!Making the Norwegian Premier League the best in the world!

http://0.tqn.com/d/goscandinavia/1/0/F/-/-/-/norway-flag.gif

So basically I was getting bored of FM 2013 and I needed a new challenge so I decided I would try and make a average league the best in the world, the country I decided to manage in was Norway. This challenge is not about how my team performs but how the League performs, so where is the Norwegian Premier League currently in the world:

As you can see it is currently 2 and a half star, so 2 stars behind the current top league the English Premier League. We currently have the same reputation as many leagues, including the Swedish Top League and the npower league 1, so it's going to be tough and take a long time to be the best league in the world.
Basic Preview of the League:
The Tippeligaen was founded in 1937 and has its name because of their main sponsor, Norsk Tipping, which is the one and only allowed sports betting company in Norway. The league has only been professional for the last 21 years.
The Football league of Norway differs from the ordinary league system in Europe, as it started 15th of March, and ends in the middle of November 2013. Before we get the final result of Tippeligaen 2013, the 16 clubs will play 30 matches each (league of 30 rounds). The final round will be played 10. November 2013. Rounds played during the weekends are broken up into one game on Saturdays, six games on Sundays and one game on Mondays. Midweek rounds are broken up into six games on Wednesdays and one game on Thursdays.
Rosenborg Ballklubb aka RBK is the most championships of the Norwegian Premier League, 22 championships in total, who recorded 13 championships between 1992 and 2005. The second team is Fredrikstad Fotball Klubb, with 9 wins. Fredrikstad is now located in the first division Adeccoligaen. Viking is the second best club, who plays in the Tippeligaen today, but are ranked third behind Fredrikstad on the overall Championship ranking.

So which club will I manage?
The team I will manage is Valerenga, nicknamed Enga, I chose this team as they are the only club in the NPL (Norwegian Premier League) that are based in Oslo, the Capital of Norway.

Not the greatest transfer budget but a decent wage budget which means I should be able to bring in a couple of players capeable of doing a job in the NPL and possibly in Europe

Being norwegian this will be pretty exciting to follow. Good luck mate. I've reached 2030 trying to do the same thing, and in my experience the biggest problem is the poor quality of norwegian regens. Anyways, good luck and I will be following this!
