Match21 Dec 2026
35 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.
Market21 Dec 2026
The bid was some way short and Bodo/Glimt did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.
Market21 Dec 2026
Racing Club pay $12.4M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.
The terraces21 Dec 2026
Bodo/Glimt sell a favourite for $12.4M
The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Kasper Høgh was one of the reasons people came, and $12.4M does not replace that by itself.
Market21 Dec 2026
Patrick Berg 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 Bodo/Glimt hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.
Market21 Dec 2026
The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.
Squad21 Dec 2026
Patrick Berg 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 Dec 2026
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Bodo/Glimt this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Squad21 Dec 2026
It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Boardroom30 Nov 2026
They will talk about this season in this town for a long time. The trophy comes home with the squad, and the route is already agreed.
Squad30 Nov 2026
Nikita Haikin decides it from twelve yards
4 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.
Match25 Nov 2026
Still nobody has beaten Bodo/Glimt
The unbeaten run reaches 14. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.
Player ratings30 Nov 2026
Successful dribbles: 31. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
Squad30 Nov 2026
Julian Faye Lund: 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.” Bodo/Glimt have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Words at Bodo/Glimt training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Patrick Berg 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.

Market2 Nov 2026
“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.
Match31 Oct 2026
Nobody wants to play Bodo/Glimt right now
3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.
Squad2 Nov 2026
Jens Petter Hauge 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.
Match31 Oct 2026
A 1‑0 win over Aalesund, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.
Squad2 Nov 2026
The award goes to Ola Brynhildsen, and nobody around here is inclined to argue with the choice.
Player ratings2 Nov 2026
Marked 7.88 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Bodo/Glimt had the best player on the pitch.
Squad2 Nov 2026
Alan Ferreyra 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.
Squad2 Nov 2026
Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Triumph
Match19 Sep 2026
A 2‑1 win over Viking, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.
Match19 Sep 2026
Nobody wants to play Bodo/Glimt right now
7 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.
Squad21 Sep 2026
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Bodo/Glimt will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.
Player ratings21 Sep 2026
Successful dribbles: 29. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Kasper Høgh 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 Bodo/Glimt this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Market21 Sep 2026
“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Bodo/Glimt heard it as anything else.

Jens Petter Hauge 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.
Boardroom21 Sep 2026
The paperwork is done long before the player is. Kristian Eriksen has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Bodo/Glimt have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.
Player ratings21 Sep 2026
Marked 8.26 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.
