The announcement came during a press conference on Monday.

- If we had not passed the qualification, we would have filed for bankruptcy today, says acting chairman Tom Pripp according to ÖP.

Furthermore, the newspaper writes that on November 21, Pripp will stand before the Swedish Football Association's licensing committee and argue that elite football can be run in the association.

If ÖFK goes bankrupt and is not granted an elite license, Sandviken will take the place in the super league, writes Arbetarbladet.

Sandviken lost against Örgryte in this weekend's qualifier for the super league.

Östersund secured the contract in the super one after 2–0 at home against Falkenberg in the second qualifying meeting.
