The Tarxien Rainbows Courier

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market

Andreas Vella puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Tarxien Rainbows, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 8 in, 1 out at Tarxien Rainbows

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 8 arrived, 1 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Squad

Words exchanged at Tarxien Rainbows

Wesley 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.

Transfer targets

Tarxien Rainbows rebuffed over Abiodun Adegoke

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

Squad

Ángel Valverde 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

Vinicius Nunes signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Vinicius Nunes commits to Tarxien Rainbows for another 3 years.

Squad

A step back for Yilson Mosquera at Tarxien Rainbows

Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.

Looking ahead

Tarxien Rainbows take on the side everybody is chasing

Floriana arrive as leaders. A side at the top is beaten roughly once a month, and the club that does it gets a week it remembers for a year.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Marco Dimech

“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.

In brief
