In 1920, Daring CB found its new home ground in Molenbeek on West suburb of Greater Brussels. At the time the stadion received the name of "Oscar Bosschaert" (later "Charles Malis"). On same year, the club has been recognized as a "Royal Society" and became the Daring CB SR (Société Royale). It had to wait until 1936 to come back at the top and win its fourth championship, and the fifth came a year later. In 1938, it finished 2nd. The next season saw a poor performance by Daring to finish 13th (forelast). The club was relegated just before the competition was stopped because of World War II. The team changed its name to Royal Daring Club de Bruxelles in 1950 (R. Daring CB). Twenty years later, the name was finally changed back to Royal Daring Club Molenbeek before the club stopped its activies, due to different difficulties, mainly financial. Due the choice of former R. Daring CM, matriculation n°47 Royal Racing White decided to move from Woluwe (in South-East of Brusssels suburb to Molenbeek and to become R.W.D. Molenbeek in 1973. There was neither merging, neither absorption. The club with number 47 simply added the name "Daring" to its name, with hope to draft back the fans of former matriculation n°2. This one was simply erased en 1973. The so called R.W.D.M was a Royal Society but never adds this mention in its name .
