Market21 Jun 2032

Huesca say no — this time

The offer from Betis for Daniel Solís was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad21 Jun 2032

Juan Pérez 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 Huesca this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom21 Jun 2032

The numbers do not look good at Huesca

Wages have outrun income and the accountants have started attending meetings they used to send apologies to. Ambition comes second in a season like this.

Squad21 Jun 2032

A row about effort at Huesca

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

The dugout21 Jun 2032

Juan Pérez has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Huesca will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout21 Jun 2032

The manager makes an example of Isac Galván

“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.

Market21 Jun 2032

The Alexis Domínguez question follows Huesca around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Alexis Domínguez’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The terraces21 Jun 2032

The Alexis Domínguez rumours reach the terraces

What was a back-page link has become a chant, and the chant is not friendly. Huesca would rather it were settled quietly, and it has stopped being quiet.

The dugout21 Jun 2032

Jacob Cook 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 Jacob Cook has written the date down.

The terraces29 Dec 2031

Supporters organise against the Huesca 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.

Squad29 Dec 2031

94 days out for Juan Pérez after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Huesca will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Match27 Dec 2031

The wait goes on for Huesca

9 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.

Boardroom29 Dec 2031

The scrutiny sharpens at Huesca

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

The dugout29 Dec 2031

Malaick Bacar: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Huesca have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad29 Dec 2031

Juan Pérez 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 Huesca this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match27 Dec 2031

No clean sheets in sight for Huesca

5 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.

Squad29 Dec 2031

A row about effort at Huesca

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

Boardroom29 Dec 2031

Belts tighten at Huesca

The accounts are being read more closely than the results. Wages before ambition is the order of business now, and the manager has been told so.

The terraces8 Sep 2031

Anger at Huesca 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.

Squad8 Sep 2031

A fracture rules Gabriel Bravo out for 115 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Huesca will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market8 Sep 2031

Neo Drugge Hysén hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Huesca can pretend not to have heard.

Squad8 Sep 2031

A one-man rearguard from Juan Pérez

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Squad8 Sep 2031

Juan Pérez 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 Huesca this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad8 Sep 2031

Words at Huesca training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jordi Martín 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.

Match6 Sep 2031

Daniel Solís’s goal not enough for Huesca

Daniel Solís scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Albacete, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

The dugout8 Sep 2031

The manager makes an example of Jaime Escario

“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 dugout8 Sep 2031

Interim Coach answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑2, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

In brief
