4 matches without a win for JIPPO
The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around JIPPO are no longer polite ones.

A falling-out at JIPPO
Juho Lehtiranta and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Boardroom30 Apr 2029
JIPPO ask Dinamo Kirov the expensive question
The target is Konstantin Serov, the approach is real, and the compensation clause is the whole conversation. Clubs deny this kind of story right up until the photograph.

JIPPO come up short against SJK Akatemia

Both jobs done by Suren Hagop — 6.57
A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 11 actions, 6.57, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

A row about effort at JIPPO
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Suren Hagop was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
The dugout30 Apr 2029
Eero Lam faces the questions
“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Eero Lam after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.
The dugout30 Apr 2029
No hiding place for Pharez Pöllänen
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Pharez Pöllänen, and the manager let it.
