In Liga III, strengthened with some experienced players such as Marius Axinciuc, Norbert Niță and Constantin Borza or youngsters such as Vlad Achim, Cornel Ciobanu and M. Bejan, the team from Ovidiu has a very good start of the season being in the 2nd place after nine rounds, but Iovănescu leaves the club for the second team of Farul Constanța and the team was led until the end of the first part of the season by Axinciuc as a player-coach. From January 2007, Gheorghe Ciurea took over as manager for the rest of the campaign and led the team to finish the 2006–07 season on 11th place.{{cite web|url=https://www.telegrafonline.ro/sevastian-iovanescu-a-debutat-cu-dreptul|title=Sevastian Iovănescu a debutat cu dreptul|trans-title=Sevastian Iovănescu made his debut with the right|accessdate=19 October 2023|publisher=telegrafonline.ro|date=10 October 2006|archive-date=19 October 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231019203925/https://www.telegrafonline.ro/sevastian-iovanescu-a-debutat-cu-dreptul|url-status=live}}{{in lang|ro}}{{cite web|url=https://www.telegrafonline.ro/cso-ovidiu-abordeaza-returul-cu-gica-ciurea-director-tehnic|title=CSO Ovidiu abordează returul cu Gică Ciurea|trans-title=CSO Ovidiu approaches the return with Gică Ciurea|accessdate=19 October 2023|publisher=telegrafonline.ro|date=28 February 2007|archive-date=19 October 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231019212708/https://www.telegrafonline.ro/cso-ovidiu-abordeaza-returul-cu-gica-ciurea-director-tehnic|url-status=live}}{{in lang|ro}}
