2004–05 FC Oțelul Galați season

In December 2004, with 2 months left on his contract, Sorin Cârţu and president Nicu Boghici agreed for a departure.[1] January 2005 came with rumors which said that Mittal Steel would take over the team, for which they already were shirt sponsors. Soon after, Viorel Anghelinei, former player of Oțelul and referee, was appointed[2] as the new president of the club. The new manager of Oțelul, Mihai Stoichiţă was announced[3] on 23 January.
