Note: FC Eeklo - formed as a merger of two teams not affiliated to the Belgian Football Association, Ledeganckvrienden and Daring Eecloo - were called Ledeganckzonen Eecloo at the time of the club's foundation in November 1920, later changed their name to FC Eecloo (year unknown) and yet later again to FC Eeklo (year unknown). In 1951, the club acquired the royal epithet, becoming KFC Eeklo. In 2012, following severe financial difficulties, the club made a new start under a new name, FC Eeklo Meetjesland, usually abbreviated to simply FCE Meetjesland, yet retaining their matricule 231. In 2024, the club reverted to the old name KFC Eeklo.

Belgium, province: Namur = Namen
27 IV 2012 / RUS Loyers - R Arquet FC 1-1 / Namur, Provincial Cup semi, second leg
Note 1: US Loyers, founded in 1949, settled down at this ground at Comognes de Loyers in 1973; it was named Stade Nicolas in honour of Mr Nicolas Sparmont, who financed the stabilisation of the pitch when the club acceded to Provincial League 1 for the first time in their history. In December 2016, the ground's B pitch had been turned into a 3G with an new clubhouse. From January 2017 onwards, RUS Loyers first team have played their home matches on this former B pitch.
Note 2: for the match I attended at this ground, a semi-final in Namur's Provincial Cup, local television provided a live broadcast with two commentators (cp. photo 8), no fewer than three camera operators and even half-time interviews, in this case with a set of twins (unfortunately I do not know their names), one playing for Loyers, the other for Arquet (cp. photo 9).
