Bump

I'm going to England this Friday, considering how close everything is I might even come and watch the derby between Syrianska and Assyriska and while there I was hoping you guys had a home game that weekend but instead it's a away game against Orebro.
Just my luck I would have loved to go to a home game.

Elfsborg vs Hammarby, bortamatch, hur tror du det kommer att gå?

Bad luck about the result. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the game as I couldn't find a stream.

Hammarby vs Elfsborg in Borås in the Svenska Cupen on Sunday!!!!

If I can get a decent stream, I shall watch with interest.

At this stage Elfsborg are the team I'm "barracking" for in Swedish football.

Any predictions?

I want some pyro from you mate.

Match day.
We need a win to advance from the group stage of the cup.

I'm predicting violence on the field, in the stands and on the streets.

Derby day. :)

History of violence
The black-and-gold clad fans of AIK have a reputation for bad behavior. AIK fans stormed the field last year during a derby match with Djurgården, forcing a 15-minute stop in the game. The Union of European Football Associations fined the club $21,000 last April for fan behavior during a UEFA Champions League match against Rosenborg. In September, UEFA hit AIK with an $82,000 fine after fans attacked the bus carrying players from Bulgarian side Levski Sofia following a scoreless draw in a Europa League match.
AIK officials blame ultra-right-wing gangs that hide among legitimate fans for many of the problems. A secretive group that calls itself The Firm promised violence during the Syrianska match in posts on an AIK Internet discussion board. The group often uses racially charged language in its posts. Södertälje has a large Muslim population while Syrianska is a traditional club of Arab Christians living in Sweden.
The brazen attack reverberated throughout the Allsvenskan as the SvFF moved toward adopting a “no tolerance” rule on fan violence. The federation has yet to work out the details, but a post on the SvFF website hinted that teams with a history of fan violence or that proved unable to control its fans could potentially play its matches in empty stadiums. Such a move would be an economic death sentence for any club.
At the same time, AIK faces the potential loss of six points for the attack on Wärnmark. If the Svff deducts the points, it would drop AIK from seventh to 13th place in the standings and reduce the club’s eight points to two. It could be very difficult for AIK to remain in the Allsvenskan with a points deduction and it would be the latest blow to a club which has endured tumult on and off the field the past four years.
