football
coach. He has managed several top Norwegian football teams.

Playing career

Nordlie was not a footballer himself, but he did play for the national water polo team.

He has his education from the Norwegian School of Sport Sciences.[1]

Managing career

Nordlie is a household name in Norway, having managed several top-flight teams. He is known for introducing the concept kontrollert sinnsyk, i.e. "controlledly insane".[2]

In 1998, he led

Kniksen award
as (Head) Coach of the Year.

However, in 2006 Start had a poor opening to the season, and on 14 July 2006, Nordlie was fired. After working in

TV 2 for a short period, Nordlie signed as the new manager of Viking on 14 September for the rest of the 2006 season, saving Viking from being relegated to the 1. divisjon, when Viking beat Brann
5–0 in the last match of the 2006-season.

After

Kongsvinger, which he led with success until he was hired by Fredrikstad in August 2009. He had some months at the club who were battling against relegation when he arrived. By the end of the season Fredrikstad were relegated, after being beaten by local rivals Sarpsborg 08
in the play-offs. Nordlie left a few months after the relegation.

Nordlie returned to Kongsvinger in September 2011, after Per Brogeland was fired, to save the club from relegation to the Second Division. The club was 11th, two points ahead of the relegation zone when Nordlie arrived,[5] and finished the season as the 7th best team in the 1. divisjon. He originally joined Kongsvinger on a short-term contract, but decided to stay at the club for another year,[6] before he left Kongsvinger after the 2012 season.[7]

Nordlie managed Avaldsnes women's team from 2014 until his dismissal on 6 October 2015 by the board[8] after it was presented with evidence that he had stalked and sexually harassed one of his players, Hólmfríður Magnúsdóttir.[9][10][11][12][13][14] At the time of his departure the team was in second place in the Toppserien with four matches to go and had reached the Norwegian Cup finals.[15][16]

In the final stages of the 2019 season, Nordlie and Skeid agreed to terminate his contract to let him re-join Lillestrøm and lead the team through two matches in the relegation play-offs.[17] Lillestrøm lost the play-offs on the away goals rule and were relegated to the second tier after a 5–5 draw on aggregate against Nordlie's former club Start.
