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

[VILLA MOLE]

If OGS doesnt end up being the Villa manager i cant see him being the molde manager for much longer. just got this of there offical website

Røkke and Aker ASA has for years been Molde Football Club's most important and largest partner in several areas. Molde FK are eternally grateful for the contribution and support Røkke, his family and Aker ASA has shown us over the years. Molde Football Club regrets that Aker ASA has decided to reduce its involvement as a result of our Manager's actions. We confirm Røkke and Aker ASA's version of events and why Aker ASA has decided to reduce their contributions.

feel bad now , we must have him as manager now after causing all this

If the club/sponsor is pulling out all funding then surely Solskjaer could walk (ala MON) meaning we don't have to pay compensation.

Press conference is at 12:30 (11:30 Yam Yam Time)

Solskjaer is meeting with the chairman and director. It is expected Solskjaer will take charge of Molde's trainig session today.

We should not discount the fact that Molde are a very wealthy club backed with scandinavian aristocrats money.   In fact it has been immortalized in song.   Molde Old Dough.

First bit of vinyl I ever bought that Brian . Great lyrics  ;-)

OGS to hold the press conf. I would guess it's just to clarify what he said last night about no formal talks.

[Trinitymiddle]

You dont stop backing a club because a manager decides to talk to another club. There are obviously other agendas going on here.

Also didnt Molde release a statement saying they had given OGS permission to speak to us?

Finally, last year we refused to speak to Mark Hughes due to the way he left Fulham. If OGS spoke to us without permission (according to Rokke), does this mean we wont be employing OGS?

[Percy McCarthy]

The other side to this financial withdrawal enabling OGS to walk and cost us nothing, is that if it is thought we have caused this, it could add massively to the compo bill we might face.

EDIT: shit sentence, sorry.

Good grief!!

But didn't they give us permission to speak to him ?

[PeterWithe]

Any compensation would be based on his contract, not unforseen events like their sponsor pulling the plug.

[Monty]

The thing is, Rokke has previous. Molde looks like such a nice club, with OGS and the scenery and all, but this guy Rokke, who went to jail for a casual bit of boat-ownership fraud back in 2005, is a nasty piece of work with previous. If I were OGS, I would want out of there pretty sharpish.

[Percy McCarthy]

I realise that, but my worry is that perhaps they would try to set a precedent, and the withdrawal of funding is being used in order to manipulate cause for higher demands.

EDIT: my response is to PW's post.

To many ITK with to much info ie flight schedules letting everyone know, could work against us, all this eagerness to know what's happening.

Another Norwegian footballer has tweeted that the Molde players have been told this is OGS last game in charge.

The sponsors are blackmailing him? Fuck Them Ole, jump ship ASAP.
