Dag-Eilev Fagermo receives harsh criticism from the central athletes ‘organization (NISO), after the Vålerenga coach said NISO supported the VIF players’ protest against training five times a week at a position of 25 percent.
After a meeting in early April between CEO Erik Espeseth, sports leader Jørgen Ingebrigtsen, head coach Dag-Eilev Fagermo and a selection of Vålerenga players representing the entire team, the players said they should not exercise five times a week at the same time they were fired. 75 percent.
Fagermo shouldn’t have had an impact for more than three practice sessions. for TV2 He says, among other things, that “it’s NISO standing here, vettu”, and claims that the players would have accepted the amount of training if it wasn’t for NISO.
– of course. Because they know that they live competing and winning soccer games. In addition, Vålerenga was four points from relegation last year. The players have even admitted to me that they want to train harder and harder than they have. If you object … it goes without saying that it becomes contradictory, Fagermo told TV2.
Fagermo was introduced as Vålerena’s coach on January 31 of this year:

It makes NISO leader and former soccer player Joachim Walltin react.
– That’s not true, he’s totally wrong. There are no clubs that we have interfered with without the players contacting us. There are no players who will not train. It is your club that has taken the step to leave, and if you are not satisfied, you should direct it to your own club. Obviously having trouble abiding by workplace rules, Walltin tells VG.
He replies that Fagermo criticizes the organization when it is the club that has fired.
– We understand that you want to train as much as possible, but direct the aggression against NISO and the players will be very wrong. This is the only example we know of where a coach has pushed in this way. It is unfinished and has put players in a very difficult situation, says the NISO manager.

At the meeting where the amount of training was discussed, according to various sources VG has been in contact with, it must have been a “violent” meeting with “high temperature.” Fagermo’s proposal for five workouts a week should have met resistance from the player pool.
I have to laugh. It is the only charity I know of that does not want people to be in better shape. Which also brings sleep and rest as work, he says in the direction of NISO.
– So, I wonder about people who are artisans, like when they come home from work if they have it in the collective agreement. That when you want to relax and sleep, do you get paid for it? Fagermo said “with a smart smile.”
– Nasty breaking the rules
Walltin believes that the claim that they don’t want people to be in better shape falls out of their own irrationality.
– Restitution and rest are part of being a superior athlete. We are an industry where it is very important to stay in good shape, and rest is part of it. These are not players who do not train. It is the club that has chosen to leave. Then the Labor Inspectorate says you have imposed a work exemption, and players find it awkward to break the rules.

He believes it is obviously wrong to train five times a week in a 25 percent position.
– The problem was that many people suddenly got very creative in calculating work hours and started counting hours like it was an office job. Groups of players at various clubs were highly sparked by it. This is a club that first laid off 100 percent and then dropped to 75 percent. But when you have to attend Monday through Friday and have five sessions, it’s obviously a mismatch, “says Walltin and continues:
– If I have to leave my employees 80 percent, there is one day a week. Players practice 8-10 regular sessions per week. If they had five sessions and they showed up 25 percent Monday through Friday, then you need to check how you calculate things.
He notes that NISO does everything in consultation with the players.
VG has repeatedly tried to contact Fagermo for a comment, but has failed. VG spoke to VIF Sports Director Jørgen Ingebrigtsen on Sunday morning. He was confronted with the punishment, but says that Fagermo must answer it himself.
! The Vålerenga players are now out of layoffs, and have been granted permission until early May, according to management Friday night. They receive full payment during the vacation weeks.
