In a brief moment of clarity I once wrote that I will avoid making predictions because doing so
will eventually offer proof that I have no idea of what I'm talking about. While I was smart enough

Life in the Swedish Allsvenskan began for 2009 as Kalmar FF
embarked on the focal objective of defending their title crown, despite an initial drawback as they
stranded a one-goal advantage to draw with Gefle IF.
After accomplishing their first championship in 2008, Kalmer travelled northwards to the city of
Gävle in pursuit of their title protection and Rasmus Elm, whose brother Victor and last season's
top goalscorer Patrik Ingelsten both departed for SC Heerenveen over the winter
months, ensured the season started to almost perfection by successfully converting a penalty on 29
minutes.

Irish champions Drogheda United have set up a dream tie with 1999 semi-finalists Dynamo Kiev in the
UEFA Champions League second qualifying round. Drogheda United travelled to Estonia with the
comfort of knowing that a draw would see them progress having beaten Levadia Talinn 2-1 in the home
leg at Dalymount Park.

Kalmar FF's win versus Trelleborgs FF over the weekend keeps the club's five point lead in tact.
Next week's matchup against last year's Allsvenskan champion IFK Göteborg who currently sit in
third place will be a crucial battle.
Hopefully the Brothers Elm will step up in this key matchup.
