Woutie! As much as I think he's a bad fit for Ajax, he does score them goals.

Haha, yeah he was almost unplayable in this game. 3-0 down before half time. Awful.

Explain to me why the E in SønderjyskE is written in capitals? I'm Dutch, so I am comfortable with the sounds in Scandinavia and I'm aware of letters R and D being nearly mute in the middle of Danish words, but how do I approach capital E?

Haha, good question. I was puzzled about this too, when the club was formed and chose the peculiar capital E in the end. But now I suppose they've been around long enough for me to write it this way withoit even thinking about it.
The full name of the club is Sønderjysk Elitesport, and they also compete in ice hockey, handball etc. So the E must be in capital, since it's the first letter in the second part of the club name. It is just pronounced as an "e" usually sounds in Danish, and the full club name, Sønderjysk Elitesport, is rarely (or never) spoken in full.

First Celtic, now Fiorentina - would be quite the achievement for BIF if they undo themselves from the violet team

Yes, absolutely. That would be a milestone for this club, especially after their European shortcomings through so many years. It's a bit peculiar that I keep getting the same opponents that I've already played in the League Phase. First Celtic, then Fiorentina. If I manage to get past the Italian side, it would be nice with a new opponent for a change.

You're in the lead again, well done. Now get that defence in order because in the championship round, goal difference counts.

That's true. Really don't know what happened there. Seemed in control, 3-0 up, 4-1 up. The goal to 3-1 was just lack of concentration from my part, but the two others, it was almost like the game wanted a comeback for the hosts there...

Good News Train keeps rolling, fantastic result against Viola! Are you slowly thinking about a possible treble?...
Having said that, in Danish club football history, Brøndby is the only to have reached a European semi-final - can they repeat at least that fantastic feat?

Yes indeed. Things are almost going too well at the moment. You know my preference for a slow build, usually taking a few more seasons to rise to the top. A treble may still be a strech too far though 😉

Wow, Kasper Dolberg at Silkeborg - where do they get the money from?
Pobody's Nerfect: Brøndby start on the backfoot in Het Slotspel (Dutch for End Round), but your main title rival did as well so no damage done. You still have quite a gap to København and Nordsjælland.

Slotspel in Dutch, Slutspil in Danish. Quite similar, eh?
Yes, Kasper Dolberg at Silkeborg. It was mentioned in one of my opening posts in this save. Before the start I moved several top players (by Danish standards) back to their childhood clubs. Kasper Dolberg and Robert Skov returned to Silkeborg, Jonas Wind to København, Joakim Mæhle to Aalborg, Alexander Bah SønderjyskE, Mikkel Damsgaard and Mathias Jensen Nordsjælland. And a few more as well.
Just my idea of making the league a bit harder and more competitive, also giving the thread title "homecoming" a double meaning. Thomas Frank 'coming home', but also quite a few players doing so.
