From our football correspondent Steady

Market17 Jan 2028

Ryan Barbarouses asks to leave Canterbury 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.

Market17 Jan 2028

Tim Waine attracts admirers

The name of Tim Waine has come up in conversations Canterbury United were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Market17 Jan 2028

Canterbury United turn down Rewa for Kendry Domingo

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad17 Jan 2028

Kye Shaw 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.

Tim Stamatelopoulos was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.03. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

The cruellest goal, and it is Clayton Sutton's

A touch he did not want, a bounce he could not have read, and his name in the wrong column. There is no consoling a man after one of these, and Canterbury United will not try tonight.

Match15 Jan 2028

Tim Stamatelopoulos rescues a point for Canterbury United

It needed Tim Stamatelopoulos to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Hawke's Bay United, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Squad17 Jan 2028

When it matters, Tommy Reid plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Squad17 Jan 2028

Sam Colvey 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.

The Southern United Herald

6 Dec 2027
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match4 Dec 2027

Nowhere to hide for Southern United

1‑5 against Auckland City, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad6 Dec 2027

Winston Sutton keeps Southern United 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.

Squad6 Dec 2027

Chris Van Hattum: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Southern United have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market6 Dec 2027

Jai Fenton 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 Southern United can pretend not to have heard.

Match4 Dec 2027

Callum Colvey among the goals in a wild afternoon

6 goals in one match, Callum Colvey on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Southern United and Auckland City.

Squad6 Dec 2027

Tempers go at Southern United

Callum 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.

Squad6 Dec 2027

Michael Cacace stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Michael Cacace and Southern United agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Boardroom6 Dec 2027

Inquest at Southern United

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.

Player ratings6 Dec 2027

Nobody could get near Winston Barbarouses

Successful dribbles: 7. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
