It's less than three weeks to go until the last premier toronto maple leafs league away game, Monday, Oct. 27 against Helsingborgs IF in Olympia. Angels offer a very affordable trip for only 110 bucks for the 110 first entered - do not miss it! To bring up the talking further, we will pay attention to a couple of classic Helsingborg Travel through the years. One of the most talked about visits to the "modern era" occurred in the summer of 1993 when HIF had just come back to the Premier League.
A few weeks later it was time to travel to Helsingborg, which was a cocky Premier Division newcomers with Henrik Larsson and Masse Magnusson on top. Inspired by the English Football Specials supporters club had decided to pick up an old tradition from the extra trains heyday; the first large blue and white train journey in modern times to be arranged. "I guess it was these intercity trains in England who got the supporter club to make the investment," said Jaren. "Dajla was old SJ-old man and knew lots of people there. There were big headlines the day after, but I did not think it was so messy. "It was not either. But at this time there was another nervousness of the police force, who do not always know what actually awaited them. At the hub of Helsingborg became a hundred riot police and stomped on the platform, they were tagged to the teeth; and when the train arrived so poured it out five hundred blue and white that just was happy. Nor remaining two hundred people in Gothenburg who took down otherwise was particularly pesky. Perhaps it was so that the police planned their actions by what was in the newspapers. After the "Civil War in Halmstad" was the blue and white fans big game in the press, and the Central Station in Gothenburg had newspapers, radio and TV were on hand to document the "messy departure." In a letter to the editor wrote Michael "Markaryd" Johansson about how "the police destroyed the party": "To all HIF: ers. Were you attacked by riot police in Gothenburg? Or arrested when you wanted toronto maple leafs to buy cigarettes? Or refused to buy the sausage in the break? Or hopfösta in a cage with room for 400 (we were 680)? Were you at all unkindly treated like we were when we visited your city? 'Club Director Thomas Wernerson who went on the train did not understand anything. "The nicest train ride I have ever experienced," he said. "This was my first away game," said Henrik "Bamse" Andersson. "I was 13, so I went with my dad and it was of course very much writings about the brawl in the newspapers. When dad came home and saw all the scandal headlines sued it's not at all how he had felt that it was in place, so that was very good for then I had to start going by myself. Every time the newspapers wrote something I could refer to what it had been in Helsingborg and how the media had exaggerated the situation then when he was with. "
The book also provides the signature "Chester Perry", a profile of HIF-circuits since the late 80s, his view of the relationship with IFK Gothenburg and then chooses to remember back on including this very first game in the 90s between the clubs :
"30 June 1993. 17 275 spectators are packed like sardines in the summer heat on a little too small Olympia. People pinches himself two in depth at each step of standing the stands to see the audience the team's number one meet most champions. We were back in the Championship, toronto maple leafs and in the 90s was IFK Gothenburg toronto maple leafs - not a pedophile lovers - the club that we loved to hate. Well, not just us. All hated IFK, simply because you were too good. We lost 2-1 after Erling Mark encountered in the avgörade goal from close range. IFK steamed on towards another championship and the hub hit we merged with a part of the IFK-supporters who had taken the train. Which, in all honesty end we received more punishment than we gave out. IFK was more, older and had been with for years, both in the Champions League and in Europe. We were newcomers - a bunch of green SMALL FRY. "
"14:10 left a packed train central Gothenburg. After the "Civil War in Halmstad," three weeks earlier, we were a sensation in the media and how sick it sounds, both newspapers, radio and television currently on the platform. The atmosphere rose rapidly and the seven policemen and Thomas Wernersson could smile and relaxed among "the dreaded blue-white thugs." When we arrived in Helsingborg problems started. The police decided to send us into two groups and the half which was left at the station became increasingly impatient. Once at Olympia, it was time for the big gala show. Scores
