Boardroom

FC Fredericia go down

It is arithmetic now, and the arithmetic is done. A summer of hard questions starts early at FC Fredericia, and next season's fixture list reads very differently.

Boardroom

FC Fredericia spell it out for Interim Coach

The board’s statement ran to three sentences and one of them mentioned results. Interim Coach has managed long enough to translate: win soon, or the next statement is shorter.

Market

Mads Søndergaard asks to leave FC Fredericia

“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.

Boardroom

The FC Fredericia board call everybody in

Nothing has been announced and everybody understands what it means. A board that summons the whole football department on a Tuesday morning is a board that has stopped believing the problem will fix itself.

Market

Mads Søndergaard is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at FC Fredericia is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market

Not going: Manolis Oikonomakis stays at FC Fredericia

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Esbjerg had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Transfer targets

Christian Vestergaard is a medical away from FC Fredericia

The deal with FC Copenhagen is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Market

Elton Musliu wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at FC Fredericia hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad

Tempers go at FC Fredericia

Adam Claridge 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.

In brief
