Squad21 Mar 2033

Words exchanged at Dinamo Stavropol

Dmitry Kratkov and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Daniel Ibañez 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.

The dugout21 Mar 2033

Apostolos Barbopoulos is still paying for one afternoon at Dinamo Stavropol

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

The dugout21 Mar 2033

When it matters, Timothy Batshuayi plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market21 Mar 2033

The Dmitry Kratkov question follows Dinamo Stavropol around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Dmitry Kratkov’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Squad21 Mar 2033

Competition arrives for Denis Yakuba

A new face in his position and a shirt he thought he owned suddenly up for discussion. Dinamo Stavropol have promised nothing, which is what clubs promise at this stage.

Boardroom2 Jun 2031

Shimal put Interim Coach on notice

The board have said in public what they had been saying in private. Results between now and the next meeting decide it, and everybody in the building knows the arithmetic.

Boardroom2 Jun 2031

Emergency meeting at Shimal

The whole football department in one room on a weekday morning. Nothing was announced afterwards, which is what a board announces when it has run out of patience.

Market2 Jun 2031

Daniel Ibañez 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 Shimal can pretend not to have heard.

Squad2 Jun 2031

Nihad Tamazov signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Nihad Tamazov commits to Shimal for another 2 years.

Squad2 Jun 2031

Tempers go at Shimal

Elmin Bayramov 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.

Boardroom2 Jun 2031

$74.7K from the owner keeps Shimal afloat

The gap in the accounts was filled from upstairs again. Supporters are entitled to be grateful and to ask what happens the month it is not, and both feelings arrive together.

Transfer targets2 Jun 2031

Door shut on Namig Nazarov

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

Squad2 Jun 2031

Nihad Tamazov 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.

Market2 Jun 2031

The ambition of Abdulla Seydəhmedov outgrows Shimal early

Signings arrive with a picture of the club in their head, and this one’s picture was bigger than the building. He will play well and he will be gone, in that order, and everybody knows it.

Squad28 Apr 2031

Mamadou Sylla damages knee ligaments — 133 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 133 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad28 Apr 2031

32 days out for Elly Carlos after a fracture

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

Market28 Apr 2031

Daniel Ibañez asks to leave Shimal

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad28 Apr 2031

Words exchanged at Shimal

Dimitris Politis and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad28 Apr 2031

Cavanşir Şahbazli 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.

Boardroom28 Apr 2031

The borrowing at Shimal reaches $3.5M

Past the limit the bank set, which is the line between a club being financed and a club being in trouble. $3.5M is now the number every conversation about this club will start with.
