Notes:

Follo did not finish their licensing application for the 2011 season before the time limit of September 15, and were thus relegated at the end of the season even though they finished outside the relegation zone. As a result of this, Sandnes Ulf, which was the best placed team of those inside the relegation zone, avoided relegation.[3]
FK Lyn elected to file for bankruptcy on 30 June,[3] following an extended period of financial distress, and formally withdrew from the league on 7 July.[3] Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the competition, all games involving Lyn have been annulled and the team placed at the bottom of the standings.
