Match

Pari Nizhniy Novgorod sink to position 16

5 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Squad

Vadim Lukjanov says Pari Nizhniy Novgorod 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.

Match

No end in sight to Pari Nizhniy Novgorod's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Pari Nizhniy Novgorod has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

Vyacheslav Grulev 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

Pari Nizhniy Novgorod and Krylya Sovetov 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.

Market

Luka Vešner Tičić linked with a move away

The name of Luka Vešner Tičić keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Pari Nizhniy Novgorod say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Luka Vešner Tičić out for 15 days

The medical room confirms 15 days on the sidelines for Luka Vešner Tičić, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Match

Spartak Moscow take the points off Pari Nizhniy Novgorod

Beaten 2-4, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

Nikita Medvedev 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.

The terraces

The spotlight tightens on Nikita Medvedev

Every touch is being weighed now, in print and everywhere else. Some players grow into that and some are quietly ruined by it, and nobody knows which in advance.

Squad

4 past Nikita Medvedev

Whether it was the goalkeeper or the ten in front of him is the argument that will fill every conversation in town this week. 5 saves does not settle it either way.

Squad

Vyacheslav Grulev is off the mark for Pari Nizhniy Novgorod

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

Market

Pari Nizhniy Novgorod turn down Akhmat Grozny for Juan Camilo Castillo

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

Market

Pari Nizhniy Novgorod sell Sven Karič for $1.1M

Sven Karič has left for Lokomotiv Moscow in a $1.1M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Vyacheslav Grulev 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

Pari Nizhniy Novgorod draw a blank against Baltika

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Baltika defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Market

Luka Vešner Tičić linked with a move away

The name of Luka Vešner Tičić keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Pari Nizhniy Novgorod say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Renaldo Cephas 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.
