Stefan Boxall asks to leave Southern United
“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.

Southern United turn down Team Wellington for Callum Fenton
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Southern United close the window on a squad of their own making
0 in and 2 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

A falling-out at Southern United
George Butler and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Matt Colvey 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.

Christopher Morgan is no longer first choice
The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Christopher Morgan has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

The manager makes an example of Noah Tuiloma
“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.

Still no ink between Southern United and Noah Wood
“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Southern United, another week without a signature from Noah Wood.

Tommy Payne 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.
