Full 90 in a 3-2 win over Assyriska. Picked up a yellow card in the 41st minute. Ljungskile are in 5th but have no chance of reaching the promotion playoffs with only 1 game remaining.
How did they go from winning the league to 'can't make the playoffs' in only 7 days - during which time they won a game?
Edit: Oh wait - 7 days and a year... haha.
There was an article about Old on the stuff Website last week with an interview:
http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/73080927/former-all-w...
Last year he had a top season with Ljungskile, just one point from promotion. They finished third, only to lose their playoff to the third-placed first-division club.
"Expectations were high for us to go up. This year in a nutshell it's been a frustrating, mid-table average season."
A few players were poached and Old said the writing was on the wall after about 10 games despite a run of four wins. Injuries impacted and he said a small club like his with a tight, limited squad can't afford setbacks.
Old has another year to run on his Swedish contract and he is 90 percent likely to stay. He has an exit clause if he should find another club which would allow him to go on a free transfer.
