The KR Chronicle

Vladimir Bubanja breaks a bone — 122 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 122 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

A brace, and Luke Rae takes the afternoon — 8.47
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Luke Rae provided it, and the 8.47 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

KR up to position 3
14 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Luke Rae the difference as KR beat FH
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Luke Rae. 3‑2 against FH, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Kristinn Bodvarsson is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

The manager makes an example of Filip Jović
“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.

One of those days for Aron Sigurðarson
There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.25, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

A masterclass from Stefán Árni Geirsson
Marked 8.17 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.
