history [edit ]
While other towns in Nordland county like Narvik, Mo one Rana and Mosjøen had started their football clubs earlier, the larger town of Bodø was without a major football golf club until the latter separate of 1916. The new club was founded as Football Club Glimt ( Glimt meaning flare in English ). One of the founders was Erling Tjærandsen, who besides became the club ‘s inaugural club president and later an honorary baseball club member. ( Tjærandsen was besides known as a football player and skier. ) Glimt ‘s first equal was against Bodø Highschool ( because Glimt was the lone football club in town ). In 1919 Glimt won their first deed : County Champions of Nordland. In the 1920s, Glimt suffered from bad morale and poor finances. At one target, there were talks about merging Glimt into the Ski Club B. & O.I, but following discussions, the intentions were not carried through. The baseball club received an infusion of new encouragement through visiting footballing stars and coaches from southern Norway such as Jørgen Juve in 1929. In the 1930s Glimt besides began training indoors to reduce the impingement of the severe arctic winters. This new approach in the belated 1920s and early 1930s yielded some cocksure results, and Glimt have since been a top club in Northern Norway ( winning nine North-Norwegian championships ) and in Norway overall since the 1970s. Teams from Northern Norway were not allowed to compete in the norwegian cup-competition until 1963. In their first gear appearance in the norwegian FA cup in 1963, Bodø/Glimt managed to get a far as the fourth polish after a home winnings 7–1 over Nordil, and two away wins. The first beating Nidelv ( from Trondheim ) and then a mighty win over Rosenborg. In the fourthly round, Glimt had to play another away bet on, this meter against Frigg from Oslo. Frigg won 2–0 and Glimt was out of the Cup. however, Bodø/Glimt had proven that teams from Northern Norway could play at the lapp level as the southerly teams. It was not until 1972 that northern teams had the right to gain promotion to the norwegian acme division. This was due to the old belief that the teams from Nordland, Troms, and Finnmark could not compete at the same level as the southerly teams. Bodø/Glimt is one of three teams from Northern Norway that have played in the norwegian top division, the others being Tromsø and Mjølner. From 1973 Norway had three-second divisions : two divisions for the southern teams and one for the northern teams. Bodø/Glimt took three years to gain promotion, due to the promotion rules. The first place holders in the two southerly divisions gained instant promotion, but the first put holder in the northern second division had to compete in play-off matches against the two second identify holders from the south. The league-system made a batch of bitterness in the north. This bitterness worsened in 1975 when Bodø/Glimt, as the first base golf club form Northern-Norway, won the norwegian Cup, but did not gain promotion due to the particular play-off rules for the North-Norwegian clubs. In the 1974 and 1975 temper, Bodø/Glimt won their division ( they had played a few draws but no losses ), but hush lost in the play-offs. In 1976, Bodø/Glimt managed at last to beat the league-system with a 4–0 acquire over Odd and a 1–1 draw against Lyn, making Glimt the second base North-Norwegian team to gain promotion to the top division, after FK Mjølner ‘s promotion in 1971. not until the belated 1970s the Norwegian Football Association changed the promotion rules, the play-off matches for Northern clubs were dropped. From then on there was no dispute where a club had its home-ground. After a brilliant top-division debut in 1977 — second base place in the league and the cup, both against Lillestrøm — Bodø/Glimt played four seasons at the top level before relegation in 1980, finishing last at 12th place. The 1980s were the darkest hours in the club history, with Bodø/Glimt playing in the 2nd division and the regional 3rd part. For a couple of years in the mid-1980s, they were n’t tied the best team in Bodø, with rivals Grand Bodø surpassing them in the standings. But the tide turned in 1991. With coach Jan Muri in charge, Glimt was promoted to 1st division. The following season they hired Trond Sollied as coach, and the team won the 1st division in the 1992 season. At last, in 1993, Bodø/Glimt was back in the top-division, and as in the debut season of 1977 they took irregular set in the league. This meter they besides managed to win the cup final ( a 2–0 win over Strømsgodset ). The Cup-Championship was the crown of three remarkable seasons, going from 2nd division to 2nd place in the top-division in only three years — an accomplishment rarely seen in the Norwegian league system. Since the reentering in the top-division Bodø/Glimt have had a rather strange performance-chart. A good league performance one season have normally been followed with about relegation the next season is illustrated with the 1993 and 1994 seasons when Glimt won the cup and became league runner-up, in 1994 a better goal-difference allowed Bodø/Glimt to stay in the top division .
Runar Berg was until 2010 a midfielder and key player for the team, with almost 500 matches played for Bodø/Glimt. Another model of the rollercoaster ride of Bodø/Glimt league performance is the 2003 and 2004 seasons. In 2003 season the club finished ball carrier up behind the league ‘s valedictorian Rosenborg. The team besides lost the 2003 norwegian Cup Final to Rosenborg. In the 2004 season Glimt finished third base stopping point and had to play a two-game reservation match against Kongsvinger to avoid delegating. Glimt lost the first game 0–1 in Kongsvinger, but soundly defeated Kongsvinger in Bodø by the score of 4–0. consequently, winning 4–1 on aggregate. After the club ‘s rejoinder in 1993, Glimt played continuously in the norwegian crown class for 12 seasons, for a total of 16 top division seasons. In the 2005 season however, Bodø/Glimt was relegated. life in the Adecco league proved harder than most fans had anticipated, and many were defeated when Glimt failed to secure the third put play-off spot they had held during most of the course of the season, finally ending in fifth place. The season was tainted by fiscal difficulties, forcing the team to sell their top scorekeeper Håvard Sakariassen and captain Cato Andrè Hansen to promotion rivals Bryne in the center of the season. This had to be done to stabilize their fiscal situation, which was so poor that the Norwegian Football Association threatened to not give the team their play license for adjacent temper, which would have resulted disastrously in forced relegation to the moment division. The poor results towards the end of the season ultimately prompted the board of the supporters ’ cabaret to write an open letter in which the trail and alcohol consumption habits of certain nameless players were criticised. In a bizarre braid a few weeks former, the supporters ’ club was threatened with a lawsuit in the multi-million class by former coach Trond Sollied, who was concisely mentioned in a by-sentence of the letter as having been in charge when the bad habits of the team had begun. All claims were cursorily retracted by the supporters ’ club. In the second season in Adeccoligaen, Bodø/Glimt made their target from the first season in Adeccoligaen, a promotion back to Tippeligaen after two promotion matches – once again, as in 1976 – against Odd. Bodø/Glimt was the first gear team on nine years in Norway for winning the promotion matches to Tippeligaen. This was besides the last match and day at work in Bodø/Glimt for the norwegian legend Erik Hoftun and Kent Bergersen. In 2013, Bodø/Glimt was again promoted to Tippeligaen, after becoming the winner of Adecco-ligaen. Coach Jan Halvor Halvorsen managed to keep Glimt in the top conduct for the adjacent two seasons.

The team started the season well, and was on top of the league postpone after three games. however, Glimt lost the future six games. The place in the crown league however looked impregnable with four games remaining, but Glimt lost all of them and was relegated. Despite of the relegation, Aasmund Bjørkan stayed on as head coach, and the club brought in then unknown Kjetil Knutsen as adjunct coach.
