A fracture rules Kostas Kastidis out for 116 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Kongsvinger will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

A hiding for Kongsvinger
Beaten 0‑4 by Raufoss, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.
Market9 Aug 2032
Lyen Ferrant hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Kongsvinger can pretend not to have heard.

Mattias Lamhauge due for a Kongsvinger medical
Everything agreed with Bodo/Glimt, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Leon Hovland in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Kongsvinger this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Valerenga tell Kongsvinger: Oliver Edvardsen is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The manager makes an example of Jostein Gundersen
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
Boardroom9 Aug 2032
Kongsvinger cannot sign anybody
The embargo bars a fee being paid for a player, whatever the manager thinks the squad needs. Every rumour printed about this club between now and its lifting is a rumour about a deal that cannot happen.
Boardroom9 Aug 2032
133% of the income goes out in wages at Kongsvinger
Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.
In brief
- Squad Andreas Dybevik falls out with a teammate over standards
- Squad Kongsvinger lose Lars Lien
- Market Kongsvinger and Jostein Gundersen are talking past each other
