Match

No end in sight to Odd's wait for a win

9 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Odd has to find a result from somewhere.

Market

Only the photograph left for Zakaria Mugeese

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Zakaria Mugeese will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Odd the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

A falling-out at Odd

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

Squad

The step up is real for Storm Øines

At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Match

A bad afternoon for Odd against Sandefjord

0‑2 to Sandefjord, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Villads Rasmussen 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 dugout

The manager makes an example of Daniel Söderberg

“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 dugout

Vegard Hauge faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Vegard Hauge after 0‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

The dugout

Josef Baccay 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.

Match

Nowhere to hide for Odd

1‑4 against Bodo/Glimt, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Match

No end in sight to Odd's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Odd has to find a result from somewhere.

Market

Zakaria Mugeese is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Odd is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Boardroom

Josef Baccay has agreed to leave Odd for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Squad

Words exchanged at Odd

Thomas Grøgaard and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Words at Odd training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Josef Baccay 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.

The dugout

Daniel Söderberg 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.

Boardroom

Doors closed at Odd

The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.

The dugout

Vegard Hauge: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑4, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.
