History
Debut Season and Promotion to V.207
Knighthood FC enjoyed a successful debut season. On 2 June 2014, an 85th-minute winner from Michael Denuelle gave 1st-place Knighthood a valuable 2-1 win over 2nd-place Amarillo Titans at Rasmus Drakskog Memorial Stadium. The following week Knighthood won the reverse fixture 2-0, widening the gap from Titans to 9 points. Knighthood finished the season with a 2-1 away loss, its only loss of the season, to American Centaur.
Knighthood FC were promoted to division V.207 where they were considered underdogs. After a 3-0 loss to Droghte of March in the first round of the U.S. Open Cup, a 1-0 loss to FC BärnCH followed in the opening fixture of the season. On 21 August 2014, Knighthood were eliminated from the Voyager Cup in the second round, following a 2-0 defeat to FC Deez. The club's first league victory of the season came on September 15, a 3-2 home win against Hooders. On October 19, a 7-0 loss to league leaders RIP Wetherby Park confirmed that Knighthood would finish the season in the bottom two and thus be automatically relegated. Knighthood finished the season in 7th place, with a 6-0 win over FC BärnCH being just a minor consolation.
Later Seasons
The following season, Knighthood joined division VI.716. On February 8, with 3 games to go, they officially won the league having an 11-point advantage. At that stage they had a goal record of 105-0. Knighthood finished the season with a goal record of 134-0 in the season, and with eight players finishing in the league's top 10 scorers.
Knighthood was promoted to V.118, once again being considered as an underdog. However, a 1-1 draw with BroncosFC on the last day of the season ensured a 4th place finish and another season in the series.
