The terraces17 Apr 2028
The mood at KTP has turned into something else
Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

The knee: Mustapha Coker out for 128 days
128 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. KTP lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.
Match15 Apr 2028
The wait goes on for KTP
10 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.
Match15 Apr 2028
KTP taken apart

5 academy graduates step up at KTP
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 targets17 Apr 2028
Door shut on Loic Essomba
