Match

9 matches without a win for Petrojet

The run now stands at 9, and the questions being asked around Petrojet are no longer polite ones.

Market

Mahmoud Ahmed Morsi has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Petrojet they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Tawfik Mohamed 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 Petrojet this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Daouda Doumbia 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Daouda Doumbia

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Daouda Doumbia, and the manager let it.

Match

Ittihad take the points off Petrojet

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Hamza Khaled

30 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Petrojet lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Mostafa El Badry out for 42 days

The medical room confirms 42 days on the sidelines for Mostafa El Badry, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

Ahmed Yassin 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 Petrojet this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Petrojet

2 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Match

Petrojet come up short against El Masry

El Masry left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market

Petrojet promote Bassem Hamdi from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Bassem Hamdi has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

One of our own: Fathy Ashour joins the Petrojet first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Fathy Ashour is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Squad

No hiding place for Koffi

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Koffi, and the manager let it.

Boardroom

No investment in the facilities at Petrojet

Nothing about this will be in a press release. A plan went upstairs, came back rejected, and the version of the club that would have existed in three years' time just quietly stopped being possible.

In brief
