Aberdeen Football Club was a Scottish football team formed in 1881. On 14 April 1903 it merged with the two other Aberdeen clubs Victoria United and Orion to form the current Aberdeen Football Club.[2]
The club's first-ever game was a 1–4 defeat at Coupar Angus. Aberdeen played its first Scottish Cup tie against Dundee Harp in 1882. The club won its first trophy in 1888, the Aberdeenshire Cup. In 1891, Aberdeen became a founder member of the newly formed Northern League.
