STRONGER TOGETHER  

Next week we will hold an education night for our players. A chance to look back on an amazing and positive season and the moment to start to consider the year and season ahead of us. We are always changing and moving forward positively on the journey that we decided to take 7 years ago.  

To the original group of players and former refugees who started this amazing journey and who are still pushing down barriers today, on and off the field, we owe you a huge debt of gratitude and a massive thanks. Your heart beat is getting louder. You have never once stopped believing.  

To our current squad players who performed heroically last year and before that, we stand by you, we will continue to support you in every way we can, and we thank you for being Cosmos and safe guarding its future. You are strong and will get stronger. To the lads who have contributed in so so many ways in lifting our profile in society and for their heroics on the field in 2023 and in the seasons before, but who are now on their own journey in life away from Cosmos -we thank you. We wish you well and we will never ever forget your contribution. You brought us to this moment. It is on your shoulder that we stand We will follow all your journeys.  

To the new players who will join us over the coming weeks in preparation for season 2024, we will try to offer you the opportunity to be heroes. The opportunity to break down barriers in society, to fight for a more equal and better world and to win division 4.  

To our loyal supporters and members , we ask that you keep believing in what we stand for off the field and that you renew your memberships. Be on the sideline at games, supporting the lads and shouting them on to victory and keep believing that we can be League champions. And, if you are not a member yet but you are reading this, please come on board. Every krona you give goes directly into the heart of Cosmos and helps to make positive change.

Finally, to our corporate sponsors, partners and business donators. For the past years you have ‘saved’ us. You have fuelled the fire of our ambition and vision. You have driven us through the leagues and have been there when we needed you. Yes, we proudly wear your logos and company insignia on our match uniforms and we praise you, all of you, large and small, on our social media pages. But, in reality, you mean much more than that both to Cosmos and to society in general. You have decided to direct some of your company profits and business income streams into Cosmos because you believe in what Cosmos stands for and represents in society. It is a brave and very positive commitment to us and society at large. You are helping make change happen. We thank you. Please keep supporting and believing. Your decisions affect so many people.

Season 2024 is just around the corner. We will try to play attractive, intelligent football, win games and win the league. Our commitment to support the many organisations which we work alongside, will continue and hopefully grow. We will never stop standing up for those who we feel need support. When we say STRONGER TOGETHER, we mean it.   And….there may be really positive news just around the corner…soon. Something truly ‘game changing’ is hopefully close to becoming a reality.   More news on that and other things, shortly.

Have a great rest of November, December and Christmas. Enjoy the amazing early snow, look after each other and see you in the   New Season.

Tonight we head into the final rehersals ahead of the big concert the 15th of September.

It will be a truly amazing evening with world class performers and artists. We will be part of a choir which will be nothing but amazing!

We are truly honored and privileged to be part of this and thankful to Länförsäkringar and RF SISU Jämtland Härjedalen for playing a huge part in this.

The ketchup effect, after a tough spell with results going against us. The past few games we have the flow again, and it is clear and visible when you see the boys perform. Shoulders down and relaxed, which results in several really well taken goals vs Alsen IF.

You have to suffer and go through tough spells in order to grow and learn, we have done that and we came out on the other side better as individuals and better as a team. This is our seventh point out of nine, the past three games - which is a testament to betterness.

In this game we also played for Abbe, our superb supporter with his drum and megaphone. He is travelling down to Tchad to do humanitarian work, superb from him and we are so happy that we could win this game for him. His support to The Mighty Cosmos is surrealistic and we are so appreciative for his presence - he will in the near future be heavily missed!

This game probably summed up the differences between the two clubs playing a game.

The "Ope day", 900 kids playing football at Sportfältet - what an amazing and lovely day. Football at it´s best. But also, Ope has a foundation which is so, so strong. A history and roots going back 100 years. Cosmos 6 years of history, no home, no facilitites to call home and players from all around the globe. Also football at it´s best, it was truly David vs Goliath.

Ope are chasing the first spot, so it was several conditions that made this game, beforehand, really tough. But we came into the game full of belief, full of positivity and full of a great team spirit. Know we can match any team in the league if everyone give 100%.

We started the game in tough manner, conceded an early goal so it was uphill from there. We kept trying and kept going and had a really positive spell with several good chances. BUT, Ope then countered on us and their player/manager scored a great finish to make it 2-0. 

A few years ago, or even a few weeks ago, that might have been game over. But we fought back, we kept playing football, we kept trying and we kept the positivity going. And we got rewarded, we scored 1-2 and kept going and finally made 2-2. After 2-2 both teams had chances to win the gam, but thanks to great goalkeeping both ends the game finished 2-2.

For us to comeback against a massive club like Ope, after 2-0 down, shows how good we are when are united as a team. Manyt many players were terrific, but a special mention to Måns - coming on and putting his heart on the sleeves. Running, pressing and made a great impact from the bench after a long awaited debut. 

We keep growing, we keep learning and we are stronger together!
