Helsingborgs IF had a successful season with the return of Henrik Larsson from Barcelona putting the club into international spotlight.
Following a dire start to the season, coach Peter Swärdh was sacked and replaced by Stuart Baxter, the Englishman's first Swedish job for five years.
A strong end to the season saw Helsingborg briefly go into title contention, but that was not to be.
Instead, Helsingborg beat Gefle 2-0 in the cup final, qualifying for the UEFA Cup as an effect.
