The terraces1 Oct 2040

Anger at SV Ried spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Match1 Oct 2040

SV Ried sink to position 9

6 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Player ratings1 Oct 2040

Andreas Dragovic scores twice — 8.25

Two goals and a mark of 8.25 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad1 Oct 2040

14 seasons of Tomás Cruz

265 appearances across 14 seasons in these colours. Careers like that are not built any more, and SV Ried know what they have.

Squad1 Oct 2040

Sebastian Prass: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” SV Ried have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad1 Oct 2040

Tempers go at SV Ried

Fabian Rossdorfer 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.

Boardroom1 Oct 2040

SV Ried move for Robert Wright

The approach has been made to USM Khenchela and the answer is somebody else's to give. These things are settled in private and reported in public, usually in that order.

Match29 Sep 2040

SV Ried get the job done against Altach

A 2‑1 win over Altach, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad1 Oct 2040

SV Ried lose Wolfgang Kalajdzic

27 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Boardroom23 Jul 2040

The silence upstairs is getting loud at SV Ried

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Squad23 Jul 2040

Philipp Hinteregger breaks a bone — 54 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 54 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad23 Jul 2040

Thomas Alaba keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” SV Ried may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Dejan Arnautovic damages knee ligaments — 32 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 32 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.

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” SV Ried may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad19 Mar 2040

Fabian Rossdorfer 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 SV Ried this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad21 Feb 2039

Patrick Touray 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.

Squad21 Feb 2039

When it matters, Peter Kiedl 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.
