Orebro SK is receiving unique support ahead of their home match against Ljungskile. The band Millencolin is releasing a limited vinyl single, with all profits from 200 white copies going directly to the club.
The single features the songs 'Örebro' and 'E20 Norr' and is limited to 500 copies. It is the white vinyl editions that will generate the contribution to ÖSK. The song 'Örebro' will also be released digitally.
Erik Ohlsson and Mathias Färm from Millencolin will sign copies at Kafé National on Sunday. The initiative is a collaboration with the supporter group Gamla Fina Örebro. "Millencolin and Örebro belong together," say Ohlsson and Färm.
Buyers of the single have a chance to win one of five spots to attend the band's closed-door rehearsal for an upcoming Australian tour. The rehearsal will take place at Kulturkvarteret in November. A limited t-shirt is also being released.
The club itself has echoed the sentiment. ÖSK Fotboll reported: "Passion regardless of division. The city in our hearts, of joy and sorrow."
The support comes at a key time for the team. Orebro SK sit 14th in the Superettan with 24 points from 25 games. Their next fixture is against 12th-placed Ljungskile SK at home on Sunday. The last meeting between the sides ended in a 3-2 away defeat for ÖSK. Fans can check the team's standings and upcoming fixtures on our pages.
