Match

10 matches without a win for Lucko

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

The terraces

Supporters organise against the Lucko board

A bad atmosphere can be waited out. A group of people meeting afterwards to decide what to do about it cannot, and everybody in the building knows which stage this is.

Match

Solin punish Lucko for switching off

2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Josip Bartulić will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Lucko escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Squad

19 days out for Robert Babic after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Lucko will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad

Words exchanged at Lucko

Leon Zeqiraj and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Niko Đolonga signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Niko Đolonga and Lucko agree another 3 years.

The dugout

No hiding place for Kristijan Blaževski

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

Squad

A row about effort at Lucko

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Beni Redzic was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Market

Still no ink between Lucko and Josip Dizdar

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Lucko, another week without a signature from Josip Dizdar.

Match

No end in sight to Lucko's wait for a win

9 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Lucko has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

27 days out for Robert Babic after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Lucko will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Match

Lucko cannot find the net

5 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Squad

Words exchanged at Lucko

Hassan Muhammad and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Words at Lucko training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Andrej Mićić 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Jakob Raspet

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match

Lucko come up short against Uljanik Pula

Uljanik Pula left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Match

Halfway: Lucko sit in position 14

12 points at the turn. The first half of a season is a promise; the second is a bill, and the town is about to find out which of the two this one was.

The dugout

Duje Ivanovic answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.
