History
Football Club Meux was founded shortly after the end of
matricule 4454 and began playing at the lowest regional level.[4] The club's first honour was a victory in the Coupe de la Province de Namur in 1966. The club played in the provincial divisions for half a century. In 1997, Meux won the title in the First Provincial Division and were promoted for the first time in their history to the Belgian Fourth Division, the fourth and lowest national level.[5]
In their first season in national football, the club which had since become Royal Football Club Meux, finished in eighth place. The next season, the club ranked second to last, a position synonymous with relegation to the provincial divisions. The following years were spent as a yo-yo club between the highest regional tier and the lowest national tier.[3]
In the 2010s, the club's results improved and after failing to win promotion two consecutive seasons in fifth place,Belgian Second Amateur Division from the 2016–17 season.[9]
