Squad

A move Tadej Zonta would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Tadej Zonta is living that version at Bistrica, and it tends to show in the first month.

Transfer targets

Mirko Šugić turns down Bistrica

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: another club keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad

Gašper Pečnik signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Gašper Pečnik and Bistrica agree another 3 years.

As if he never left: Marcos Tavares returns

Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Marcos Tavares is a Bistrica player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Market

Andraž Borovnik is a Bistrica player again

He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Squad

A falling-out at Bistrica

Nejc Pušnik and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

One of our own: Benjamin Bijol joins the Bistrica first team

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

Market

Bistrica promote Rok Lovric from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Rok Lovric has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

The dugout

No hiding place for Andraž Borovnik

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Andraž Borovnik, and the manager let it.

In brief

  • Match A bad afternoon for Bistrica against Bilje
  • Squad This league is too small for Nejc Pušnik
  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
