Kalmar's title charge this season has been possible thanks to a lot of players who played consistently over the 2008 season.
Viktor Elm, Patrik Ingelsten, Petter Wastå and Cesar Santin all helped Kalmar reach this stage where they are on the verge of being crowned champions of Sweden.
When Kalmar announced earlier in the year that key player Cesar Santin was leaving the club for FC Kobenhavn in Denmark many predicted a failed title attempt.
But the team kept going despite defeats along the way. But Kalmar will be hoping for the title as a fare-well present to Viktor Elm.
Kalmar did launch a title bid in 2007 but were undone by IFK Göteborg and ultimately failed to win the Allsvenskan. This season Kalmar have forgotten about 2007 and have sailed towards finally lifting the Allsvenskan trophy. Despite the pressure of Elfsborg for most of the season Kalmar have kept a 3 point lead over them for much of the season and if there is an award for deserving the title it has to be Kalmar, who have lead the Allsvenskan for much of the season.
