Aaron Spetale 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 The request is on a desk at Hapoel Tel Aviv, and it is not being withdrawn.

Player ratings4 Sep 2028

Both of them Aaron Spetale's — 8.92

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.92, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Boardroom4 Sep 2028

Deadline passes with 14 signed and 17 gone

That is the business done at Hapoel Tel Aviv 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 targets4 Sep 2028

Yonas Malede due for a Hapoel Tel Aviv medical

Everything agreed with another club, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Match2 Sep 2028

Aaron Spetale the difference as Hapoel Tel Aviv beat Maccabi Petach Tikva

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Aaron Spetale. 2‑1 against Maccabi Petach Tikva, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Match2 Sep 2028

Nobody wins at Hapoel Tel Aviv

8 home matches unbeaten. Visiting sides arrive already talking about the atmosphere, which is usually the sign that they have half-lost before kickoff.

Squad4 Sep 2028

Words at Hapoel Tel Aviv training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Renzo Reynaga is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad4 Sep 2028

Durel Avounou wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Hapoel Tel Aviv know it.

Market4 Sep 2028

Matty Cudjoe told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Matty Cudjoe has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Hapoel Tel Aviv.

Match26 Aug 2028

Aaron Spetale leads the rout of Hapoel Kfar Saba

4‑0, and Aaron Spetale took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Hapoel Tel Aviv tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Xander Severina 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 Hapoel Tel Aviv, and it is not being withdrawn.

The dugout28 Aug 2028

Aaron Spetale keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Hapoel Tel Aviv may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad28 Aug 2028

3 goals for Aaron Spetale

The match ball belongs to Aaron Spetale, whose 3 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

Boardroom28 Aug 2028

Hapoel Tel Aviv tie Manor Melikson down

A new deal for the man in the dugout, and the clearest thing a board can say without calling a press conference about it. Stability is cheap to promise and expensive to deliver.

Boardroom28 Aug 2028

5 academy graduates step up at Hapoel Tel Aviv

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.

Squad28 Aug 2028

Renzo Reynaga wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Hapoel Tel Aviv know it.

Player ratings28 Aug 2028

Aaron Spetale was on a different afternoon to everybody else

9.26. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Market28 Aug 2028

Eden Refaelov steps up from the Hapoel Tel Aviv academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Eden Refaelov has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
