, in 1978-1979 the club won all the competitions it had entered - with the exception of the European Cup Winners' Cup where it was eliminated in quarter finals without losing by Fortuna Düsseldorf
, that year's finalist. Barberis then became French champion in 1982 with AS Monaco
.
Until its bankruptcy, Servette was the only club to have remained in the top league since its creation in 1890.
On 4 February 2005 the parent company of the club was declared bankrupt. It had run debts of over 10 million Swiss franc
s, having not paid the players since the previous November, and consequently the club suffered an exodus of players looking for paying clubs. As a consequence of the bankruptcy Servette Under 21s took over the club name playing two divisions below the original Servette team in 1. Liga
, a fate already experienced by regional rivals Lausanne Sports in 2003, and continue to play at the Stade de Geneve in front of smaller crowds.
In the 2005-06 season, a rejuvenated Servette secured promotion to the Challenge League, the second highest division in Switzerland.
In the 2010-11 season, Servette finished 2nd in the Challenge League, thereby qualifying for a relegation/promotion play-off against Super League team AC Bellinzona
. Servette lost the initial match in Bellinzona 1-0, but won the return match 3-1 and winning the tie 3-2 on aggregate, securing promotion to the Swiss Super League.
. It was inaugurated on March 16, 2003 after three years of construction. The opening match was played between Servette and Young Boys
. With an all-seater capacity of 30,084, the Stade de Genève is the third largest stadium in Switzerland, and hosted three group matches in the 2008 European Football Championship.
Servette moved to the Stade de Genève from their old ground, the Stade des Charmilles
, in 2003. The Charmilles was inaugurated on June 28, 1930, with the first game drawing a crowd of 14,000 on the first match of the Coupe des Nations
. The official capacity peaked at 30,000, but a record 40,000 spectators managed to squeeze in for the international game between Switzerland
and France
on October 14, 1951. Flood lights were installed in 1977 and the stands were entirely covered in 1983. The capacity gradually diminished from the 1980s onward, first to 20,000 in 1985 and then to 9,250 in 1998 when the stadium became an all-seater.
Plans for a new stadium were first launched in 1984, in response to the Charmilles becoming increasingly outdated and run down. A project committee was established in 1992, which proposed to either rebuild the stadium over the course of four years or construct a new stadium elsewhere in Geneva. Meanwhile, with more substantial plans failing to materialize, the poor state of the old stadium became apparent when the main stand, the Tribune A, was declared unsafe in 1995 and closed off. A renovation project began the following year, which saw the main stand re-opened and seats eventually being installed throughout the stadium. Servette would secure another Swiss Championship and a Cup trophy while playing at the Charmilles, before construction on the new Stade de Genève finally commenced in 2000. The last match was played on December 8, 2002 in front of a capacity crowd.
