The Baranovichi Post
Match26 Aug 2028
The wait goes on for Baranovichi
17 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Baranovichi leaking at the back
11 matches, two or more conceded in every one of them. Sides that create as much as this can live with it for a while. Nobody lives with it forever.

Nowhere to hide for Baranovichi
1‑4 against Slavia Mozyr, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.
Boardroom28 Aug 2028
The silence upstairs is getting loud at Baranovichi
Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Eyes on Timur Pukhov again
The phone has started ringing about Timur Pukhov again, and this time the name on the line is Slutsk. Baranovichi are listening politely and promising nothing.

Akim Belokhonov is in the form of his life
A season average of 7.22 with 19 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

A falling-out at Baranovichi
Timur Pukhov and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Baranovichi rebuffed over Vladislav Cheretun
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Gomel have kept their man, and Baranovichi go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Egor Lapun 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.
In brief
