Happier times...

Manchester United legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has parted company with Cardiff City, following a torrid 30-game spell in charge of the South Walian outfit.
Solskjaer replaced Malky Mackay at Bluebirds boss less than nine months to go, but couldn't keep the club in the Premier League.
The club kept faith in the former United frontman, but he has endured a poor start to the Championship season, with Cardiff dropping to 17th following defeat to Middlesbrough on Tuesday evening.
A 2-0 defeat at Old Trafford was one of Solskjaer's 30 games in charge at Cardiff City. Of those, 25 were in the league and 15 ended in defeat.
Impressive spells in charge of United's reserve team and Molde left many tipping a bright future for Solskjaer in management, but the Norwegian will need to prove himself once again following a dismal stint under Vincent Tan at Cardiff.
