Molde are a club in the 22nd ranked league by UEFA Coefficiants. Next to Greek, Israel, Sweden, Bulgaria & Romania leagues.
What's interesting is that Molde actually never missed him, and had instant success after he left both times.
When Ole first left for Cardiff, 2013 season he finished 6th on 44 points (did win Norwegian Cup). The next season, Tor Ole Skullerud won them their first ever double (League + Norwegian Cup), setting a new league points record with 71 points, finishing 11 points ahead of Rosenborg. He lost 3 out of 30 matches, winning 22.
When Ole left for us in 2018, the 2018 season he finished 2nd on 58 points. In Erling Moe's first full season in 2019, he too also won the league with 68 points, undefeated at home, 14 points ahead of 2nd. He lost 4 out of 30, winning 21.
In Ole's previous 4 years, he failed to win the league or Norwegian Cup once (6th 52 pts/5th 45 pts/2nd 54 pts/2nd 58 pts).
He did have some success in his return at Molde. In his first season back in 2016, he finished top of his Europa League group ahead of Fenerbahce, Celtic & Ajax.
Bearing in mind Molde have rich owners and are considered somewhat a cheque book team in Norway. His stint there, especially the 2nd asks questions considering after that he came to us.
One consistent theme in his managerial history has been his side shipping a lot of goals. Over his entire reign with Molde, the side conceded 296 goals over 241 games. At Cardiff, 57 were let in over the 30 matches in charge.
When you're aware of his history, what we're seeing should come as no surprise to anyone. They foresee a lot of the deficiencies that have been ever present throughout his time here. It's likely why he's always been so safety first overall here.
He'll always be a legend. He's also done a good job here, but i hope he leaves whilst that's still the case.
