Nobody could get near Stefán Árni Geirsson
Successful dribbles: 29. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Aron Sigurðarson 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 KR this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Arnór Ingvi Traustason 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.

Breki Freyr Ágústsson’s goal not enough for KR
Breki Freyr Ágústsson scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Keflavik, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

The manager makes an example of Aron Sigurðarson
“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.

5 new faces, and KR are still learning each other
A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Tomás Bernardo never got going
5.18 on the card. Some afternoons a footballer looks like a man who has only just been introduced to the game, and this was one of them.
Market11 Sep 2028
The Luke Rae talk will not go away
Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. KR know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

A day to forget for Ben Hatton
Marked 5.80, and generously at that. Nothing came off, and by the end the crowd had stopped expecting it to.
In brief
