History
Founded at 1975, Football club Cetinje started as a team of printing house Obod.[1] So, the first name of the club was FK Štampar. From 1978, the team participated under the name FK Tara, and since 1991 its name changed to FK Cetinje. Club is coming from the town with strong football tradition, and their neighbouring FK Lovćen is the oldest Montenegrin sports club and member of Montenegrin First League.[2]
First significant success, the team made on season 1980-81, by winning the champions' title in Fourth League - Southern region, gaining promotion to Montenegrin Republic League.[3]
During the eighties and nineties, FK Cetinje spent seasons in third and fourth rank of domestic competition, but always in the shadow of the oldest city rival - FK Lovćen.
After Montenegrin independence, FK Cetinje became a member of Montenegrin Third League, where they spent three consecutive seasons. On season 2009-10, they won a title in Third League - Southern Region, but with defeats against FK Iskra and FK Pljevlja in playoffs didn't succeed to qualify for Montenegrin Second League.
Historical success came on season 2012-13. FK Cetinje won another title in Third League, but this time won playoffs against FK Pljevlja and FK Kom.[4] With that result, FK Cetinje for the first time gained promotion to Second League. First game in Second League, they played on 18 August 2013 in Cetinje against FK Igalo (1:0).
After two second-tier seasons spent in the middle of the table, FK Cetinje made notable success during the 2015-16 edition. After autumn half-season, they finished as a leader of Second League, but during the spring FK Cetinje lost a first-place struggle against FK Jedinstvo and finished second. With that result, FK Cetinje qualified for their first performance in Montenegrin First League playoffs, where they met OFK Petrovac. After goalless draw on Cetinje, OFK Petrovac won second game (1-0), so FK Cetinje remained a member of Second League.
