The terraces

Supporters organise against the Waasland-Beveren board

A bad atmosphere can be waited out. A group of people meeting afterwards to decide what to do about it cannot, and everybody in the building knows which stage this is.

Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Waasland-Beveren

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Waasland-Beveren is running low.

Boardroom

Waasland-Beveren close the window on a squad of their own making

2 in and 0 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Squad

Beau Reus stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Beau Reus and Waasland-Beveren agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

A falling-out at Waasland-Beveren

Killian Sardella and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Sem Pepers gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Sem Pepers has just signed for Waasland-Beveren, and for once the answer mattered.

Market

Eyes on Kurt Abrahams again

The phone has started ringing about Kurt Abrahams again, and this time the name on the line is OH Leuven. Waasland-Beveren are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad

Mihajlo Cvetković 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.

Match

A bad afternoon for Waasland-Beveren against Racing Genk

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

In brief
