The day 74,22% of the Austrians voted, Ried played in Salzburg and many people ended up being surprised twice that day

Today I got up at noon, not knowing that today's vote would be a big surprise and disappointment for (not only) myself. Recently I talked a lot to my friends about the upcoming vote, and nearly everybody would have wished a coalition between the ÖVP and The Greens. This would have had the effect of a Green department of education and a conservative government. But as you can see at the results pictured below, Austria's future will be covered of a big shadow of uncertainty. There will probably be a big coalition and everybody was running in the last few years to stand still in near time. Well, never mind. Long live the democracy.





A big loser and three winners. Hardly anybody would have expected results like that.



And as I mentioned earlier in September, there was another exciting event today. Ried played in the Disco of Wals-Siezenheim - and surprised EVERYBODY. We managed to get a draw which was very lucky for the cans. Our players hit the crossbar three times and our forwards let many other big chances go away. So it came how it had to come, RBS managed to score the equalizer. Well normally I would be perfectly glad with a draw at the best Austrian team, but not today. This was the fifth draw in a row and we're still last in the table. But it does not look that bad, four points more and we would be 4th. Next game: Wacker (A) on the 14th of October. Objective: win the game!
