Michael Singh breaks a bone — 24 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 24 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Kosta Just says no to Hawke's Bay United

“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Kosta Just had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

Sam Wood 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 The request is on a desk at Waitakere United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Alfie Rogers turns down Waitakere United

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Auckland City keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Words exchanged at Waitakere United

Bill Colvey 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.

Francis Bell 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.

The dugout17 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Winston Colvey

“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.

Kosta Stamatelopoulos signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Kosta Stamatelopoulos commits to Waitakere United for another 3 years.

Liberato Kirwan placed on the list

Waitakere United have made Liberato Kirwan available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Michael Singh breaks a bone — 31 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 31 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Marco Nelson asks to leave Waitakere 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.

Waitakere United say no — this time

The offer from Hawke's Bay United for Callum Boxall was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Alfie Rogers is a medical away from Waitakere United

The deal with Auckland City is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Jeremy Foo turns down Waitakere United

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Auckland City keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Winston Colvey stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Winston Colvey and Waitakere United agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Door shut on Deklan Payne

Waitakere United asked and WaiBOP United said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Waitakere United

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

A falling-out at Waitakere United

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

Tempers go at Waitakere United

Bill Colvey 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.

Team Wellington watching Owen Bell

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Waitakere United have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Matt Sutton signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Matt Sutton and Waitakere United agree another 2 years.

Waitakere United ask about Jeremy Foo

A loan enquiry to Auckland City: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

A loan move for Deklan Van Hattum is in the works

Waitakere United have made the call to Hawke's Bay United. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.
