[table_note_LØR0.44237201541773-2] Lørenskog survived as the best tenth-place team, since Stålkameratene was removed.^[1]

[table_hth_VED0.68658773726159-3] It seems unlikely that Vedavåg and Sola would have an identical record (including goals) but this is how it is printed in the source.

[table_note_ÅND0.89573101834195-4] Åndalsnes survived as the second best tenth-place team, since Narvik/Nor was disestablished.^[1]

[table_note_STÅ0.66617950688404-5] Stålkameratene was forcibly relegated for cheating by using ineligible players.^[1]

[table_note_res_M0.1127290833335-6] Narvik/Nor ceased to exist after the season because of a merger.
