The team made by Ibnu Grahan was forced to play a 2-2 draw.[9] Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) crushed host PSGC Ciamis with a score of 3-0 in a triangular tournament match at Galuh Ciamis Stadium, Friday (20/3/2015). Two of Persebaya (ISL)'s goals were scored by Emile Mbamba, while another goal was scored by Rudi Widodo.[10] Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) beat Persib Bandung with a score of 1-0 in a match at the Galuh Stadium, Ciamis, West Java, on Sunday (22/3/2015), thereby winning the triangular tournament which was also attended by host PSGC Ciamis. The only goal was contributed by Emile Mbamba when the match had just entered the 2nd minute.[11] On March 23 2015, Persebaya 1927 filed a lawsuit against Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) which is currently competing in the Indonesia Super League, to the Surabaya District Court (PN Surabaya). The lawsuit was also addressed to the PSSI. The lawsuits raised are regarding legality. The Persebaya Surabaya schism polemic is still continuing.[12]

April

Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) and Arema Cronus were not included in the list of clubs recommended by BOPI to take part in ISL 2015. BOPI emphasized that the reason for excluding both of them was due to legality issues.[13] Even though he cannot take part in ISL this season due to legality issues, the CEO of Persebaya (ISL), I Gede Widiade, will not comply with BOPI's decision and is adamant about continuing to appear in the competition.[14] Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) managed to defeat Mitra Kukar with a score of 1-0 in the inaugural Qatar National Bank (QNB) match at the Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium in Surabaya, Sunday evening, 5 April 2015. The only goal was scored by Persebaya (ISL) player number 8, Slamet Nurcahyo, in the 16th minute.[15] Emile Mbamba late goal in the 94th minute saved Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) from defeat when they hosted Pusamania Borneo in the second match of the Indonesian Super League which ended with a score of 1-1 at the Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium in Surabaya, Wednesday night (8/4/2015).[16]

May

The court session regarding Persebaya schism (Persebaya 1927 vs Persebaya Surabaya (ISL)) at the Surabaya District Court (PN Surabaya), Tuesday (12/5/2015) was finally postponed by the panel of judges due to the absence of PSSI as the defendant.[17]

August

To qualify Persebaya Surabaya (ISL) for the President's Cup tournament, BOPI, Mahaka and Persebaya (ISL) management finally agreed to change the name to Persebaya United.[18]

September

Persebaya United management finally announced the new name and logo, Saturday (26/9/2015) morning at a restaurant in the South Surabaya area. The team based in Jemursari decided to use the name Bonek F.C. in the 2015 Indonesia President's Cup tournament. The name change is a follow-up to the decision letter of the Director General of Intellectual Property Rights (HKI) of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights which states that Persebaya 1927 is the holder of trademark rights to the name and logo of Persebaya Surabaya. As well as pressure from the Transition Team and the Indonesian Professional Sports Agency (BOPI).[19] Persebaya United officially changed its name to Bonek F.C. entering the 2015 Indonesia President's Cup quarter-finals.[20]

October

The Bonek F.C. team has certainly changed its name to Surabaya United to compete in the General Sudirman Cup tournament. The club owned by Gede Widiade emphasized that the name change was only intended for the General Sudirman Cup tournament. Thus, the team which is based in South Jemursari has changed its name four times. Previously they used the name Persebaya Surabaya (ISL). Then it changed to Persebaya United in the 2015 Indonesia President's Cup group stage. In the quarter-finals, they used a new name, Bonek F.C.. This name survived until they carried out a walkover (WO) against Sriwijaya F.C. in Palembang. And in the General Sudirman Cup tournament, this team decided to use the name Surabaya United.[21]
