Recent history
Recent seasons have seen the team struggle, both on and off the pitch. Following many years in the French 3rd division during which time they were denied promotion to Ligue 2 by an administrative error at the league in the mid-2000s (for which they were awarded financial compensation), they were relegated at the end of the 2008–09 season and started season 2009–10 in the
Championnat de France Amateur. In June 2011, L'Entente was relegated again (this time to the CFA 2), after the club entered bankruptcy protection. With promotions in 2014 and 2017, the club rose again to the third tier, but suffered relegations again in 2019 and 2022.
