Match

No end in sight to Police Union's wait for a win

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

Squad

Walid Ouabdi gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match

Police Union and El Dakhleya take a point apiece

It finished 1-1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad

Omar El Hanoudi knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Police Union, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Squad

Azriel Gonzalez is off the mark for Police Union

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Squad

Newton Adebayo has company in his position

The competition arrived without a word said to him about it. Newton Adebayo keeps the shirt for now, at Police Union's convenience rather than his own.

Squad

Cohen Stander: 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.” Police Union have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Samson Obi

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Azriel Gonzalez is finding his feet at Police Union

The language is coming and there is somebody to talk to in the dressing room. A footballer who feels at home plays like one, and it never shows up in a scouting report.

Squad

Azriel Gonzalez out for 14 days

The medical room confirms 14 days on the sidelines for Azriel Gonzalez, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Boardroom

Wages eat 160% of everything Police Union earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Roscoe Pietersen

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Mahmoud Wahid gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match

Police Union share the spoils with Ittihad

A 2-2 draw with Ittihad leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Squad

Mehdi Ouaya 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.
