The Tondela Gazette
Match21 Nov 2026
No end in sight to Tondela's wait for a win
16 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Tondela has to find a result from somewhere.
Match23 Nov 2026
Every point is an argument now for Tondela
Position 18 and 2 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Rodrigo puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Tondela, and it is not being withdrawn.
Match21 Nov 2026
The goals have deserted Tondela
4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Tondela can tell you which week it ends in.

Words exchanged at Tondela
Rony Lopes 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.

A row about effort at Tondela
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Brayan Medina was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
Match21 Nov 2026
A bad afternoon for Tondela against Nacional
0‑2 to Nacional, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

No hiding place for Flávio Ramos
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Flávio Ramos, and the manager let it.
Squad23 Nov 2026
Tondela are still strangers to each other
11 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.
In brief
- The dugout Lucas Tavares answers for it
- Squad Jorge Mora stays put
- Market Tondela buy the years ahead of Jorge Mora
