Match

Stabaek run riot against Skeid

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Market

Only the photograph left for Magnus Lankhof Dahlby

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Magnus Lankhof Dahlby will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Stabaek the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

A day Sebastian Olderheim will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Player ratings

Sebastian Olderheim, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 8.26

A mark of 8.26 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 19-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Market

Stabaek turn down Ashanti Gold for Alagie Sanyang

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Boardroom

Stabaek to lose Andreas Hoven for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Andreas Hoven has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Anders Bjørntvedt Olsen

Stabaek asked and Lyn said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Transfer targets

No deal for Eirik Haugan at that price

Stabaek offered $98.0K; Molde said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to William Wendt

At 20 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

In brief
