Järnkaminerna

A common shortened form of the supporters club Järnkaminerna is JK.

The nickname derives from the 1950s when Djurgårdens IF's football division was renowned for their physique and physical training as well as their rough style of play on the pitch.

[2][3] The stripes of the Djurgården jersey, particularly the away colors of blue and dark red, looked somewhat similar to an old-style iron stove, the blue being the iron slats and the red the glow of the fire.

After this period the team became commonly known as "Järnkaminerna" (The Iron Stoves).

[4] Due to bad publicity, after numerous violent clashes, "Blue Saints" reformed, and in 1997 adopted the name "Järnkaminerna" and undertook an effort to whitewash the supporters club's name.
