The dugout18 Oct 2027

Jonás Ramalho says KV Kortrijk 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.

Match16 Oct 2027

No end in sight to KV Kortrijk's wait for a win

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

Squad18 Oct 2027

Tempers go at KV Kortrijk

Gilles Dewaele 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.

The dugout18 Oct 2027

The manager makes an example of Dennis Geiger

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match16 Oct 2027

KV Kortrijk come up short against Racing Genk

Racing Genk left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad18 Oct 2027

Boris Lambert 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.

Squad18 Oct 2027

Xander Vandermeirsch out for 26 days

The medical room confirms 26 days on the sidelines for Xander Vandermeirsch, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The dugout18 Oct 2027

A promise honoured at KV Kortrijk

Something was said to Matt Turner and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

The dugout18 Oct 2027

Marko Ilić is still paying for one afternoon at KV Kortrijk

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Boardroom24 May 2027

KV Kortrijk have won it

This is the season the town will measure the next twenty against. The trophy travels home with the squad, and the route through the streets was agreed days ago.

Match24 May 2027

Nobody above KV Kortrijk

First, on 63 points. The table is a fact and a fact is allowed to be enjoyed, which is as far as anybody at the club is prepared to go in public.

Squad24 May 2027

Goduine Koyalipou honoured for the season

The kind of year that ends with a name being read out in a hall. KV Kortrijk had the benefit of it every week and now have the problem of everybody else knowing.

Squad24 May 2027

Words at KV Kortrijk training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ken Masui 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.

The dugout24 May 2027

The manager makes an example of Rudy Kohon

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout24 May 2027

Sixtus Ogbuehi 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 KV Kortrijk, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout24 May 2027

The manager makes Gilles Ruyssen a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at KV Kortrijk. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

Loan watch24 May 2027

The goals keep arriving from Boris Lambert’s exile

4 goals in 30 games at KV Kortrijk — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at KV Kortrijk updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.

The dugout24 May 2027

Matthew Anderson keeps his manager's vote

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