The other club, Unirea, was founded in 1924, by merging of Orizontul and "Zburătorii", in the same district of Obor.
In 1947-1948, due to Communist regime norms (stating that all sport associations had to join a form of trade-union, or a governmental institution), the team is taken over by Ministry of Internal Affairs and, in May 14 1948, merged with another club, Ciocanul (former Maccabi), the new teams being named Dinamo "A" and Dinamo "B".
In season 1947-1948, they played as Dinamo "A" (Ciocanul) and Dinamo "B" (Unirea Tricolor), and next season, in Divizia A remained only one, Dinamo "A" (later Dinamo București), Dinamo "B" (Unirea Tricolor) being relegated in Divizia B.
In season 1950 Dinamo "B" (Unirea Tricolor) moved to Brașov as Dinamo Brașov, in 1957-1958 it moved to Cluj-Napoca and in 1958-1959 it definitely transferred to Bacău. |
