    Charlie is now back on track and will hopefully play against Kalmar this wednesday. Midfielder Eguren is suspenced, so most likely, P. Andersson will take his place and CD will probably play on his regular position in the starting11.

    So am I mistaken or has Davies yet to score in a league match for Hammarby?

    kind of off topic, but can someone explain to me how in the world "bajen" is slang for an english mispronunciation of hammarby? i can't say the word and make it sound like "bajen" no matter how hard i try

    hammarby is (mis)pronounced hah-mahr-bye. "bajen" is pronounced bye-en. -en is a europe-wide suffix that generally "-like". eg drunken. bye-en is thus "like the byes"

    at least thats how it was explained to me by a drunken swede.

    The story about "Bajen" goes back to 1930, when Hammarby had very good ishockey team and they went to England for coupel of games. Englishmen couldent pronounce "by"(village) in Hammarby, its sounded like bye for the team so they call them self "bajare" and when they came back they use "Bajen" so after coupel of years evry section in Hammarby calld them self "Bajare" "Bajen" end of the story

    Forza Bajen! :D

    Just checking, if anyone knows - (based on my VERY limited supply of Danish ;)

    Is it correctly pronounced HAMM-ar-boo?

    TIA

    How did you find that out? I haven't seen any information or quotes about today's starting lineup.

    I'm not sure about that lineup either. I believe Hammarby will start with Paulinho alongside Petter Andersson, with CD on the bench ready to enter after 60 - 70 mins.

    Any updates? When does this game kick off or has it been played already?

    ...well now that I look it up, I guess it's over.

    Did Charlie play at all? All I can see is that he didn't score.

    Final score 1-0 and CD was involved in some action in the end. A summary can be seen later on at viasatsport.com choose Webb-TV and Hammarby - Kalmar.

    Have a nice evening!
