To quote someone from another forum:
QUOTE
SV Austria Salzburg were a relatively successful side competing in the Austrian Bundesliga and had reasonable success in Europe, finishing as runners-up to Inter Milan in the 1994 UEFA Cup final. However the rich history of the club was ripped from the supporters in 2005 when the club was acquired by Red Bull.
The club's violet and white colors were removed instantaneously and replaced with Red Bull's corporate branded red and white colors.
The new owners successfully applied for a name change. SV Austria Salzburg were no more and from 2005 onwards have been known as Red Bull Salzburg. In response to criticism from the supporters, the new owners responded with a complete lack of respect for the clubs loyal followers and released the following statement.
“This is a new club with no history.”
Years of history and tradition instantly destroyed. If that wasn’t bad enough the entire management team were removed and replaced with new staff at the wish of the Red Bull corporation.
