Meanwhile, the race for medals is competitive and down at the bottom of the table is it the end of the line for Odd and Lillestrøm? The Allsvenskan season comes to a close this Sunday in Sweden and there are still some spots to decide, including the relegation playoff position. Could IFK Göteborg be vulnerable ahead of a tough trip to Mjällby?

It is good to be back and thanks to your loyal supporters for sticking with us!

NFP is back! Here we have a special interview with Norwegian TV presenter Jon Hartvig Børrestad. We hear from a man at the heart of the Eliteserien action in his role for TV2 as he opens up to some very interesting insights to Steve. 

How has Norwegian football evolved in recent years and what sort of level is the Eliteserien at now? We talk about the season so far, who has been surprising and who will go on to win the gold medal? Euro 2024 is starting soon but Norway won’t be present. What has been going wrong with the Norwegian national team and is there a solution? Could we be on the verge of a golden generation for players, manager and clubs in Norway as the coefficient has skyrocketed in recent years! We thank Jon for his time and for a fantastic interview.

Our man Jonathan Fadugba was out in Gothenburg in person to interview the current IFK Göteborg manager Jens Berthel Askou. Previously a guest on NFP whilst managing in the Faroe Islands, the former Norwich City player sits down with Jonathan for an in-depth interview at his office in Kamratgarden. Amongst the discussion they talk about footballing philosophy, managing expectations and what is required to turn around the fortunes at this giant of a club?
