Boardroom24 Mar 2036

Pressure builds in the Prykarpattia boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Match24 Mar 2036

Prykarpattia are in real trouble now

Position 14, 25 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Squad24 Mar 2036

Words exchanged at Prykarpattia

Tymur Butenko 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.

Squad24 Mar 2036

A row about effort at Prykarpattia

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

The dugout24 Mar 2036

No hiding place for Vladyslav Makarenko

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Vladyslav Makarenko, and the manager let it.

Market24 Mar 2036

The Tymur Butenko question follows Prykarpattia around

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

Market24 Mar 2036

Daniil Panin placed on the list

Prykarpattia have made Daniil Panin available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

The terraces24 Mar 2036

The Andriy Shevchenko rumours reach the terraces

What was a back-page link has become a chant, and the chant is not friendly. Prykarpattia would rather it were settled quietly, and it has stopped being quiet.

Squad24 Mar 2036

Maksym Burda has had enough of the bench

“I did not come here to warm up in front of people.” He is out of contract eventually, he is old enough to count the weeks, and Prykarpattia will have to give him a reason to stay or an exit.

Squad25 Feb 2036

Daniil Panin keeps Prykarpattia in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 12 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad25 Feb 2036

Maksym Burda damages knee ligaments — 38 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 38 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.

Boardroom25 Feb 2036

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Prykarpattia

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

Match25 Feb 2036

Every point is an argument now for Prykarpattia

Position 14 and 21 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

The dugout25 Feb 2036

Maksym Burda says Prykarpattia went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Boardroom25 Feb 2036

Deadline passes with 4 signed and 5 gone

That is the business done at Prykarpattia until the window opens again. Whether it was enough will be answered on Saturdays rather than in a column, and the first Saturday is close.

Squad25 Feb 2036

A row about effort at Prykarpattia

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

Transfer targets25 Feb 2036

Door shut on Juan Diego Jaramillo

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

Match23 Feb 2036

Prykarpattia come up short against Karpaty

Karpaty left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market21 Jan 2036

Daniil Panin 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 Prykarpattia can pretend not to have heard.

Match19 Jan 2036

No end in sight to Prykarpattia's wait for a win

8 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Prykarpattia has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad21 Jan 2036

6 saves: Daniil Panin was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Squad21 Jan 2036

Filip Karmelita 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 Jan 2036

A falling-out at Prykarpattia

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

Looking ahead21 Jan 2036

Prykarpattia face Rukh in the game that matters most

Two sides from the bottom of the table, three points, and an afternoon that will be described afterwards as a relegation decider by whoever loses it.

Match19 Jan 2036

Honours even between Prykarpattia and Kolos

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

The dugout21 Jan 2036

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Interim Coach chose the glass-half-full version of 1‑1; the supporters left with the other one.

The dugout21 Jan 2036

Somebody else is better right now than Yevhenii Stepanchuk

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Squad12 Nov 2035

7 saves: Daniil Panin was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 7 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Match10 Nov 2035

6 matches without a win for Prykarpattia

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around Prykarpattia are no longer polite ones.

The dugout12 Nov 2035

Maksym Burda: 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.” Prykarpattia have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad12 Nov 2035

Andriy Shevchenko signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Andriy Shevchenko and Prykarpattia agree another 4 years.

Squad12 Nov 2035

A row about effort at Prykarpattia

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

Match10 Nov 2035

Prykarpattia come up short against Polissia

Polissia left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad12 Nov 2035

Tempers go at Prykarpattia

Yevhenii Stepanchuk 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.

The dugout12 Nov 2035

Artem Buialskyi frozen out at Prykarpattia

This is not rotation. Artem Buialskyi has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Prykarpattia is pretending otherwise.

Player ratings12 Nov 2035

Ninety minutes of Filip Karmelita at his very best

Marked 8.07. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Prykarpattia.

In brief
