Match day in the final round of the Women’s League was met with criticism.
Supporters submitted a proposal for a new date.
It’s a good suggestion, says Nella Fischer of Linköping for Sportbladet.
The fact that the Women’s League ended on Friday stirred emotions among club fans.
The fans’ criticism was based on the fact that the Premier League plays its last round in the same week on Saturday and that they “never dared to consider putting the final round of the men’s league on a Friday”.
Fans get support from Rosengård’s Jessica Wick and Linköping’s Nella Fisher.
It is a shame that they are given priority in this way. Wik says, I totally think our match should be on Saturday.
– It’s boring, of course. We also benefit from having supporters out there. It is always fun to play in front of as many fans as possible. No matter what the match, Fisher says, you want to have as many people as possible in the last match.
“What should I say this time?”
With the current schedule, the Women’s League plays its final round on Friday, the Super League on Saturday and the Men’s League on Sunday.
Our game should have a higher priority than the Premier League, says Wake and continues:
– Why don’t we play after each other? Our game should be on Saturday and then it’s up to those who set the schedule.
Fans point out that the weekday game makes it difficult to follow their team in place. Something Fischer understood, which Linkoping ended up with against Kev Orebro.
It’s a bit difficult to take time off from work so you can go watch football.
Rosengård and Linköping meet tomorrow in an early series final. It may happen that the gold race only lasts until the end. And as both teams finish the season away from home, they can celebrate a potential gold medal without their fans.
– What do I say about her this time? Find a solution for all teams to bring in as many supporters as possible. Then I always think League One should go first, but other solutions can be found other than just playing Friday’s game, says Nella Fischer.
Suggestion from supporters
A committed Hammarby fan, Simon Sandstrom, announced on his Facebook page that the fans, after meeting with Elite Soccer Ladies, sent an offer by email to Anna Lögdberg, competition director of the Swedish Football Association.
The proposal meant that the start of a Superettan match was pushed forward by one hour on Saturday to 4:00 p.m., and that the Women’s League could play on the same day with a 1:00 p.m. start time.
– It’s a good suggestion as long as there is a chance to watch matches and play matches in both series, why not? , says Fisher.
In the All-Svenskan and Superettan women’s teams, Brommapojkarna is the only association with a team in both divisions. With the schedule now running, both the ladies, who are fighting for the decade, and the men, who are fighting for the Allsvenskan’s progress, will end up at home. The ladies also face potential gold candidate Rosengård.
