![]() Players are begging to come on Perminov puts his hand up, I tell him to shut up and get back to work (he cleans the toilets for 100 Rubles a day since he lost his place in first team, it’s a bargain, he asked for 300 a day and some bread for his family, but I was able to talk him down). There’s nothing between the two sides (Shinnik and Smolensk, not Tom Tomsk and these lot) from what I can tell on the radio, Smolensk defender Dymarchuk who suffered so severely against us, is having the game of his life.Īt half-time I ask Paiva if he wants a rest and we can listen to the Shinnik game together, he’s not sure but we agree he can come off on the hour. We light up cigars in the dugout and listen to the goings-on in Smolensk. By the 10 th minute Perm are down to 10 men and Captain Alex Sharov slides the ball home to double our lead. Within 30 seconds we’re 1-0 up through Paiva, thanks to a gracious ball from Sergey Shatokhin. We give the Amkar boys a Siberian welcome that they won’t forget in a hurry. Then I realise that on loan right-back Sleptsov is owned by Amkar Perm so I quickly swap him out with Dmitry Sharpilo. I stick with the boys that have delivered a run of 14 games without a defeat. Shinnik have the enviable task of travelling to Smolensk and taking on 9 th place Kristall Smolensk who are coming off a humbling 2-0 defeat to Kuban Krasnodar.Īmkar send out a 442, with 5 members of the starting XI called Alex and 2 called Oleg. We hold a questionable lead over Shinnik in what the Russian FA have confirmed is down to goals scored. Amkar have a wonderful stadium with all the mod cons, Trud is falling apart at the grand old age of 44.īut today is all about keeping ahead in the title race. I’m mildly embarrassed as they turn up to our stadium, which is named ‘Trud’, however some vandals have experimented with the anagrammed potential of the word and we’re yet to order a new sign. How did we get here?Īmkar Perm have absolutely nothing to play for, nothing but wages, bonuses and self-promotion. I’ve told him about this, but I still remain deathly silent. I don’t answer and he continues to piss, before waggling his genitals efficiently and strolling out the bathroom without washing his hands. I stare blankly in the mirror whilst Shatokhin asks me if everything is OK. ![]()
