Match

Nowhere to hide for Skeid

0‑3 against Kongsvinger, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad

Tempers go at Skeid

Keivan Ghaedamini 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 Skeid

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

Skeid rebuffed over Michael Zeppieri

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

Market

Skeid promote Aron Daehli from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Aron Daehli 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.

One of our own: Lars Daehli joins the Skeid first team

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

Bjorn Normann steps up from the Skeid academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Bjorn Normann 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.

The dugout

Keivan Ghaedamini gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

In brief

  • Squad Mats Lillebo falls out with a teammate over standards
  • Boardroom Skeid board go back on their word
