Crisis
Squad2 Nov 2026
Tempers go at B.93
Wilhelm Nilsson 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
Simen Kvia-Egeskog 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.
The dugout2 Nov 2026
The manager makes an example of Marcus Pedersen
“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.
Boardroom2 Nov 2026
Wages eat 113% of everything B.93 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.
Squad2 Nov 2026
A defender's mistake gets tidied up by somebody else; a goalkeeper's ends up in the net. He knew before the ball crossed the line, and so did everybody in the ground.
The dugout2 Nov 2026
“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑3, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Eirik Brekke beats them one at a time
Successful dribbles: 15. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.
Squad2 Nov 2026
Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Christoffer Henriksen has come out of that comparison in the side, and B.93 have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

Crisis
Match19 Oct 2026
B.93 sink to position 10
7 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
Aris Vaporakis: 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.” B.93 have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Simen Kvia-Egeskog 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.
Match17 Oct 2026
Hobro take the points off B.93
Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
Fitim Azemi 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.
Player ratings19 Oct 2026
Max Anderson was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.04. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
The manager’s verdict
“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 1‑2 Frederik Jensen left the room before anybody could ask which.
Player ratings19 Oct 2026
Successful dribbles: 12. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

Uneasy
Match26 Sep 2026
No end in sight to B.93's wait for a win
4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at B.93 has to find a result from somewhere.
Squad28 Sep 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 B.93 this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Simen Kvia-Egeskog 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.
The dugout28 Sep 2026
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Wilhelm Nilsson, and the manager let it.
Match26 Sep 2026
B.93 rescue it on 89 minutes
Behind, and beaten by any honest reading, until minute 89. AC Horsens had the points in their pocket and a corner of the ground still believed, which is generally when it happens.
Squad28 Sep 2026
B.93 are still strangers to each other
17 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.
Player ratings28 Sep 2026
Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.72 on the card, and the B.93 support went home talking about one name.
Match26 Sep 2026
1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.
The dugout28 Sep 2026
The view from the dugout
“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Frederik Jensen chose the glass-half-full version of 1‑1; the supporters left with the other one.

Market14 Sep 2026
“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.

Successful dribbles: 22. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.
Squad14 Sep 2026
A falling-out at B.93
Oliver Kjærgaard and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Squad14 Sep 2026
A row about effort at B.93
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Wilhelm Nilsson was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
Match12 Sep 2026
Lyngby take the points off B.93
Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
The dugout14 Sep 2026

“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.
The dugout14 Sep 2026
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 0‑2 defeat, delivered by Frederik Jensen to a room that had heard them before.
Squad14 Sep 2026
The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.
Market14 Sep 2026
B.93 and Max Anderson are talking past each other
“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.
