Marked for Eero Kamara

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match27 Jul 2043

HJK up to position 2

25 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Market27 Jul 2043

HJK turn down FF Jaro for Frankie Runham

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Match25 Jul 2043

HJK make home a hard place to visit

15 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

Player ratings27 Jul 2043

Iivo Nybäck, 33, rolls back the years — 8.25

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.25 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Market27 Jul 2043

Nathan Hamilton 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 HJK can pretend not to have heard.

Match25 Jul 2043

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

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

Squad27 Jul 2043

Tempers go at HJK

Iivo Nybäck 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.

Market27 Jul 2043

FC Lahti expected to open talks for Iivo Nybäck

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. HJK will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad27 Jul 2043

Ollie Harrison 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.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad1 Jun 2043

Ollie Harrison damages knee ligaments — 35 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 35 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.

Match1 Jun 2043

HJK are in among the leaders

Position 3 and 12 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

Player ratings1 Jun 2043

Age has not caught Aaron Issumo yet — 8.84

At 36 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.84 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad1 Jun 2043

Eero Kamara says HJK 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.

Market1 Jun 2043

Dmytro Panimash puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at HJK, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market1 Jun 2043

Only the photograph left for Édouard Da Silva

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Édouard Da Silva will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around HJK the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad1 Jun 2043

Iivo Nybäck 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 HJK this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match30 May 2043

HJK see off IFK Mariehamn

Three points for HJK, 3‑2 the final word against IFK Mariehamn in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Match30 May 2043

HJK make home a hard place to visit

9 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.
