Match

10 matches without a win for Tarxien Rainbows

The run now stands at 10, and the questions being asked around Tarxien Rainbows are no longer polite ones.

Market

Vincenzo Cantisani asks to leave Tarxien Rainbows

“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.

Match

8 unbeaten for Tarxien Rainbows

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 8 matches without defeat is a foundation Tarxien Rainbows did not have in the autumn.

Market

Clive Bugeja is a Tarxien Rainbows player again

He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Market

Michael Galea comes home

The shirt still fits. Michael Galea is back at Tarxien Rainbows, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Market

Matthew Cilia comes home

The shirt still fits. Matthew Cilia is back at Tarxien Rainbows, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Squad

Aleksander Łubik 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.

Match

Tarxien Rainbows and Hibernians take a point apiece

It finished 2-2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad

Marek Mets signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Marek Mets commits to Tarxien Rainbows for another 3 years.

Market

Damir Srna 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 Tarxien Rainbows can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Tarxien Rainbows sign Marek Mets, one for the future

Marek Mets is 18, and Tarxien Rainbows have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.

Squad

Marek Mets stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Marek Mets and Tarxien Rainbows agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
