were won, which resulted in Cyclops United winning their first ever title and medal! But still the season was not over. To achieve promotion to V, Cyclops United had to play a qualification match against FC MijnTeam, who had an extremely good goal keeper. But despite that, the Haarlem club scored two goals to make it 2-2 in regular and extra time, so penalties had to decide. Unfortunately, only two CU-players managed to score and promotion had to be postponed.

The next season (10), Cyclops United completely dominated their league, winning the title without any defeats (although they had to come back from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 in their last match) and securing direct promotion to division V!

A higher level

In their first season in V.114, Cyclops United missed the championship by just eleven minutes. Before round 13 the Haarlem team were third, one point behind joint leaders Hollander and FC PAJICMANIA, who had to play eachother that week. The match ended in a draw and CU went into the last round with a comfortable two point lead and a home match against FC Saza. Saza soon lost a player due to injury and CU scored the 1-0 in the 54th minute. And when the visitors lost a midfielder with a red card in the 77th minute, it looked like all festivities could get started. But Mats Engin works in mysterious ways: two minutes later, FC Saza scored the equaliser and Cyclops United had to settle for third place. The biggest disappointment in the clubs history so far.
