Match19 Apr 2027

Every point is an argument now for Skonto

Position 5 and 8 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Market19 Apr 2027

Alvis Dubra asks to leave Skonto

“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.

Squad19 Apr 2027

Raivis Oss keeps Skonto in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings19 Apr 2027

Nobody could get near Vladimirs Vanins

Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match17 Apr 2027

No end in sight to Skonto's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Skonto has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad19 Apr 2027

Mihkel Ainsalu 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 Skonto this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match17 Apr 2027

Skonto come up short against Ventspils

Ventspils left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad19 Apr 2027

The manager makes an example of Janis Kamess

“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.

Squad19 Apr 2027

Vladimirs Savalnieks 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.

Match5 Apr 2027

Skonto up to position 2

8 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Raivis Oss 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 Skonto this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Alvis Dubra signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Alvis Dubra commits to Skonto for another 4 years.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Words at Skonto training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Vladimirs Vanins 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.

Loan watch5 Apr 2027

Marcis Kamess has seen enough of Daugavpils

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Skonto, and 0 appearances in 9 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad5 Apr 2027

The manager makes an example of Mihkel Ainsalu

“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.

Match3 Apr 2027

Skonto share the spoils with Metta/LU

A 1‑1 draw with Metta/LU leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Player ratings5 Apr 2027

Gatis Ciganovs could not find anything

5.72. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Alvis Bulvitis breaks a bone — 83 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 83 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market17 Aug 2026

Skonto say no — this time

The offer from Liepaja for Raivis Oss 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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Skonto

Mihkel Ainsalu 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.

Market17 Aug 2026

Molodechno join the queue for Roberts Jagodinskis

Add another name to the list: Molodechno have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Roberts Jagodinskis. The answer from Skonto has not changed — yet.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Skonto beat the market to Bruno Melnis from Liepaja

Liepaja will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Bruno Melnis has pre-agreed a move to Skonto, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Words at Skonto training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Idriz Batha 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.
