When Stattena played in the best tier Allsvenskan in the 1920s and 1930s, they had an almost Southern European support group, who watched the training sessions, lively discussed lineups etc at the beer cafes, and met the team at the train station when they returned to Helsingborg after away matches. Unfortunately, opposing supporters were also hit by a rain of beer bottles, which were thrown at them. When the star player and future national team player Knut Kroon was sold from Stattena to arch-rival HIF, he could barely show up in town.
