Squad

A fracture rules Reece Henderson out for 108 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason WaiBOP United will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

Chris Colvey 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 WaiBOP United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Tommy Cacace is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 23 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Market

Waitakere United come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and WaiBOP United did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Transfer targets

WaiBOP United make their move for Jordan Vale

$70.0K on the table at Auckland City. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad

Words exchanged at WaiBOP United

Chris 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.

Transfer targets

Auckland City tell WaiBOP United: Alfie Rogers is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout

Noah Singh gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market

Team Wellington watching Clayton Wood

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

Squad

Djordje Gacinovic stays put

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

Squad

Words at WaiBOP United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Stefan Reid 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.

Market

The shop window has Michael Barbarouses in it

WaiBOP United have let the market know Michael Barbarouses can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.
