Football: CSKA 1948 aim for new heights after rapid rise

SOFIA: CSKA 1948, founded four years ago after a dispute at Bulgaria's most successful club CSKA Sofia, will know they have hit the big time in their maiden Bulgarian top-flight game next month.

But some fans of the original club disagreed with the move and decided to start a new team using the year CSKA Sofia were founded in the name to acknowledge the links to the past. Whether the 48s can establish themselves amongst the top clubs is a different matter as an argument can be made that their rise was too quick. But they are aiming high.

"But why not fighting for the places that will give us a chance to play in the European tournaments?""CSKA is a symbol of victory in Bulgaria and we must liken ourselves to it," Gionov said."And our idea is to also have a 'clean' club without debts."
