History

The club was founded in 1927 as Amateur Buhuși, playing in the district and regional leagues. Between 1930 and 1934, the team changed its name to Steaua Bistriței Buhuși, changing it again, in 1934, to Textila, a name it would carry until 1950, when the team would be called Flamura Roșie, returning to the name Textila in 1957.^[2][3]

The club was re-established in 2007 as ASO Buhuși by Toader Șteț and Adrian Păduraru, with financial support of the Buhuși City Hall and Buhuși Local Council in order to try to ensure the continuity of the football tradition in Buhuși after Textila Buhuși was dissolved, a club with tradition in Romanian football.^[4]

In 2010, ASO Buhuși dissolved its senior squad maintaining alive only the youth squads and reformed as CSO Buhuși.^[5][1]
