Update on Rune Vindheim
Rune Vindheim had a serious head injury in September 2016. He has now decided to tell about the accident and the long rehabilitation. The link is in Norwegian so I'll give a short summary of today's article in Bergens Tidende.
He fell down stairs, head first. There was serious bleeding and a bit of his skull was found on the floor beside him. He was "four minutes from death", he quotes from the hospital report.
Rehabilitation took eight months, but he was impatient and wanted a more challenging programme than the physiotherapist gave him. And after that he has exercised as a top level athlete, including three half-marathons and a lot of mountain trips, as the mountains in Bergen are very popular for hikers at all levels.
Now he wants to become manager again, and to get his driver's license back.

The club should have him over for the halftime draw.
