The terraces26 Mar 2029

The mood at Maricá has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Market26 Mar 2029

Rafael Carioca puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Maricá, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad26 Mar 2029

Tempers go at Maricá

Flávio Ramos 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.

Boardroom26 Mar 2029

Maricá cannot sign anybody

The embargo bars a fee being paid for a player, whatever the manager thinks the squad needs. Every rumour printed about this club between now and its lifting is a rumour about a deal that cannot happen.

Squad26 Mar 2029

A row about effort at Maricá

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

Boardroom26 Mar 2029

Maricá are $9.9M in the red

The borrowing is past what the bank agreed, which is the line where a debt stops being how football is financed and starts being a problem. Every phone-in in this town will quote the figure for the next five years.

The dugout26 Mar 2029

Joaquín Juárez 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.

Market26 Mar 2029

The Octávio question follows Maricá around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Octávio’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout26 Mar 2029

Geferson has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Geferson has written the date down.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Boardroom19 Mar 2029

Pressure builds in the Maricá boardroom

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

Market19 Mar 2029

Stathis Panikidis 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 Maricá can pretend not to have heard.

Squad19 Mar 2029

A falling-out at Maricá

Felipe Carvalho and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad19 Mar 2029

Words at Maricá training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Flávio Ramos 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.

Market19 Mar 2029

The Felipe Carvalho story refuses to die

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

The dugout19 Mar 2029

Thallis knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Maricá, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout19 Mar 2029

The manager makes Geferson a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Maricá. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

Market19 Mar 2029

Joaquín Juárez placed on the list

Maricá have made Joaquín Juárez available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Squad19 Mar 2029

The penny has dropped for Mosquito

He looks like a man who lives here now rather than one who is working here. It took most of a season, and at Maricá the difference is visible from the back of the stand.
