Aslak Sira Myhre
Aslak Sira Myhre is a prominent figure in Norwegian football, serving as the leader of Korsvoll Fotball IL while also managing the Nasjonalbiblioteket. Formerly a member of the Rødt political party, he has been vocal about the ongoing debates surrounding the introduction of Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology in Norwegian football. Myhre argues that the focus on VAR is overshadowing more pressing issues within the sport, such as social inequality and infrastructure challenges. He perceives the intense opposition to VAR as a disproportionate influence of a small group of activists, which he believes threatens the democratic fabric of football governance in Norway.
