A few things…
No links this time, just a coupla semi-goodies, a bit of good news and a Danish-American horn toot. It's just about that time again, so let's unpack those ol' thumbs up and down for summer...

Strapped with Gatt
Molde FK winger Josh Gatt bagged his third of the young season on 26 minutes and it stood up as winner in a 2-0 defeat of Sandnes. We'll get that clip up ASAP...- Greg Seltzer
Gatt-chya again (updated)
Word on the street is that one Josh Gatt got himself a goal and an assist in Molde's 5-0 blowout of Stabaek. Ricardo Clark has the misfortune of being on the wrong side of that scoreline.

Loose End Tying
Some days ago, I discussed an American keeper in talks with Stabæk. I never did get privy to the player's name, but I can now tell you there will be no deal for some reason. As is, there's not much more to say, but I did not just want to leave that ha...
The Rico Act (updated)
It seems good ol' Stabæk didn't even need to see Ricardo Clark perform against Valencia tonight. The U.S. midfielder has completed a loan move there from Eintracht Frankfurt until the end of July. Everything is agreed and signed every which way, so I'...
