A row about effort at Egersund
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Kasper Skaanes was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The name of Daniel Job keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Egersund say nothing, which says plenty.

Egersund add cover with Joshua Kayode
It is the least glamorous business a club does and the reason seasons do not collapse in February. Joshua Kayode is here for the weeks when three men are injured and somebody still has to play.
In brief
- Market Andrea Oliviero joins Egersund to strengthen the squad
