We shall now take a look at how the September and October 2018 went, sorry for the long time between updates but I can only update at weekends now due to my job.
September began with a match at home to Kalmar FF which resulted in a 1-1 draw, this was followed by a disappointing 2-2 draw with Eskilstuna City whom I felt we could have and should have easily beaten but this result did relegate Eskilstuna City.
We then hosted Karlslund in a must win game to keep our chances of winning Superettan alive, we only just managed this with a 1-0 victory thanks to a goal from Gabriel Somi which also kept us in the top 3, slight disappointment followed once again as we drew 0-0 with Tegs SK.
September ended with a pleasing 3-0 victory over GIF Sundsvall with the goals being scored by Ville Kolehmainen, Robert Widmark and our loan signing from Helsingborgs IF Samuel Gustafson.
I was very pleased and confident heading into our only 2 games of October at home to Degerfors and away to Landskrona BoIS, the Degerfors game was a match I felt we had to win as I always prefer being in an automatic promotion spot than a playoff spot. We comfortably beat Degerfors 2-0 thanks to goals from Johannes Lagesson and Robert Widmsrk.
Unfortunately we would go on to lose the last match of October against Landskrona BoIS by two goals to one, this was also my 200th match in charge of Torns IF and our only goal was scored by Pontus Overgaard meaning we finished 3rd and would have to play Allsvenskan side Orebro SK in a play off.
I leave you with a song until I update again next week.
