Match

Sandviken refuse to drop out of the race

Position 3, 36 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Market

Hampus Zackrisson 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 Sandviken can pretend not to have heard.

The dugout

Mohammed Mahammed keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Sandviken may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Market

Adam Kiani has one foot out of the door

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

Transfer targets

Sandviken rebuffed over Joackim Fagerjord

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. BK Hacken have kept their man, and Sandviken go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

A falling-out at Sandviken

Christian Wagner and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The terraces

One of their own: Liam Vabö

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match

Sandviken find a way past Östersund

Östersund made Sandviken work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

Words at Sandviken training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Anomnachi Chidi 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.

In brief
