On a personal level I feel sorry for him, and can't imagine what it feels like to have everything you've worked for taken away over something entirely within your control. I hope he can move on with his life and be happy in whatever he does in the future.
He’s just been named on the Referee list for the 2020 PostNord-ligaen season (the third tier of football in Norway) - when most officials would have to start in the 7th or 8th Divisions (the equivalent of local Parks Football).
He will be a good asset for the Norwegian FA as he’s already been going around giving talks at the various County Refereeing Conventions the winter just gone and talking to younger officials in aid to their development (he made several visits to the Norway Cup in the summer to do this - as well as meeting the English Referee cohort that go there every year) - seems as if he’s adjusted to life in Norway very well
Perhaps Norway will be the place where he finds redemption. I hope so.
