The PSK Pervorechenskoe Post
Squad8 Sep 2031
A knee injury of the worst kind for Adam Rychlý
120 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. PSK Pervorechenskoe lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.
Boardroom8 Sep 2031
Deadline passes with 11 signed and 6 gone
That is the business done at PSK Pervorechenskoe 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.
Transfer targets8 Sep 2031
Rostislav Kurdyumov is a medical away from PSK Pervorechenskoe
The deal with Spartak Moscow is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.
Squad8 Sep 2031
Danila Meksh signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Danila Meksh and PSK Pervorechenskoe agree another 4 years.
Boardroom8 Sep 2031
Wages swallow 235% of the PSK Pervorechenskoe income
Every club pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time it has been tried.
Market8 Sep 2031
Tver watching Matvey Kholin
The interest is real enough to have reached print. PSK Pervorechenskoe have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.
Boardroom8 Sep 2031
No signings allowed at PSK Pervorechenskoe
The manager may talk to whoever he likes and may pay nobody. A squad survives a window like this by borrowing, by promoting, and by hoping the injuries land somewhere else.
Market8 Sep 2031
Still no ink between PSK Pervorechenskoe and Artem Philippov
“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at PSK Pervorechenskoe, another week without a signature from Artem Philippov.
The dugout8 Sep 2031
The manager makes an example of Ruslan Barinov
“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.
In brief
- Looking ahead Danila Meksh goes back to face Sibir
- The dugout Marcel Muller has become a man the manager trusts
- Squad Miłosz Pacek still has not settled
