Georgy Natabashvili hands in a written request

Chernomorets to lose Danil Krot for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Danil Krot has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Stanislav Biblyk 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 Chernomorets this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Nothing to show for Kamil Hajduk's season away
4 appearances, 0 clean sheets, and a goalkeeper no further forward than the day he left. Whether that belongs to him, to the club that borrowed him or to the people who arranged it is the argument Chernomorets will have this month.

Timur Matveev on the point
“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Timur Matveev after the 1‑1 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.
