Market15 Mar 2027

Lauder 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 The request is on a desk at Spaeri, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad15 Mar 2027

Jhonatan Ribeiro wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Spaeri can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad15 Mar 2027

A falling-out at Spaeri

Guram Kashia and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad15 Mar 2027

A row about effort at Spaeri

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Zurab Chavchanidze was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match13 Mar 2027

3 matches without a goal for Spaeri

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 3 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Squad15 Mar 2027

400 appearances for Guram Kashia

400 games in these colours. Service of that kind gets rarer every season, and the crowd knows it.

Player ratings15 Mar 2027

Guilherme Beléa was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 16. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

The dugout15 Mar 2027

Spaeri pick somebody else ahead of Matheus Guarujá

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

The dugout15 Mar 2027

Vakhtang Arveladze on the point

“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Vakhtang Arveladze after the 0‑0 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad1 Mar 2027

Home is on Bruno Oliveira's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Spaeri are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Squad1 Mar 2027

Tempers go at Spaeri

Guram Kashia 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.

Squad1 Mar 2027

A row about effort at Spaeri

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Isac Miller was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Boardroom1 Mar 2027

Spaeri counting the cost

The accounts make uncomfortable reading. Wages first and ambition second is the order of business at Spaeri now.

Market1 Mar 2027

Talks stall between Spaeri and Eduardo

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad1 Mar 2027

Lukas De Clerck is no longer first choice

The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Lukas De Clerck has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

Looking ahead1 Mar 2027

A reunion for Tamaz Tsetskhladze

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Samtredia in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

The dugout1 Mar 2027

Eduardo 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.

Market1 Mar 2027

Tornike Askurava placed on the list

Spaeri have made Tornike Askurava available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.
