The terraces

Anger at Sint-Truiden 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.

Match

Chastening afternoon for Sint-Truiden

A 0‑3 beating by Francs Borains was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Squad

Fuhna Wirsiy Nsolo arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Fuhna Wirsiy Nsolo has, at Sint-Truiden, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets

Sint-Truiden rebuffed over Khalid Hachadi

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Westerlo have kept their man, and Sint-Truiden go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

A row about effort at Sint-Truiden

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

Squad

Tempers go at Sint-Truiden

Isaías Delpupo 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.

Boardroom

Doors closed at Sint-Truiden

The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.

The dugout

A promise honoured at Sint-Truiden

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

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑3 Nacer Nainggolan left the room before anybody could ask which.

In brief

Back issues
95 Edition

The KV Kortrijk Post

22 May 2028
From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

69 days out for Thierry Ambrose after a fracture

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

Boardroom

Pressure builds in the KV Kortrijk boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Squad

A muscle injury sidelines Antoine Bernier for 14 days

Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. KV Kortrijk will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.

Squad

Words at KV Kortrijk training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Lars-Jørgen Salvesen 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.

Squad

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 dugout

When it matters, Ilan Hurtevent plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market

Joris Kayembe runs his contract down

1 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs KV Kortrijk money.

The dugout

Théo Maréchal asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

Stanley Wilson joins KV Kortrijk on a free

No fee and no drama: Stanley Wilson has signed at KV Kortrijk, and the wage bill is the only line that moved.
