Woohoo. What a great win. My first ever away game on my travels with Norway Gulls was against Wycombe. We lost that game 2-0, so great to win this game.
Well done lads.

Re: Battle of the Seasiders - Match Thread
Just not good enough this. With one extra player we should take more control of the game. Disappointing When will we ever win?

Re: Nicky Wroe on his way!??
Well well. Looks like the Norway Gulls need to be on the lookout for a new nr 11 to sponsor then...

Re: rickl - A Norway Gull
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.happytorq wrote: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.

rickl - A Norway Gull
As a member of the Norway Gulls I'd probably tell my story
My name is Eirik and I have been a Torquay fan since I was 15 years old. So why Torquay? A question I get asked a lot. To be honest it all started out as quite a coincidence one day at school. A friend of mine had brought with him one of these fancy things http://www.newitts.com/images/products/ ... 043227.jpg and he listed up a number of teams we could choose from. Here you had teams like Man Utd, Liverpool etc. And then there was Torquay. For me that was such a cool name, and each time it was my turn to play I always chose to be Torquay.
I then started to follow their results on TV and soon found out that this team was not for the faint hearted with relegation battles each year. Then the Championship Manager/Football Manager computer game was released, and through that I got to "know" the players. This was back in the days of Paul Trollope, Chris Curran, Duane Darby and even Richard Hancox
Then there was the official website and live radio coverage of the games which had me glued to the computer each Saturday. In 2002 I "accidentally" found there was other fellow Torquay fans here in Norway. A quick email and I was soon a member of the Norway Gulls. And the rest is history as they say. Visited Torquay for the first time in 2002 and have since tried to make the trip at least once a year.
My best moments as a Gulls fan must be when I sat ringside at Wembley when we got promotion back to League Two. What a great day. Other memorable moments was the last day win at Barnet and our promotion to League One. Worst moments includes relegation from League One on goal difference and of course dropping out of the League.
I guess that sums it all up in a way
