The terraces

The mood at B.93 has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Match

8 matches without a win for B.93

The run now stands at 8, and the questions being asked around B.93 are no longer polite ones.

The dugout

Charlie Wilson: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” B.93 have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Jonathan D'Ostilio puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at B.93, and it is not being withdrawn.

Match

The goals have deserted B.93

4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at B.93 can tell you which week it ends in.

Squad

Tempers go at B.93

Joël Kabongo 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.

Boardroom

5 academy graduates step up at B.93

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad

Wilhelm Nilsson 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.

Market

B.93 promote Casper Cornelius from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Casper Cornelius 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.

In brief
