Match

Zabbar St. Patrick run riot against Gzira United

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings

A brace, and Pedro Cejas takes the afternoon — 8.56

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Pedro Cejas provided it, and the 8.56 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Match

Nobody wants to play Zabbar St. Patrick right now

4 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.

Squad

A row about effort at Zabbar St. Patrick

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

The dugout

No hiding place for Bjarki Arnaldarson

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Bjarki Arnaldarson, and the manager let it.

Squad

Number 50 for Pedro Cejas

50 goals for this club, and somewhere in the stand there is a person who can still tell you where they were for most of them.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Miro Soldo

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Too much change too quickly at Zabbar St. Patrick

9 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Squad

A falling-out at Zabbar St. Patrick

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

Squad

Zabbar St. Patrick lose Miloš Jovičić

23 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Match

A bad afternoon for Zabbar St. Patrick against Birkirkara

1‑3 to Birkirkara, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

A row about effort at Zabbar St. Patrick

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

The dugout

No hiding place for Bruno Figueiredo

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Bruno Figueiredo, and the manager let it.

Squad

Jake Micallef signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Jake Micallef and Zabbar St. Patrick agree another 3 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Zabbar St. Patrick

Timothy Abiodun Eviparker 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.

Loan watch

Im Young-Won counts the days

“I watch every Zabbar St. Patrick game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Marsa runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

The dugout

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 1‑3 defeat, delivered by Neville Zammit to a room that had heard them before.

The dugout

Jake Micallef does not fit this one

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.
