Squad

Tobias Sana damages knee ligaments — 90 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 90 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

The dugout

Hampus Gustafsson says Örgryte 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 7 signed and 3 gone

That is the business done at Örgryte 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

A falling-out at Örgryte

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

Player ratings

William Hofvander beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 21. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad

Tiago Galeiras gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Tiago Galeiras has just signed for Örgryte, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Mikael Dyrestam is slowing down

At 35, 3 points below where he was, and a body that has started charging interest. It happens to all of them and it is still the hardest paragraph on this page.

Boardroom

3 academy graduates step up at Örgryte

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.

Transfer targets

Örgryte rebuffed over Oskari Paavola

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Ilves have kept their man, and Örgryte go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

In brief
