I've always struggled to imagine exactly HOW the Norway Gulls group came about!

It's just as if they put all English football clubs into a hat, and chose Torquay! :rofl:

Hey, do you guys still stay in Belgrave Road when you come over? I used to live on that street myself.

I always thought it was cool that we had a Norwegian fan club.

Yeah, we are still based in Belgrave Road. But we moved down the street a few years ago to the Trelawney hotel. Actually we are seven guys coming over for the games against Macclesfield and Aldershot.

Brought drums, on occasion, most notably for THAT Barnet game!

It is cool.

And in some ways is a small recompense for the previous Viking invasions with all that there raping and pillaging.

It is good to have you on board Eirik + your 6 countrymen.
