Swedish championship: All hail the conquering heroes
No one is disputing that Umeå is worthy winners. They can field a formidable eleven and still have world class players on the bench. Hanna Ljungberg's long injury absence the first months of the season was hardly noticeable. The depth of the squad has also been mentioned as the key factor in their success. But more important than the great players is the club itself. The club has over their 20 year history managed to build a financial strength, organization and training environment that is challenged by very few, if any, women's football clubs in the world. If they hadn't managed that, most of their players wouldn't be at the club. Umeå's finnish standout Anne Mäkinen simply claimed that it is the best club in the world: "Given the opportunity, everyone should take the chance to play here".
The Swedish championship should be won wearing long underwear and wollen caps, not shorts and sleeveless shirts. Umeå's record early championship victory with four rounds of matches left, makes the remaining month of Damallsvenskan matches less exciting and the big question is if Umeå's superiority has killed the league. Umeå's captain Malin Moström can't see her team's lossless streak as a problem: "We always try to win, we want to win every match." Outside watchers like national team coach Thomas Dennerby chose to point out that Umeå is less superior to their opposition this year. The 5, 6 or 7 goal victories have been sparse this year while the single goal wins have been much more common. Umeå will probably score about 20 goals less than last season, and it's not for lack of shooting power. The other teams are closing up, is Dennerby's interpretation.
Still, Umeå's championship victory gives new fuel to the debate on the league format. Umeå's suggestion to divide the league in half after the first 11 matches, letting the 6 top teams play each other home and away for the championship title and the 6 bottom teams do the same to avoid relegation, has found some support. Malmö's and Bälinge's coaches likes the idea of more matches between the best teams. Other club's, among them Mallbacken and Jitex, points out that the home games against the big teams is what draws attention to their teams. They are also worried about creating a more or less permanent divide in Damallsvenskan, where the lower half teams and players won't get the development that playing really good teams provide.
Swedish FA's Börje Sandgren simply states that if anyone wanted a change and not just talk about it, they should have put forward a proposition to the FA no later than September 1. Nobody has, so there will be no change in the league format for the 2007 season.

This proposal sounds strange to me-- why not simply reduce the size of the top league from 12 teams to 8 or something?
