The Grodig Courier

Serafin Bütow 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 Grodig can pretend not to have heard.

No end in sight to Grodig's wait for a win
4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Grodig has to find a result from somewhere.

Words at Grodig training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Carlos Rosel 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.

No clean sheets in sight for Grodig
4 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.

Tempers go at Grodig
Jonas Perrault was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Sturm Graz take the points off Grodig
Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
Squad24 Aug 2026
The manager makes an example of Serafin Bütow
“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.

Lukas Onisiwo signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Lukas Onisiwo and Grodig agree another 3 years.

Carlos Rosel joins Grodig on a free
No fee and no drama: Carlos Rosel has signed at Grodig, and the wage bill is the only line that moved.
