A fracture rules Sondre Rossbach out for 48 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Tromso will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Tromso book their European place
Done, and with games to spare. Next season has floodlit nights against clubs from other countries in it, and the accounts have a line they did not have last year.

Lars Olden Larsen says Tromso went back on their word
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

The manager makes an example of Sondre Rossbach
“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.

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

Mathias Tønnessen gets picked when it counts
Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Mathias Tønnessen is on it.

The Vegard Erlien question follows Tromso around
Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Vegard Erlien’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

William Kaastrup knocks on the manager’s door
“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and William Kaastrup trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Mads Mikkelsen: “I am not a substitute”
“I have done everything asked of me in training and it has not changed a thing on a Saturday.” The most familiar complaint in football, and one Tromso will have to answer with minutes or with a transfer.
