From Cisco Calcio to Cisco Lodigiani
In 2003-04 Serie C2 it was bought by the family Tulli of Cisco, already owners of Cisco Calcio in Serie D (formerly called Cisco Tor Sapienza and Cisco Collatino) which becomes Lupa Frascati, the next season.
In 2004-05 Serie C2 Lodigiani was so renamed A.S. Cisco Lodigiani.
The team's colors were red and white.
Cisco Roma
In the season 2005-06 it was renamed A.S. Cisco Calcio Roma (referred to as simply Cisco Roma).
Cisco Roma played from 2005-06 to 2009-10 in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione (formerly called Serie C2), although it started the 2006-07 Serie C2 season with great ambitions of promotion, after signing former West Ham and Lazio star Paolo Di Canio: it finished 2nd in Serie C2/C, but lost to Reggiana in the promotion playoffs semifinals.
On 11 June 2009 it was bought by Mario and Davide Ciaccia which immediately relaunch the team that in fact at the end of the 2009-10 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione season, was promoted to Prima Divisione as play-off winners.
Atletico Roma
On 7 July 2010, the club changed its name to Atletico Roma F.C. and its colors to blue and white, to distance itself from Lodigiani's history and abandon a corporate name, as both Lodigiani and Cisco are firms based in Rome.
On July 18, 2011 it is not admitted by the Federal Council in Lega Pro Prima Divisione and excluded from professional football.
