Monday, October 26, 2009
Having promised earlier in the season to take off most of his clothes if Strømsgodset stayed up, Godset manager Ronny Deila came good on his word this Sunday. Tom Nordlie’s Fredrikstad on the other hand face a potentially perilous playoff..»crosslinked«Tweet

Tuesday, September 1, 2009
Ten points ahead with a game in hand and still undefeated, let’s face it, there is no way Rosenborg is going to throw this away. But the relegation-battle is shaping up to be pretty damned fierce, and after a very bad run Mad Martin finally got a big win as he continues to cling to [...]

Monday, August 17, 2009
Back in November 2007 when Martin Andresen was appointed to spearhead the Vålerenga-revolution, the stated ambition was to establish the club as one of the top sides in Norway by 2010 and to be the best team in Scandinavia by 2013. Let’s just reflect on that one for a moment, as another fairly abysmal performance [...]

Saturday, August 15, 2009
Hello!?! Can you hear us?! As the over-rated and over-hyped (though quite good, to be fair) English Premier League attempts yet again to overshadow every other sporting event on the planet, we here at NFN know we have to work hard to grab your precious attention. I mean, how can anyone possibly be expected to [...]

Friday, August 7, 2009
The dreaded wipeout of Norwegian teams from European competition was narrowly avoided, thanks to the evergreen Sigurd Rushfeldt and that rule that says teams that don’t make the Champions League can have a go in the Europa League…Tweet

Monday, August 3, 2009
In an eventful round of the Tippeliga, Molde gave Start a severe battering, Odd held Rosenborg, Bodø/Glimt picked up three invaluable points and Vålerenga lost yet again. In addition to all of this, Kent Bergesen has finally left Lyn..Tweet

Saturday, August 1, 2009
Having proved this week that they’re no good in Europe, the Norwegian clubs now return to the altogether more rewarding activity of playing amongst themselves. This weekend’s preview tackles seriously saucy subjects such as the increasingly comical situation at Lyn, Erik Hagen’s nickname, Polish builders and, well, the apocalypse..Tweet

Friday, July 31, 2009
After the first legs of various European ties this week none of the Norwegian clubs find themselves in particularly promising positions, with only Tromsø managing to record a win and all the other contenders suffering various degrees of defeat.Tweet

Monday, July 27, 2009
The chances of this season’s title race getting interesting look about as slim as Lyn’s chances of staying up, as Rosenborg’s mental strength and superior squad-depth yet again earn them a late win. Rivals Molde on the other hand missed chance after chance and ended up dropping points..Tweet

Saturday, July 25, 2009
It’s back! After a quick holiday the Tippeliga returns and so does the preview, tackling important issues like Kjetil Rekdal’s holiday and the possibility of Patrick Walker getting a tan.Tweet

Monday, July 13, 2009
As the curtains close on part one of the Tippeliga, the 18th round proved a highly appropriate ending: Rosenborg won without impressing anyone, Molde won and impressed everyone, Lyn shot themselves in the foot and the rest was all a bit random. Now, nothing would be more gratifying than to report that the bullies from [...]

Tuesday, July 7, 2009
Well, terrific if you like your games full of goals and incidents. No so much if you like, youknow, vaguely competent defenders. After a couple of pretty stale rounds the Tippeliga perked up a bit in round 17, with goals flying in at a fairly bonkers rate of 4,4 goals per game. Still, no matter [...]

Saturday, July 4, 2009
Really, this has to stop now, this wonderfully stereotype-busting weather currently enjoyed in most of the country makes it virtually impossible to get anything done.Tweet

Tuesday, June 30, 2009
This recent bout of hot weather has made Norwegians hit the beaches like dyslexic gangsta rappers, but like busses in the Stavanger-area the Tippeliga waits for no one, and so here is a quick roundup of the latest batch of games from the top tier of Norwegian football.Tweet

Sunday, June 28, 2009
A rare outbreak of sunshine in the Western bits of the country has left NFN’s Norwegian offices in a state of confusion and chaos, yet we struggle manfully on and here is an unusually pithy preview of this weekend’s action.Tweet
