'''FC TVMK''' was an [[Estonia]]n [[Football team|football club]]. TVMK won the Estonian [[Meistriliiga]] in 2005. They are also multiple winners of the [[Estonian Cup]].
==History==
Founded in 1951, TVMK played in regional leagues until 1986, when the club eneterd the "Jõgeva III division", winning promotion to the [[II liiga]] the same year. In 1988 TVMK reached the top flight of [[Estonian SSR Championship|1988 Estonian SSR Football Championship]], that was not directly affiliated with [[Soviet Union football league system]] where Estonia was represented by [[SK Tallinna Sport]] and [[JK Tallinna Kalev]].

TVMK won two of the final seasons of the Estonian SSR Football Championship in [[1990 Estonian SSR Football Championship|1990]] and [[1991 Estonian SSR Football Championship|1991]] subsequently becoming one of the founding members of Estonian Meistriliiga as TVMV when the independent championship was first held in [[1992 Meistriliiga|1992]], following the [[Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic#Soviet occupation of Estonia|Soviet occupation]].
Financial difficulties at TVMV parent company - the TVMV plywood-producing factory (known as TVMK for most of its history) put the club's existence at risk following the 1992 season. The club was saved by sponsorship investments from the transport company Nikol AS.<ref>{{cite web |title="Nikol" Lahtis  Kolmas |url=https://dea.digar.ee/?a=d&d=spordileht19930212.2.18&srpos=1&e=-------et-25--1--txt-txIN%7ctxTI%7ctxAU%7ctxTA------------- |access-date=2024-06-11 |website=dea.digar.ee}}</ref>
Due to sponsorship reasons, TVMK played both the [[1992-93 Meistroliiga|1992-93]] and [[1993-94 Meitriliiga|1993-94]] seasons under the name of FC Nikol, securing Meistriliiga bronze medals on both occasions.
One game before the end of the [[1993-94 Meistriliiga|1993-94]] season, newly-formed [[FC Tevalte]] was disqualified from Meistriliiga on match fixing allegations.<ref>{{cite web |title=Jalgpalliliidu vägikaikavedu Tevaltega lõppenud |url=https://dea.digar.ee/?a=d&d=sonumilehtsl19961108.2.20.6&srpos=29&e=-------et-25--1--txt-txIN%7ctxTI%7ctxAU%7ctxTA------------- |access-date=2024-06-11 |website=dea.digar.ee}}</ref> Tevalte owner, Sergei Belov, filed a complaint against disqualification, but ultimately established a new club based on FC Nikol. The new club was named [[FC Lantana|FC Lantana-Marlekor]], where Marlekor was referring to the company that privatised the TVMK factory, a business with which FC TVMK was affiliated.
Despite using FC Nikol's Meistriliiga license and referencing TVMK owners Marlekor AS in their name, Lantana-Marlekor was mostly formed out of former FC Tevalte players and was coached by Sergei Belov's father, who had also coached FC Tevalte the season earlier. Most of the TVMK/Nikol players, including player-coach Vjatseslav Smirnov, left the club during this transition.<ref>{{cite web |title=Jalgpalliklubi "Lantana" ei lubanud ETV-l teha mängust ülekannet |url=https://dea.digar.ee/cgi-bin/dea?a=d&d=postrahvatoelinehaal19950728.1.1&e=-------et-25--1--txt-txIN%7ctxTI%7ctxAU%7ctxTA------------- |access-date=2024-06-11 |website=dea.digar.ee}}</ref>
In the subsequent season, following Belov's successful appeal to FIFA, the [[Estonian Football Association]] (EJL) reinstated FC Tevalte back to Meistriliiga. Since Sergei Belov was already operating his club under a new license and name, the slot regained by FC Tevalte was passed to AS Marlekor, effectively returning FC TVMK's successors to Meistriliiga. Marlekor used Tevalte's Meistriliiga license, and the team played the [[1995-96 Meistriliiga]] season as Tevalte-Marlekor. Meanwhile, [[FC Lantana|Lantana]] dropped the reference to Marlekor from their name. The return of TVMK's successors to Meistriliiga saw many former TVMK/Nikol players, including player-coach Vjatseslav Smirnov, rejoin the team.<ref>{{cite web |title=Jalgpalliklubi "Lantana" ei lubanud ETV-l teha mängust ülekannet |url=https://dea.digar.ee/cgi-bin/dea?a=d&d=postrahvatoelinehaal19950728.1.1&e=-------et-25--1--txt-txIN%7ctxTI%7ctxAU%7ctxTA------------- |access-date=2024-06-11 |website=dea.digar.ee}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Lantana käristas vahet |url=https://dea.digar.ee/?a=d&d=eestipaevaleht19960506.2.15.19&e=-------et-25--1--txt-txIN%7ctxTI%7ctxAU%7ctxTA------------- |access-date=2024-06-11 |website=dea.digar.ee}}</ref>
Tevalte-Marlekor finished the 1995–96 season in third place, level on point with [[FC Flora]] and six point behind [[FC Lantana]]. The following season Tevalte was dropped from the club's name and the team continued under the name of Marlekor.
Ahead of the [[1997-98 Meistriliiga|1997-98 season]], the club regained its historic name, FC TVMK. TVMK achieved limited success between 1997 and 1999, finishing either fifth or sixth in Meistriliiga. It was not until [[2000 Meistriliiga|2000]] that TVMK secured Meistriliiga bronze medals. Subsequently, TVMK consistently won either silver or bronze during the five Meistriliiga seasons between 2000 and 2004, culminating in their first and last Meistriliiga championship in [[2005 Meistriliiga|2005]].
===After the title===
{{update section|date=June 2020}}
After winning the title TVMK lost several key players to other clubs in the pre-season. Club top scorers [[Ingemar Teever]] and [[Tarmo Neemelo]] left to [[Allsvenskan|Sweden]] (although the latter would later return on loan, after a troubled start abroad), [[Maksim Smirnov]] and Deniss Malov left for rivals [[FC Levadia]], [[Egidijus Juška]] returned to Lithuania. [[Vyacheslav Bulavin]] continued as the head coach, but was sacked in mid-season, with the former Russia international [[Sergei Yuran]] taking over. The fortunes didn't change much though, and the highlights of the season were winning the [[Estonian Cup]] and [[Estonian Super Cup]], as the club finished only fourth in the league. The following season Yuran left for [[Shinnik Yaroslavl]]. [[Vjatšeslav Smirnov]] took over and led the team to a third-place finish in the league. After the [[2007 Meistriliiga|2007 season]] [[Pjotr Sedin]], the chairman, announced that the club is currently considering a possibility of giving up their professional status, because of financial difficulties.
FC TVMK licence was revoked following the 2007 season.
