A knee injury of the worst kind for Ahmed Nabil Manga

70 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Police Union lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market11 Sep 2028

Ahmed Menshawi 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 Police Union can pretend not to have heard.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Words exchanged at Police Union

Abdallah Zizo 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.

Squad11 Sep 2028

A row about effort at Police Union

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

Match9 Sep 2028

Police Union come up short against El Dakhleya

El Dakhleya left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings11 Sep 2028

Abdallah Zizo runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Transfer targets11 Sep 2028

Mohamed Wagdi stays at Ismaily as time runs out

A deal that was a phone call from completion at lunchtime was dead by midnight. Police Union will try again when the window opens; Ismaily may not be selling by then.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Ali Ehab stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Ali Ehab and Police Union agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout11 Sep 2028

The manager makes an example of Amr Gomaa

“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.

Oliver Stamatelopoulos 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 Canterbury United can pretend not to have heard.

Squad30 Aug 2027

The step up is real for Dane Colvey

At 19 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.

Squad30 Aug 2027

A falling-out at Canterbury United

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

Squad30 Aug 2027

Late improvement for Sam Smith

At 26 the improving is meant to be over, and it is not: 3 points better than a year ago. It happens to the ones who take the boring parts seriously.

Squad30 Aug 2027

Stefan Reid signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Stefan Reid and Canterbury United agree another 3 years.

The dugout30 Aug 2027

Cameron Rufer gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Cameron Rufer is on it.

The dugout30 Aug 2027

Jake McCowatt 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 Canterbury United, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market30 Aug 2027

Biel Flores leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Biel Flores leaves Canterbury United the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.

Sam Payne keeps the receipts

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

Squad22 Feb 2027

Words at Canterbury United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Joe De Vries 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.

Squad22 Feb 2027

Marco Cacace 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 Canterbury United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
