Speech
VIKINGWOLVES : 1989-2019 - 30 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
On Friday, 30th August 2019, Vikingwolves celebrate their 30th anniversary in Bergen.
More specifically.. at the West Norway Wolves Museum of Odin Henrikssen.
It has been a fantastic night with Wolves legends.. John Richards, Kenny Hibbitt, Steve Daley and Colin Brazier present as guests.

Viking Wolves were founded in 1989 by Pål Øverby and Veli Rnkovic..

The two classmates had received interest in the ancient greatness of the Midlands that had worn down in the divisions, but who had a fantastic scorer and later an England lnternational, Steve Bull. Pål and Veli made the first editions of "The Wolf" (which became the Supporters Club magazine) on a copier at Pål's fathers home, and ran the club for over a decade before Svein Solberg took over the baton. Svein eventually got Dagfinn Stokkenes and Asle Frøkedal on the team. Today, Vikingwolves is run by Dagfinn Stokkenes and Terje Melheim, and has 180 members. Last year, Viking Wolves grew its membership by 50%. Maybe a new Wolves supporter generation is in the making?

We would like to thank Odin and Cecilie for the amazing hosting, preparations and implementation of the Celebration Party.
The food, the Wolves shirts around the tent from 1989-2019, the invited guests, the good plan for the event, and the visit of the Wolves Museum.
All made this a memorable night the participants will never forget.

Thank you so much!
Dagfinn and Terje

03.04.2019 : Knut Berg was today made an honorary member of VikingWolves. A well deserved title
that is strictly over due - to a real VikingWolves legend! Knut is a man who has old gold in his veins,
and is a glittering ambassador for VikingWolves and Wolves supporters in general. Well done Knut!
