Squad19 May 2031

54 days out for Sebas Mosquera after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Sanjoanense will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Tobias Solbakken 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 The request is on a desk at Sanjoanense, and it is not being withdrawn.

Match19 May 2031

Sanjoanense refuse to drop out of the race

Position 3, 33 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Squad19 May 2031

Gabriel Tigrão is named among the best

There are footballers who have a good season and footballers a season is remembered for, and the second kind get their names read out in a hall in the summer. Sanjoanense will be quietly delighted and privately nervous.

Squad19 May 2031

A row about effort at Sanjoanense

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

Squad19 May 2031

Time is catching up with Zakaria Draoui

Everybody at Sanjoanense saw it before anybody said it, which is how this always goes. At 37 the decline is real and measurable — 3 points — and the only question left is how the club handles somebody it owes a great deal to.

Only the photograph left for Martim Ribeiro

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Martim Ribeiro will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Sanjoanense the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Marcelo Marques 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 The request is on a desk at Sanjoanense, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad18 Feb 2030

Dija falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Transfer targets18 Feb 2030

Door shut on Ian Timmerman

Sanjoanense asked and Pacos de Ferreira said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad18 Feb 2030

A falling-out at Sanjoanense

Martim Ribeiro and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout18 Feb 2030

Dija 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.

Squad18 Feb 2030

Lucas Conceicao signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Lucas Conceicao commits to Sanjoanense for another 3 years.

The dugout18 Feb 2030

Martim Ribeiro knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Martim Ribeiro trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Squad18 Feb 2030

Alberto Targa: “I am not a substitute”

“I have done everything asked of me in training and it has not changed a thing on a Saturday.” The most familiar complaint in football, and one Sanjoanense will have to answer with minutes or with a transfer.
