The Spartak 1918 Post

15 Mar 2027
From our football correspondent Uneasy

The dugout

Pedro Victor keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Spartak 1918 may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Loan watch

19 goals on loan for Daniel Halachev

26 appearances at Fratria and the goals keep coming. Spartak 1918 are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Squad

Emmanuel John 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

Tempers go at Spartak 1918

Mihail Tsonev 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.

The dugout

A promise honoured for Vasco Oliveira

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Spartak 1918 told Vasco Oliveira something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Dimo Krastev

“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.

The Spartak 1918 Post

1 Feb 2027
From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match

7 matches without a win for Spartak 1918

The run now stands at 7, and the questions being asked around Spartak 1918 are no longer polite ones.

Market

Saad Moukachar asks to leave Spartak 1918

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Emmanuel John at 21 — 7.82

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Emmanuel John did not need any: 7.82, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

The dugout

Ognyan Vladimirov says Spartak 1918 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.

Boardroom

Deadline passes with 1 signed and 1 gone

That is the business done at Spartak 1918 until the window opens again. Whether it was enough will be answered on Saturdays rather than in a column, and the first Saturday is close.

Squad

Xande wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Spartak 1918 can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad

Words exchanged at Spartak 1918

Florian Krebs 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

Door shut on Nasko Milev

Spartak 1918 asked and Turan Tovuz said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

The terraces

One of their own: Emmanuel John

He is 21 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
