New season just under 3 months away

The new Allsvenskan season will kick off in just under 3 months time but already teams are coming back to pre-season training. 

Many of the teams face each other in pre-season games through-out Ferbuary and March and many expect their teams to do well. 

Champions Kalmar, wheather we will be calling them that this time next year remains on what they can do following the departure of both Viktor Elm and Patrik Ingelsten. But Daryle Smylie has been signed from relegated Ljungskile. 

The others will have to challenge but Elfsborg, Helsingborgs, AIK and IFK Goteborg maybe the teams that will be challenging for the title this season. 

All in all expect some more transfers and news from the teams before we get under way on April 5th right until November.

Hi Conor
Very interesting updates about the Swedish League.
Were you based in Sweden? or were you following the progress of the Walkers -
Where are the Walkers from in Ireland - and I see from your posts that the manager of Orebro left 12 months ago - and that since then 2008 was much better ?

I am editor of Europeanirish.com and lie to follow any Irish story from Continental Europe -
I'd like to invite you to post your previews, reports and summaries of Activities in the Swedish league - on EuropeanIrish.com
And lof course link the end of your articles to your Blog site here.
