Review and events

edit
  • In early May 2014, coach Shimon Edri signed with the club for one season.[2]
  • On 13 October 2014, the match away against Hapoel Ramat Gan was abandoned due to power failure.[3][4] The Israel Football Association initially awarded the match to Nazareth Illit, but, after a successful appeal by Ramat Gan, the decision was overturned and the match was ordered to be replayed.[5]
  • On 28 January 2015, with the team at the 15th position in the league, Coach Shimon Edri was fired and replaced by Ofer Talker.[6]
  • On 22 May 2015, in the last match of the season, the club had beaten Hapoel Rishon LeZion 2–1 to finish the season in the 14th place and avoid relegation.[7] The club's place meant it had to play a relegation/promotion play-off match against Ironi Nesher from Liga Alef.
