Quoting LoneRanger44 from another thread:
"Staff you are correct as I told annis and Carl about this back in February, all I can say is oGS and his agent formed a company that transfers we paid too and ollie is being investigated regarding transfers when he was manager of molde this was going on. But then he didn't to take his name off as one of the directors so it wouldn't be found out but he was getting a cut on all the players that he signed through his agent. Mats Møller Dæhli Transfer molde haven't received a single penny they said they paid Manchester United £2m out of the release clause - so we're has the money gone as Cardiff thought they had paid molde"
So, put into clear words, this is what LoneRanger is claiming in his post:
1. Solskjaer and his agent Solbakken formed a company which was used for transfers when Solskjaer was the manager of Molde, but then he went out of the company to hide that he was getting a cut of the transfer money.
The company he is referring to is Dynamic Sollutions, which Solskjaer and Solbakken established in 2000 when Solsjaer was playing for Manchester United. Solskjaer sold himself out of this company in 2008 when he became manager for Manchester United´s development team. So, he
WAS NOT part of this company when we was in Molde, like you say.
The reason why he sold himself out of Dynamic Sollutions, is obviously that you cannot sit on both sides of the table when signing players. The bounds between Solbakken and Solskjaer is very close, however, and Solbakken was indeed representing all the Norwegian players who came to Cardiff. The tight bounds between Solbakken and Solskjaer has been questioned before, and if Solskjaer bought the players just to do his pale a favour - not because they were needed in Cardiff - we are entering a gray-zone that could be described as corruption. I don´t know what the investigation is about, but there is yet to be proved - if there actually are such claims - that Solkjaer himself have had any economical benefits from the transfers.
LoneRanger claims this to be the case, and in his private message to me he says he has a contact in Norway - a reporter who has been following the paper trail between Solskjaer and Solbakken for years. But just ask yourself: if there were such suspicions, do you really think Tan would say goodbye in the friendly manners he did? We will have to wait and see what comes out of this, but the whole story seems a bit strange to me.
2. Molde has not receive a penny from the transfer of Mads Moller Daehli.
The truth seems to be that Molde got a bit more than 1 million pounds from the transfer.
Cardiff bought Daehli for around 3 million pounds from Molde. From this, 50 % went to Manchester United, which they received in January this year. Some of the money went to Daehli´s former clubs + some solidarity money, and when all expenses with the transfer were covered, Molde was then left with a bit more than 1 million pounds. It´s all described in detail here:

It could though, that parts of the payment from this transfer is what the investigation is about, but unlike LoneRanger, I don´t claim to be ITK, and as far as I´m concern, no one is guilty without any proves. LoneRanger seems to disagree on this.
