Boardroom1 Jan 2029
Gimnasia y Tiro are going up
Promotion, confirmed and mathematical, and a town that will not sleep much tonight. Whatever else this season had in it, it ends a division higher than it began.

Tobías Barrionuevo agrees terms with Nueva Chicago
The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Gimnasia y Tiro people have started saying his name in the past tense.

A loan move for Ayrton Sánchez is in the works
Gimnasia y Tiro have made the call to Tigre. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Rodrigo Olivares 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.

Alejandro Costa 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.
