Tippeligaen, round 25: Media fervently hopes for actual excitement about the gold, young talented kid plays without a worry in the world.
As the battle for the may-be-important fourth place rages on, the mainstream media still prove to be a bunch of clueless cowards, preferring to seek out pretend drama that may or may not become real at some point in the future. NFN will thus be the only provider of the real drama RIGHT NOW, and [...]

Tuesday, March 30, 2010
The whole Tippeliga-thing isn’t really working out so far for Hønefoss who were thumped 6-0 at Åråsen. Elsewhere Kongsvinger are also pointless after the first three, pre-season favorites Rosenborg, Molde, Viking and Stabæk all dropped points and there were more peculiar pleasantries from Kjetil Rekdal..»crosslinked«Tweet

Tuesday, March 16, 2010
“Ac Milan have an old squad”. “Arsenal play pretty football”. “Steffen Iversen is a bit fat”. The footballing world is full of these tired, old, yet inescapably accurate clichés. “Rosenborg won in spite of not playing all that well” is well on it’s way towards becoming one of them.Tweet

Wednesday, January 27, 2010
Aalesunds Fk midfielder Peter Orry Larsen is the latest Norwegian to have been invited on trial with English champions Manchester United. The 20 year old is no stranger to United, as he was on trial at the club at a younger age alongside Magnus Eikrem, who was signed by United from Molde in the summer [...]

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..Tweet

Thursday, September 24, 2009
Rosenborg could have mathematically secured their 2009 Tippeliga title with a remarkable five games to spare if they had beaten Tromsø last night. But TIL-keeper Sead Ramovic was eager to show after this weekend’s shenanigans that he isn’t just a hopelessly immature overpaid dimwit, he is in fact a hopelessly immature overpaid dimwit who on [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
Continue reading...Norwegian cup finally gets interesting
Monday, August 10, 2009
Having given the Norwegian cup a deservedly wide berth so far due to the relentless tedium of the thing, the quarter finals were so jam-packed with incident that NFN can no longer ignore it. Like a kind of weird uncle in the Norwegian footballing family, the 2009 Norwegian cup has gone from annoyingly dull to [...]

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

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

Friday, July 17, 2009
When a nation’s domestic football league loses one of it’s biggest attractions the rational emotional response is probably resignation, but not so much in Manchester United-loving Norway. As the initial shock wore off, the overriding emotion that emerged appeares to be somewhere between pride and elation. “It must be said to be the biggest transfer [...]

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 [...]
Continue reading...The Tippeliga preview that really needs a vacation
Sunday, July 12, 2009
You heard me. And after a fairly hectic summer-period one imagines quite a few of the Tippeliga players could do with a rest as well, which is why it’s so convenient that after this weekend the Tippeliga takes a two week holiday. Before that though there is a potentially cracking round of matches to be [...]
