Market31 Mar 2036

Marcos Rodrigues asks to leave Ceilândia

“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.

Boardroom31 Mar 2036

Embargo at Ceilândia

No fees may be paid for anybody, whatever the squad needs. Every rumour about this club until it lifts is a rumour about a deal that cannot be done.

Squad31 Mar 2036

Words at Ceilândia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Fernando Portel is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

Anderson Brito gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Anderson Brito is on it.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

Kevin Núñez 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 Kevin Núñez trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

No hiding place for Danilo Borges

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

Squad18 Feb 2036

Fernando Portel breaks a bone — 16 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 16 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Boardroom18 Feb 2036

The borrowing at Ceilândia reaches $6.5M

Past the limit the bank set, which is the line between a club being financed and a club being in trouble. $6.5M is now the number every conversation about this club will start with.

The dugout18 Feb 2036

Carlos Mendes is still being punished for one mistake

Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.

Market18 Feb 2036

The Anderson Brito story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Anderson Brito signs something — a contract at Ceilândia or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Market18 Feb 2036

Erik Nemec placed on the list

Ceilândia have made Erik Nemec available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Squad18 Feb 2036

Jose Valdez still has not settled

A year in and the language has not come, the city has not opened up, and he eats alone more often than anybody at Ceilândia would like to admit. It is showing on Saturdays.

The dugout18 Feb 2036

Samuel Machado asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Boardroom18 Feb 2036

The Ceilândia academy earns its keep

109 graduates, from a department now rated 7 out of 20. Nothing about the academy appears in a result, and nothing about the club’s future exists without it.

Squad18 Feb 2036

Erik Nemec takes up the language

The least glamorous thing a foreign signing ever does and the one that decides most of them. A player who can hear the shout behind him is a different footballer from one who cannot.

The terraces5 Nov 2035

The mood at Ceilândia has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Boardroom5 Nov 2035

Ceilândia 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.

Squad5 Nov 2035

A one-man rearguard from Lucas Maticoli

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Squad5 Nov 2035

A falling-out at Ceilândia

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

Boardroom5 Nov 2035

The owner puts $327.7K into Ceilândia

This is money that keeps the lights on rather than money that buys a centre-half, and the difference is the whole story. A club funded by its owner rather than by its football has exactly one conversation left ahead of it.

Boardroom5 Nov 2035

Wages swallow 185% of the Ceilândia income

Every club pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time it has been tried.

Match3 Nov 2035

A bad afternoon for Ceilândia against Figueirense

0‑1 to Figueirense, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout5 Nov 2035

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑1 defeat, delivered by Interim Coach to a room that had heard them before.

Squad5 Nov 2035

Anderson Brito makes the team of the month

Four or five weekends of consistency, measured against everybody else in the division. A quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.
