The Lincoln City Post

22 Jul 2030
From our football correspondent Steady

Market

Diego López Rivadeneira asks to leave Lincoln City

“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.

Transfer targets

No deal for Bradley Fink at that price

Lincoln City offered $8.0M; Wycombe Wanderers said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

The dugout

James Bailey keeps the receipts

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

Squad

The step up is real for Edward Davis

At 17 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Transfer targets

Liverpool tell Lincoln City: Martin Dúbravka 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.

Squad

Words at Lincoln City training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Andrei Coubiş 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

Josh Honohan 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 Lincoln City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Lincoln City lose Edward Stewart

39 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

The dugout

Elidon O'Boyle gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The Fakel Courier

25 Sep 2028
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match

No mercy from Fakel

Baltika will want this one forgotten quickly: 4‑1, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Fakel were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Match

Fakel refuse to drop out of the race

Position 2, 25 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Player ratings

Nikita Saltykov beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 26. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Market

Ilja Vasin has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Fakel they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Words exchanged at Fakel

Artem Maximenko 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.

Player ratings

Artem Maximenko was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.44. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Squad

Nuri Abdokov 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 ratings

Ninety minutes of Stepan Oganesyan at his very best

Marked 8.06. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Fakel.

Squad

Home is on Cory Adjetey-Brew's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Fakel are dealing with a man who wants a different country.
