Player ratings

A brace, and Aron Sasu takes the afternoon — 9.15

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Aron Sasu provided it, and the 9.15 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Håkon Volden at 21 — 7.75

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Håkon Volden did not need any: 7.75, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Market

Hassou Diaby 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 The request is on a desk at Åsane, and it is not being withdrawn.

The dugout

Hassou Diaby keeps the receipts

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

Match

Åsane get the job done against Hødd

A 4‑3 win over Hødd, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Match

7 goals as Åsane and Hødd go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Åsane and Hødd, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Squad

Tempers go at Åsane

Victor Divine 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 Åsane

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

A row about effort at Åsane

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Jonas Mortensen was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

In brief
