Robert Völkl goes up and wins it — 7.72

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.72 for the rest of it.

Match22 Aug 2026

No end in sight to Grodig's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Grodig has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Jo Coppens in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Grodig this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words at Grodig training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luís Silva is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad24 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Luís Silva

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Luís Silva, and the manager let it.

Franck Rivollier runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match22 Aug 2026

Grodig and Sturm Graz take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Florian Neureiter has had enough of the bench

“I did not come here to warm up in front of people.” He is out of contract eventually, he is old enough to count the weeks, and Grodig will have to give him a reason to stay or an exit.

Grodig bring in an old head

Peter Haring is 33 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Gabriel Lukačević hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Grodig can pretend not to have heard.

The ground has had enough

“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 9 of the 25 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Gabriel Lukačević signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Gabriel Lukačević and Grodig agree another 3 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Grodig

Alexander Schwaighofer was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Gabriel Lukačević falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces3 Aug 2026

Grodig supporters have found a favourite in Vlado Graboviča

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Vlado Graboviča has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match1 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Grodig against Austria Wien

0‑2 to Austria Wien, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad3 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Robert Völkl

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Robert Völkl, and the manager let it.

Market3 Aug 2026

Still no ink between Grodig and Robert Völkl

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Grodig, another week without a signature from Robert Völkl.
