Match18 Feb 2030

Zulte Waregem are in real trouble now

Position 14, 24 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Match18 Feb 2030

The season ends: position 14 for Zulte Waregem

The last league game has been played and the table has stopped moving: 24 points. The summer begins on Monday, and so does the argument about what it all meant.

Match16 Feb 2030

The wait goes on for Zulte Waregem

5 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Match16 Feb 2030

The goals have deserted Zulte Waregem

5 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Zulte Waregem can tell you which week it ends in.

Squad18 Feb 2030

A falling-out at Zulte Waregem

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

Boardroom18 Feb 2030

Nathan Moineau will join Zulte Waregem for nothing

The paperwork is done long before the player is. Nathan Moineau has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Zulte Waregem have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.

Transfer targets18 Feb 2030

Feyenoord tell Zulte Waregem: Lucas Jetten is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad18 Feb 2030

Laurent Lemoine 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.

Player ratings18 Feb 2030

Nikola Mituljikić beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 16. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Transfer targets29 Jan 2029

$5.9M settles it between the clubs for Taiga Hata

Sint-Truiden have accepted the money. What Zulte Waregem do not yet have is the man, and between here and the photograph is a conversation about wages that both sides are dreading.

The terraces29 Jan 2029

Anger at Zulte Waregem spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Match27 Jan 2029

7 matches without a win for Zulte Waregem

The run now stands at 7, and the questions being asked around Zulte Waregem are no longer polite ones.

The dugout29 Jan 2029

Diego Coutadeur keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Zulte Waregem may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Match27 Jan 2029

Zulte Waregem cannot find the net

6 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Transfer targets29 Jan 2029

The paperwork begins on Antoine Lejoly

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Zulte Waregem have done the hard part with Lokeren, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad29 Jan 2029

Words exchanged at Zulte Waregem

Brent Gabriel 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.

Squad29 Jan 2029

A row about effort at Zulte Waregem

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

Match27 Jan 2029

Sint-Truiden take the points off Zulte Waregem

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad29 May 2028

Words at Zulte Waregem training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Brent Gabriel 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.

Squad29 May 2028

Dedryck Courtois 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 Zulte Waregem this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout29 May 2028

The manager makes an example of Kévin Aubeneau

“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.

Market29 May 2028

The Thomas Claes story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Thomas Claes signs something — a contract at Zulte Waregem or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

The dugout29 May 2028

Wilguens Paugain 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 Wilguens Paugain has written the date down.

The dugout29 May 2028

Kadir Seven 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 Zulte Waregem, and both men came out saying it was fine.
