Player ratings

Oscar Kapskarmo scores twice — 8.70

Two goals and a mark of 8.70 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Herman Stengel yet — 8.28

At 33 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.28 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Match

Oscar Kapskarmo the difference as Stromsgodset beat Fredrikstad

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Oscar Kapskarmo. 3‑1 against Fredrikstad, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

One of our own: Birger Normann joins the Stromsgodset first team

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

Thomas Ryerson steps up from the Stromsgodset academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Thomas Ryerson 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.

Martin Normann steps up from the Stromsgodset academy

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

Stromsgodset promote Ole Bohinen from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Ole Bohinen 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Tor Erik Larsen

“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.

Squad

A falling-out at Stromsgodset

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

In brief
