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

I can imagine how the meeting/meal may have gone with Rokke, OGS and their wives...following a pleasant evening discussing transfer budgets and targets for their forthcoming CL campaign, a quick slideshow comparing the picturesque sights of Birmingham and Kristiansund...you cant blame anyone for wanting a comfortable peaceful life in a beautiful area compared to what they'd have here.

Ok, it's a letdown but this time last week he was no where near being considered.

We look a bit silly and other Managers might assume not to be 1st choice but in the catalogue of Randy/Faulkner cock ups I think this is one that isn't really their fault.

Forget about him and move on, we've no option.

Lambert or Van Gaal please.

Hmm the fjords of Norway, or the Birmingham to Fazeley canal?

Headline in the Norweigian paper TK. "Solskjaer wont confirm Villa No."

This is from when he was quizzed by journos when his plane landed back in Kristiansunds last night.

The plot thickens.

Where has it actually been confirmed that AVFC PR Rep has said that OGS is off the table? I've only seen some norwegian papers saying that they got that from Doogers (or what is his name) and even Birmingham Mail article didn't have "from AVFC".

What the eck is going on?

[pbavfckuwait]

Damned if they do damned if they don't.
The club at least by showing an interest in OGS,  have shown they are looking at more than the obvious contenders. Just maybe whoever they are turning to for advice, is actually giving them some exciting alternatives, so if it is not to be OGS, lets hope for some other out of the box , young and vibrant manager, their words not ours.

It all comes from Doogan quote. Mail got it first, everyone else got it from the Mail.

Who is this Doogan person?

[Reuben]

How come Greg's post count is only 10?

[Jarpie]

Who is this Doogan person?

Could have Kendrick got it horribly wrong?

[Matt Collins]

I can't believe I'm doing this for the second summer running!

[ozzjim]

It came from Villa press officer. We can hope for a mad change of heart, or his wife seeing him restless at night and telling him to go, or Rokke taking the frighteners off him.
