Would you be happy with Ole Gunnar Solskjær? Now with added poll.

[midian]

Ive been at work all day and no access to a comp can somebody just update the basics on what happening with OGS?

[damon loves JT]

Yes. If I were the editor of a Norwegian paper it would be months before I stopped running stories like: `Fucking Hell! Beer is So Expensive!'

[silhillvilla]

I've got a horrible feeling we're going to end up with egg on our faces & Martinez in the chair

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

I am amazed at how much coverage this is getting in the Norwegian media.

Is OGS some kind of national megastar over there?

Well, yes. And they have a very energetic popular press, and a country where not much happens.

A certain Mr Breivik would beg to differ.

I still don't think would be a terrible outcome.

Same here.  I can understand everyones excitement but I think we shouldnt dismiss other suitable candidates.

According to VG (Norwegian newspaper) Ole arrived in Oslo with his wife and his agent.

News Reporter from Norway on SSN earlier, apparently press conference to take place later.

Guys, not signing Solskjær is not the be all and end all.  Lambert is just as good a candidate imo.

According to SSN we haven't even approached him

Oh really !

Standards really are slipping in murdoch towers. As if paul would tell sky everything, or nowrich would admit their manager was interested in another job.

As should  be the case discretion is in the best interests of all concerned until a job offer is actually made , unless you are dave whelan.

If paul spoke to villa and was overlooked no- one would be the wiser, if it was made public then both manager and club would face problems as a result.

[Chris_Jephcott]

Oh excellent! Another press conference.

It's either that he's staying, or he's handed in his resignation.

[silhillvilla]

They like their press conferences over there don't they

[VillaAlways]

I'm feeling worried I've got a horrid feeling he's staying

[Hopadop]

More nordic monopthongs than you can shæke a stick at, but no John Blackwell to be seen.

I hope he makes an appearance. This is his time.

[D.boy]

We may already have agreed the compo and Rokke is just going to rant at him for a while before he leaves?

Or do that thing in `The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo' where the villain ties the hero up and attaches him by the neck to a cable winch

You git, I haven't watched that or read the book and now you've gone and spoilt it. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your groin.

Nice to see some common sense. If he  comes OK if not  Paul Lambert will be there.

Sorry, I thought I was the last person in the world not to have read it. I tried, but I couldn't get into the idea of a heroic journalist, for some reason.
