Olympique de Marseille (also known as l'OM or Marseille) is a football team that plays in Ligue 1, the top level of the French Football League, based in Marseille. Founded in 1899, Marseille is the largest and most successful club in France. They are so far the only French team to have won the UEFA Champions League (in 1993), which rounded off their dominant run of four consecutive Ligue 1 titles. However, the club has not won a major trophy in over a decade. They also suffered from scandalous financial irregularities in 1994 which resulted in relegation from the top flight.
Nonetheless, the team is the best-supported club in France and regularly fill their imposing home of the Stade Vélodrome, which seats 60,013. Marseille's vast support continues to show unwavering and impressive loyalty to the club, despite having several average seasons since their return to the top flight. The fans continue to hope that Marseille will regain its former glory. Marseille also has the largest number of supporters associations outside its region in France. The club's motto is Droit Au But , French for "Straight to the Goal". Nicknamed l'OM - sometimes pronounced phoenetically as l'Ohème, [lo'ɛmɘ] - fans of the club can often be heard chanting "Allez l'OM, allez!" ("Go Marseille, go!").
From 1904 to 1937, l'OM used to play at the Stade de l'Huveaune.The club was the owner of the venue, contrary to its current stadium. L'Huveaune, a time named "Stade Fernand Buisson" in honour of a former rugby player who became deputee was renovated at the beginning of the twenties, thanks to supporter's financial help. He had a capacity of 15000.After 1937, l'OM used this venue under Marcel Leclerc's presidency in order to compel the city of Marseille to lower the rent of Stade Vélodrome and during the renovation of Vélodrome for Euro 1984, during the 1982/83 season. The stadium again underwent redevelopment in time for the 1998 World Cup and was transformed into an immense ground composed of two kop ends (Virage Nord and Virage Sud - North Curve and South Curve) which house the supporters groups as well as the main stand, Jean Bouin, and the imposing Ganay stand. Today, the team regularly fills their impressive home, the Stade Vélodrome, which seats 60,013. Marseille's vast support continues to show unwavering and impressive loyalty to the club, despite having several average seasons since their return to the top flight. The fans continue to hope that Marseille will regain its former glory.
