Perak F.C.

In February 2016, the club rebranded as Perak The Bos Gaurus, or Perak TBG, as part of its privatisation plan to play in Malaysia Super League.[1][2][3]

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 FA Cup in 2018, its first silverware in 12 years. The team also finished second in the Super League, thus qualifying for the following season's 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 Champions League debut on 12 February 2019, making it as far as the third playoff round where it was defeated 1-5 by 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.

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, 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 company called IMC had taken over 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]

Perak FC's home ground is the Perak Stadium.

Built in 1965, the stadium is part of a larger complex located in Kampung Simee in Ipoh, Perak called the DBI Sports Complex, which hosts other sporting facilities such as the Velodrome Rakyat, the Indera Mulia Indoor Stadium, and the Sultan Azlan Shah hockey stadium.

While the stadium's official capacity is 42,500, the club only utilises 32,000 for its home matches. However, after the Perak Stadium has been renovated for 19th Sukma Games in 2018, the capacity of Perak stadium capacity has been reduced to 27,046.[20]

Perak TBG using alternative stadium which is Lumut Stadium[21] whenever Perak Stadium is not available or is under renovation.

In September 2017, the construction of a new training ground for the use of Perak teams of various levels (senior and youth) was announced.[22] Originally scheduled for completion in February 2018, the training ground dubbed the Perak Football Complex, was eventually completed in 2020.[23] Located in Chepor, the training ground consists two fields, one synthetic and one natural.

Perak has historically utilised one primary crest. 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 crest was introduced to replace the old crest as the club main crest. The club replaced the old crest with new logo and adopted the image Seladang which is more synonym with the Perak football team.[24] 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.[25] Perak reused previous crest for 2019 season for all competitions until 2020 season.

Perak The Bos Gaurus have always worn yellow with a bit of black or white colour shirts as their home kit as it is an iconic colour for the club.

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.

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.

Perak TBG's kit has been manufactured by AL Sports since 2015, which is contracted to supply the club's kit from 2015 until 2018.[1][2][3] In 2019, Perak has got sponsor by Umbro. Then in 2020, Perak got sponsor by Kelme. In 2021, the local sports kit brand, Kaki Jersi has been take place as the brand new sports kit for Perak FC.

Perak TBG's current main shirt sponsor is Visit Perak. as shirt sponsor 1 and Pangkor Pulau Bebas Cukai. as shirt sponsor 2. The club has received RM 7.8 million from sponsorship for 2016 season.[1][2][3]
