Perak Football Club or KBS Perak is a professional football club based in Ipoh. Founded in 1921, the club's home ground since then has been Perak Stadium in Ipoh, Perak. The club represents the state of Perak in Malaysian football competitions. The team is currently playing in the first-tier of Malaysian football, the Malaysia Super League, having been promoted from the Malaysia Premier League after the M-League had been revamped.

The club is often simply referred to as Perak. As with most state football clubs in Malaysia, the state football association has traditionally managed the club. However, in 2016, steps were undertaken to differentiate the association from the club. Between 2016 and 2020, the Perak football team was branded Perak The Bos Gaurus (Perak TBG) F.C..^{[1] [2] [3]} From 2021 onwards, the club will simply be referred to as Perak F.C.. The acquisition of the club by IMC in 2021 further crystallised the difference between the football association and club.

The club's traditional nickname is Seladang which is Malay for the Gaur which is the club's official mascot. However, in recent times, the team has been referred to by the nickname Bos Gaurus.^{[4] [5]}

Perak has won 2 Malaysia Super League titles, 2 Malaysia FA Cup, 8 Malaysia Cup and 3 Malaysian Charity Shield.

History

Perak has been represented by a team in Malaya Cup since its inaugural season in 1921.^[6] They were also one of the founding members of the Malayan Football Association (the predecessor to the modern Football Association of Malaysia) in 1926.^[7] However, the team was not officially registered until 18 April 1951, when the newly formed governing body of Perak football, the Perak Amateur Football Association (PAFA), took over its management.^{[8] [9]}

Perak is the third most successful club in Malaysia Cup history, having won the competition a total of 8 times, with the last of those coming in 2018. It also won the inaugural FA Cup in 1990, a feat it repeated in 2004.

Since Malaysian football league competition was introduced in 1982, the team has emerged league winners twice (in 2002 and 2003) and was the last state team to have never been demoted to a lower division. However, in 2021, Perak had suffered their first relegation from the Malaysian top flight football and will be playing in the Premier League for the first time since 1989. Perak has yet to win the Super League since its foundation in 2004, with its best showing coming in the 2006–07 and 2018 seasons where they finished runners-up.

It made its continental competition debut as a professional team at the 2008 AFC Cup, making it to the Quarter-Final stage before being eliminated by Safa.

Stability and Malaysia Cup success (2016–2020)

In February 2016, the club rebranded as Perak The Bos Gaurus, or Perak TBG, as part of its privatisation plan to play in 2016 Malaysia Super League.

Perak subsequently acquired its club license in 2017, in accordance with FMLLP's (currently known as Malaysia Football League) (MFL) requirement for all M-League clubs to acquire their licenses by the start of the 2018 season.^[10]

The team won the Malaysia Cup in 2018, its first silverware in 12 years. The team also finished second in the 2018 Malaysia Super League season thus qualifying for the following season's 2019 AFC Champions League qualifying round. In order to be eligible for participation, Perak successfully acquired an AFC Club License in 2019.^[11] Perak TBG made its AFC Champions League debut on 12 February 2019 in the preliminary round 2 against Hong Kong club, Kitchee which the game ended at 1–1 after extra time which saw the game moved on to penalties shoot out. Goalkeeper, Hafizul Hakim manage to save two penalties and Kenny Pallraj to scored the winning penalty to send Perak TBG to the third playoff round where it was defeated 1–5 by Korean club, Ulsan Hyundai.^[12]

In 2020, the team was successfully privatised as Perak FC to meet the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) requirement for state football associations (FA) to be separated from their clubs.

Financial struggles and relegation (2021–2022)

Due to change of government administration and lack of funding from the state .After the abrupt departure of head coach Mehmet Durakovic prior to the start of the 2021 season, it was revealed the team was suffering from serious financial difficulties from RM35mill budget to RM5 mill, with players having gone unpaid for months.^{[13] [14]} By May, the players were said to be refusing to train as a result of unpaid wages.^[15]

As a result of poor performances caused by the off-pitch turmoil, Perak's slid towards its first-ever relegation to the Premier League, which was finally confirmed in September.^[16]

In November 2021, it was announced that a private broker company called IMC becoming the caretaker of the Perak FC .^[17]

In January 2022, Yusri Che Lah, a former Perak player, was appointed the team's fourth head coach in less than a year.^[18]

XOX takeover

In August 2022, XOX Bhd completes its 100% stake take over of the club through its subsidiary, XOX Pro Sport Sdn Bhd.^[19]

Rivalries

Perak has a historical derby with Selangor known as the Malayan El Clasico and their rivalry dated back as early as the establishment of the Malaya Cup (now Malaysia Cup) in the 1920s.

Perak also had its main rivalry with its northern region's counterpart, known as the Northern Region Derby. Perak's main rivals are Kedah Darul Aman and Penang. Although Perak's main rivals mostly are from the northern region of Malaysia, especially Kedah, but there is also a strong supporter of friendship with Kedah and there are good relations with the fans of Penang and Perlis. "This is Utara” or in English “This is the northern region", is a slogan which shows their good friendships.

Coat of Arms and colours

Coat of Arms of Perak FA (1921–2015)

Perak has historically utilised one primary coat of arms (CoA). The first, adopted when the club was founded, was the image of a Malayan Tiger, where it is famous in Malaya and remained for more than half-century. In 2015, in effort to modernise the club, a new coat of arms was introduced to replace the old arms as the club main coat of arms. The club replaced the old coat of arms with new logo and adopted the image Seladang which is more synonym with the Perak football team.^[29] After being criticized for the lack of quality for the logo, Perak The Bos Gaurus launched a new version of the logo chosen from the logo competition held by the team for 2016 season onwards.^[30] Perak reused previous coat of arms for 2019 season for all competitions until 2020 season.

Perak The Bos Gaurus's away colours are usually white and black or various combination colours of white, yellow and black as it represent the colour of Perak's Flag.

Emblem and Monogram of Perak FC (2021–present)

After we choose a brand new Perak FC which create by one of Perak FC fans name Hafiz Ismail after winning Perak FC logo creation competition, he chose to 'redesign' using a round logo due to several factors such as the round shape looks more stable in small or large size.

Besides that, the visibility rate is high if the logo is small, especially for social media. The details will not be easily lost, especially for prints on jerseys and so on and easy to 'invert' and 'outline'.

As for the concept of monogram of PFC which is represented from Perak Football Club with a design like a Gaur head. No team in the Malaysian League competition using this concept of monogram. Therefore, Perak FC became the first to use such a concept and on average used animal symbols or icons.
