The terraces23 Jul 2029

The ground has had enough

“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 10 of the 40 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

Market23 Jul 2029

Only the photograph left for Lucas González

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Lucas González will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Jablonec the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Market23 Jul 2029

Samuel Beltrán asks to leave Jablonec

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings23 Jul 2029

Nemanja Tekijaški goes up and wins it — 7.85

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.85 for the rest of it.

Market23 Jul 2029

Eyes on Karlo Butić again

The phone has started ringing about Karlo Butić again, and this time the name on the line is Sigma Olomouc. Jablonec are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad23 Jul 2029

Tempers go at Jablonec

Sebastian Nebyla 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.

Squad23 Jul 2029

Max Bilać is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 22 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Player ratings23 Jul 2029

Nobody could get near Ebrima Singhateh

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Boardroom23 Jul 2029

10 academy players handed senior numbers at Jablonec

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad26 Feb 2029

Nikola Andrić damages knee ligaments — 92 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 92 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad26 Feb 2029

Ariel Bulacio breaks a bone — 114 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 114 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market26 Feb 2029

Soki Tamura 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 Jablonec can pretend not to have heard.

Squad26 Feb 2029

Lamin Jawo keeps the receipts

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

Squad26 Feb 2029

Tempers go at Jablonec

Jan Chramosta 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.

Market26 Feb 2029

The Sebastian Nebyla story refuses to die

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

Match23 Aug 2028

Jablonec march on in the cup

Slovacko are out and Jablonec go through, 4‑1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Squad28 Aug 2028

3 goals for Lamin Jawo

The match ball belongs to Lamin Jawo, whose 3 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

Player ratings28 Aug 2028

Age has not caught Lamin Jawo yet — 8.97

At 33 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.97 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Market28 Aug 2028

Soki Tamura 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 Jablonec can pretend not to have heard.

Squad28 Aug 2028

A move Ariel Bulacio would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Ariel Bulacio is living that version at Jablonec, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad28 Aug 2028

Jan Chramosta 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 Jablonec this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings28 Aug 2028

Pavel Juroška has a hand in both — 7.56

One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.56, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Squad28 Aug 2028

Max Bilać is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Dukla Prague join the queue for Eduard Sobol

Add another name to the list: Dukla Prague have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Eduard Sobol. The answer from Jablonec has not changed — yet.
