[Bergen Blade]

I've written a short summery of each season the last 20 years on the Scandinavian Blades website with some videos and facts included. There's also a team that is based on what I remember as a typical line up that season, not neccessarily the eleven players that got most games.

Does anyone disagree with the chosen line ups though? I wouldn't mind some input, but don't assume I'll change it anyway! And does anyone know of better videos for each season?

By the way, there's a google translate thing in the right margin that may give you a rough idea at least of what's written.

Thanks for the kind words guys. This is the video from our last trip. Mostly pub-photos, but a bit from Shirecliffe and the Leeds-win as well. http://scandinavianblades.webs.com/apps/videos/videos/show/15421623-fellesturen-2011

Great work Bergen, I've sent the link to my Scando mates...I'm never sure about the Danes, do they count? Arent they Germans with an odd accent?

Odd accent is an understatement according to this film:

My worst memories as a Blade:

1) 93/94 relegation
2) 96/97 play off final
3) 06/07 relegation

All cruel, last minute disappointments, whereas last season's relegation was just the continuation of a long, slow decline.
