A 2-goal lead gone for Fjolnir
It is a specific kind of quiet, a ground watching a winning position dissolve. Keflavik kept coming because nothing stopped them, and Fjolnir will be asked about the last half hour all week.
Player ratings10 Aug 2026
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.84, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Árni Steinn Sigursteinsson 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.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Stjarnan have kept their man, and Fjolnir go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.
Market10 Aug 2026
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Ari Smarason has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

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

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Rurik Saevarsson has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Crisis
Match1 Aug 2026
Chastening afternoon for Fjolnir
A 0‑4 beating by KR was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.
Squad3 Aug 2026
“The easiest signature of my career.” Brynjar Gauti Guðjónsson and Fjolnir agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
Squad3 Aug 2026
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Fjolnir this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Transfer targets3 Aug 2026
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Leiknir have kept their man, and Fjolnir go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Words at Fjolnir training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Patryk Hryniewicki 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 dugout3 Aug 2026
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sölvi Sigmarsson, and the manager let it.
Boardroom3 Aug 2026
Nobody left the Fjolnir dressing room in a hurry
The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.
Market3 Aug 2026
“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.
Market3 Aug 2026
Still no offer on the table, and Árni Steinn Sigursteinsson’s deal keeps shrinking. In boardroom language, silence this long stops being an oversight and starts being an answer.
