History

The fans started to organize in the late 70's when there was an expansion of creation of fan groups in Yugoslavia. The first fan groups were called: Ultras, Eagles, Front and Sokolanci(the most loyal fans of Kumani Zapad). In 1989 all of them united under the name Delta Force. This name didn't stay for long when on 19 February 1990 it was changed in to Kumani. The name came from the Asian nomadic tribe Cumans that lived in Kumanovo in the Middle Ages. Their main transparent is Kumani-Zapad (Macedonian Cyrillic: Кумани-Запад)
