Norling is gone. Good man, good coach, bad fit for Brann.

Won the Allsvenskan with Malmö - got relegated with Brann. Guess the Tippeligaen is just a tougher league to manage in.

Mons Ivar Mjelde. So of course we had to sabotage and kick him out as soon as he got success.

BA is reporting that we are talking with a Norwegian to take over by Monday. Maybe.

As long as it isn't Aabrekk.

I'd like Nielsen over any of the free Norwegian candidates, so hope BA is wrong though.

My first guess was that Brann would go for Nielsen, but Aabrekk is a better choice (if you want to get relegated again).

Re: relegation. Last year Alta got relegated with 34 points. In 2013 Vard got relegated with the same amount, but in 2012 TUIL went down with 35 points. You're 21/22 points away from being secured a new season in OBOS, and I think Brann have the squad to do it. Unless you do a Leeds.

TV2 says it might be Lars Arne Nilsen. Know nothing about him except he won the cup while almost getting relegated from OBOS. Sounds like a good fit.

Agreed

Good first half, shame about conceding right at the end.

Hopefully this isn't another 5-5

According to history we will need about three more goals if we want all the three points home from Stavanger.

Not very likely. We will still need to learn to play two good halves. Not just one...

Just one of those days, I guess. Tromsø were good(in the second half) at breaking up our play, and we weren't good enough to outplay them.

..And yet we still should've won that.

Jesus, they have to make it exciting at the end don't they?

Getting Haugen on helped a lot, but I think getting rid of Huseklepp helped almost as much; he was absolutely dire.

Some candy for the schadenfreuders out there as another round of the cup rolls by. Hødd beat Aalesund, while Sandefjord and Strømsgodset are going into extra time vs Kongsvinger and Kvik Halden respectively.

Edit: Strømmen - Lillestrøm also going into extra time.

The cup is this thing that Rosenborg are doing to tire themselves out before playing Vålerenga.

Hey fellas, anyone have an idea how's Henrik Ojamaa been so far this season? There's a bit of a uproar here because he's not been called up to the EMNT. What's the general consensus amongst Sarpsborg fans?

There must be some Sarpsborgians somewhere surely? I've no idea, I just first heard of the team when I googled where Ojamaa plays when making that post.

The most refreshing thing was how they actually managed to stay in the lead without panicking and play confidently in defence. :toot:

IIRC Mr. Mexico is the closest thing we have to one on here.
Anyway S08 play in a poo poo leage and I haven't seen any of their matches but our largest newspaper has given him an average score of 4,38 over 8 matches if that helps (scale goes to 10, and the best player so far has a score of 6,27).
