Degerfors IF

Degerfors IF was formed on 13 January 1907 and is a professional football club based in Degerfors, Sweden, a town with a large iron industry whose politically progressive fans have displayed banners such as "ultra rossoblaco - Against Fascism" and "no style, just working class." The club first played in the Allsvenskan in 1939 from its home ground, Stora Valla, and had a long run in the top flight until 1966, with a second and sharply contested era in the early 1940s and 1950s. Its record attendance is 21,065 spectators, set when Degerfors met IFK Norrköping in 1963.
