The dugout15 Feb 2027

Máximo Alonso says Central Espanol went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Isaac Méndez out for 60 days

The medical room confirms 60 days on the sidelines for Isaac Méndez, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Words exchanged at Central Espanol

Máximo Alonso and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Boardroom15 Feb 2027

2 academy graduates step up at Central Espanol

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad15 Feb 2027

A row about effort at Central Espanol

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Marcos Montiel was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

One of our own: Sergio Viera joins the Central Espanol first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Sergio Viera is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

One of our own: Andres Da Silva joins the Central Espanol first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Andres Da Silva is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Match13 Feb 2027

A bad afternoon for Central Espanol against Cerro Largo

0‑1 to Cerro Largo, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

César gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Jonathan Dellarossa 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 Central Espanol this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Marcos Montiel 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.

Emiliano Márquez gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

When it matters, Lucas Pino plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

Exequiel Mereles knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Central Espanol, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

César keeps his manager's vote

The message was aimed at the stands as much as the dressing room: César plays, and the argument is closed until the manager decides otherwise.

Tempers go at Central Espanol

Máximo Alonso 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.

Jonathan Dellarossa 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.

When it matters, Rodolfo plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Ignacio Rodríguez knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Central Espanol, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market16 Nov 2026

The Jonathan Dellarossa story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Jonathan Dellarossa signs something — a contract at Central Espanol or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Emiliano Márquez has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Emiliano Márquez has written the date down.
