Ostersunds FC's Europa League success
Have not seen a thread on this yet so I thought I would create one.
Anyone been following this swedish team's success in Europa league?! They are managed by an English manager Graham Potter they have a very small budget but have found unlikely success in Europa League. They plucked a few gems in the rough including some Englishmen from the conferences one of which (Jamie Hoppcutt) who scored an amazing winner in the first leg and they ended up knocking out mighty Galatasaray in qualifiers and got a standing ovation from their ultras! Links to first and second legs To view the link you have to Register or Login 2nd: To view the link you have to Register or Login They are now top of their group with 7 points, a group that includes Atletico Bilbao and Hertha Berlin! They beat Hertha 1-0 and Last night they drew 2-2 with Bilbao. Really an impressive story if you want to read more theres a good article here To view the link you have to Register or Login |

Beggars the question of why don't we take a look at some of their players, surely worth sending a scout to watch some of their games to maybe unearth a hidden gem?
The same applies to Eibar in Spain, a club of similar size who have more than held their own in La Liga for 5 seasons now, we Must start to exploit these markets. |

AND they only stayed up at the end of their first season as Elche were booted out of the division for financial irregularities otherwise they finished bottom 3.

So yeah, it has been a wonderful achievement even if they have not won La Liga to appease you |

Knowing our luck if that happened in England they would still relegate us and promote the play off losers instead.

Didn’t we have our best ever Premier League season without Zaha?

10th under Pardew? That was with Wilf, although he wasn’t a star man that season at all.

Well unless suddenly it's a whole new league then 3rd is still our top division best finish.
