Fudbalski Klub Bejbunar (Macedonian: Фудбалски Клуб Бејбунар), commonly referred to as FK Bejbunar or simply Bejbunar, is a professional Macedonian football club based in Ohrid, Republic of Macedonia, that plays in IV.63. Bejbunar was founded in 2006 by Macedonian business magnate, investor, and programmer Ironm.
Bejbunar’s home games are played at Gradski Stadion Bejbunar. The stadium has a total capacity of 65,000.
History
Stadium
The team's stadium is the 65,000 seats Gradski Stadion Bejbunar. The stadium was owned by the club until it was sold to the city council in 2010.
The first game played at the stadium was on 27 September 2006, when Bejbunar lost 4-0 in a friendly match against Flame Dragons. Bejbunar played its first league game in Gradski Stadion Bejbunar on 30 September 2006, losing 1–2 to mmarjan. From an initial capacity of 12,000 spectators, the stadium has undergone several major renovations, most recently in preparation for the matches in the third Macedonian league when its capacity was set to 71,000, all covered with a polycarbonate roof. In the summer of 2012 its capacity has been reduced to 65,000, in order to meet the new standards set by HFA.
Based on the English model for stadiums, Gradski Stadion Bejbunar is specifically designed for football matches, as opposed to many multi-purpose stadiums used in Macedonia. It is therefore renowned in Macedonia for its fantastic atmosphere during matches, thanks to the closeness of the stands to the pitch. The frequent use of flares by supporters contributes to the atmosphere but the practice has occasionally caused problems.
Supporters
Bejbunar is one of the best supported football clubs in Macedonia, according to a research conducted by Macedonian newspaper Македонски Спорт. The main ultras group within the support base is Fishermen (Macedonian: Рибари), and there are 2,645 active members. They are known for being passionate and impulsive, which led to several serious issues in the past, one of them when an away fan was stabbed to death in December 2008. Flares are commonly present and contribute to every home game spectacle, but they have occasionally led to problems, including the abandonment of the third leg of the Macedonian Cup match between Bejbunar and AYCA FC on 16 November 2011, after a flare thrown from the crowd by a Bejbunar supporter struck AYCA's keeper Dzalvidziev on the shoulder.
