And after an exciting qualifying double meeting against Linköpings FF, decided by a penalty shootout in front of more than 6000 attenders at Landskrona Intellectual Property, his club was back at a decent level at least.
In 1986 Stefan Nilsson brought Danish manager Kurt Stendahl to the club And two Danish players as well, Bo With and January Nielsen. And as newcomers at the second tier, the 1986 season appeared to work out rather well, yet he decided not to continue as chairman.

New chairman became Krister Clerselius.
