Match

The small margins put Breidablik out

Out, 0‑4 to Vikingur, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

Market

Viktor Örn Margeirsson hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Breidablik can pretend not to have heard.

The terraces

A cup embarrassment at Vikingur follows Breidablik home

0-4. Going out of a cup is one afternoon; going out like that is a week of phone-ins, and the manager will hear every one of them.

Player ratings

Vintage Andri Rafn Yeoman — 8.03

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.03, and nobody on the pitch better.

Player ratings

Óli Valur Ómarsson was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 23. 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.

Transfer targets

Too dear: Breidablik walk away from Allan Purisevic

$19.0K was the most the club would pay and FH were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Match

Andri Rafn Yeoman sends Breidablik past KR

It finished 2‑1, and it was Andri Rafn Yeoman’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Breidablik.

Squad

Words exchanged at Breidablik

Ermal Ymeri 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Kristinn Jónsson

“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 terraces

A $190.0K sale, and a town that did not want it

Davíð Ingvarsson has gone, the accounts have $190.0K in them, and the supporters have the feeling of having been sold something themselves. Good business and a good decision are not always the same thing.

Transfer targets

Fee done, terms next for Jón Hrafn Barkarson

Breidablik and Stjarnan have settled on $86.0K. The rest belongs to the player and his agent, and a supporter who has watched one of these before knows not to buy the shirt yet.

Player ratings

A defender's goal wins it for Breidablik — 7.84

1 for Viktor Örn Margeirsson, marked 7.84, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Boardroom

Breidablik close the window on a squad of their own making

18 in and 2 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Boardroom

Davíð Ingvarsson has agreed to leave Breidablik 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.

Transfer targets

Breidablik bid $12.0K for Allan Purisevic

The offer went to FH this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Market

Business is business: Davíð Ingvarsson goes

Stjarnan paid $190.0K and Breidablik took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad

A falling-out at Breidablik

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

Market

A long bet from Breidablik on Daði Berg Jónsson

He is 20, and nobody at Breidablik signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Market

Breidablik say no — this time

The offer from Keflavik for Davíð Ingvarsson was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Player ratings

Viktor Karl Einarsson goes up and wins it — 7.26

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.26 for the rest of it.

Squad

Viktor Karl Einarsson signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Viktor Karl Einarsson commits to Breidablik for another 4 years.

Squad

A row about effort at Breidablik

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

Transfer targets

Door shut on Žan-Luk Leban

Breidablik asked and NK Celje said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match

Breidablik come up short against Valur

Valur left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Tempers go at Breidablik

Ermal Ymeri 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.

The dugout

No hiding place for Anton Logi Lúðvíksson

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

Market

One of our own: Sverrir Thorsteinsson joins the Breidablik first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Sverrir Thorsteinsson is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Squad

10 saves: Anton Ari Einarsson was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 10 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Squad

17 seasons of Andri Rafn Yeoman

310 appearances across 17 seasons in these colours. Careers like that are not built any more, and Breidablik know what they have.

Player ratings

Both of them Kristófer Ingi Kristinsson's — 8.55

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.55, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad

A move Ermal Ymeri would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Ermal Ymeri is living that version at Breidablik, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad

Kristinn Jónsson signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Kristinn Jónsson commits to Breidablik for another 2 years.

Match

Breidablik find a way past Vikingur

Vikingur made Breidablik work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market

IA watching Gabríel Snær Hallsson

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Breidablik have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market

Still no ink between Breidablik and Kristinn Jónsson

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Breidablik, another week without a signature from Kristinn Jónsson.

Market

The clock runs on Anton Ari Einarsson's contract

36 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

In brief
