Joomla 3 - Different article order on different pages

I am using Joomla 3.4.4 and I am displaying multiple articles by Category Blog menu item. I have 3 of these menu items and I need them to display the same articles, but each in different specific order.

Do you have any idea how to accomplish this?

As I know, in Joomla (<= 3.4), the custom ordering of articles is set globally, beyond of categories. In the database, we can see that the content table (articles) contains independent catid and ordering fields, and there is no trace of a table that could implement an association with fields like : catid | contenid | ordering

Maybe :

If not, you should consider developing an extension adding order per category with a content-categories-ordering association table... Maybe with an extension like Fabrik you could manage this easier, without having to develop a full Joomla extension.
