Strange that the norweigan league has been left out of the "Top Leagues" definition

Yet the Uraguan league is in there!

I agree it does complicate things. I'd imagine he'd get on on the exception test but have no idea how long it takes to get that sanctioned via an FA Panel.

        The direction isn't changing, that will still be the plan (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:44:11
        
        yes, that would also make sense (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:13:29
        
        I know I'm being flippant, but I do get frustrated with any implication that it is going (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Nov 8, 11:06:50
