Adopting Farense means Portugal LigaPro results start mattering to you, a club going since 1910. Not a novelty, a habit.

The calendar you inherit
Following Portugal LigaPro means odd kick-off hours, a new commentary language and a table you will check before your own club's. Portugal becomes part of your week.
Old enough to matter
1910 is the founding date, old enough that the club has survived a war, a rebuild and at least one financial scare, young enough that the good years are still in living memory.
Something to defend
The cabinet is not empty: Segunda Divisão: 1939–40, 1982–83 and Terceira Divisão: 2011–12. Small enough to recite from memory, big enough to argue about in a pub.
Close to the pitch
Estádio de São Luís holds about 7,000. You can hear the defenders shouting at each other, which is the single best argument for lower-capacity football.

Ground: Estádio de São Luís. Go in a day early, find the pre-match pub, buy the programme.
