1970

Inner schismes and very little flattering buying of players followed during a number of years. Yes, it went so bad that HIF fell down into division 3 1972 and 1973. In the middle of the seventies Kalle Stridh was recruited, who was to become a leading goalscorer several seasons ahead. 1976 the ball talent Roger Magnusson was brought home to Sweden from Olympique Marseille, but he never made any success at Olympia.

A 25-year old Englishman was also recruited from Preston North End. His name: Stuart Baxter, now a well-known trainer in AIK at the end of the nineties.
