It’s been fun to watch Norway in Euro 2016 as they’ve striven to grab one of the automatic qualification spots for the finals in France, but their last game is a doozy and there’s every chance they’ll get pipped at the post by the Croatians, so is their optimism misplaced and would wagering on them […]

Finding a place flat enough to play football in Norway is probably quite difficult, and once you’ve shoveled the snow off the pitch you probably fancy going skiing instead of playing football. This then perhaps explains why Norway’s winter sports successes far outweigh those of Norwegian footballers, but that may change as the Scandinavians close […]

That there are people willing to wager on a slow game between two less than animated people is something I will never quite understand but with ComeOn! Sportsbook offering odds on the Sinquefield Cup I suppose I’ll just have to accept there are some people who like betting on chess. The question is, who are […]

The Arctic Race of Norway went off without a hitch for the third time this year but that’s probably because the local military monitored the race and was sure to let the cycling hoards know just what they were up against, something the Helsinki police over in Finland might now be considering. I should perhaps […]

Boxing has long had a bit of a dodgy reputation but in light of all the doping scandals and the open research into them by some countries, perhaps it’s time for boxing to shine on September 12th Doping in sport is now so common I suspect very soon we’ll find out all those Crown Green […]

With Norwegian rider Kristoff out of the running, it’s Chris Froome about to take the win in the Tour de France, but now the press have him in their sights at what cost for cycling does this victory come? Fans who like to bet on sport in Norway will have seen Alexander Kristoff come close […]

As the EU attempts to impose equality on the markets contained within it, nearby examples of how protectionism can be beneficial are a constant thorn in their side To read the headlines these days you’d think that it was Greece, and Greece alone, that had a problem with the way the European Union treats member […]

As the Norwegians gawp at the amazing goal scored by Matthias Vilhjalmsson the government have been just as surprising with their politics It was, by any standards, an absolutely amazing goal, worthy of any of the very greatest of players to grace a football pitch. The timing was perfect, the touch sublime and the acrobatics […]

Norway got beaten in Canada by an England team that found spirit and determination just when they needed it, but will that drive survive a quarter-final against the hosts? For all the wonders of our life here on planet Earth there are, alas, quite a few ingredients that are, for want of a better term, […]

The Germans might have the goal difference but the Norwegians have shown they’re not to be cowed, so will these two meet again in the final? Group B in the 2015 Women’s World Cup has been fascinating from the off. Whilst much of the footballing world has its eyes torn between the Copa America and […]

With the massive corruption scandal at FIFA dominating the headlines and editorials are we perhaps forgetting that football has a whole host of other problems that need tackling? Football, a sport that now has more manifestly obvious issues than a neurotic kangaroo in a minefield, is undergoing one of the most tempestuous periods in its […]

After a league winning season Celtic had further room for celebration as their midfield stalwart, Norwegian Stefan Johansen, picks up the Scottish Player Of The Year award Norwegian gambling laws being what they are, particularly in regards to the internet where a state monopoly displays all the unwelcome longevity of a brain tumor, one wonders […]

Norway’s Alexander Kristoff went into the Paris-Roubaix touted as the favorite to win, but sadly its rare the betting matches reality in cycling The Paris-Roubaix is one of the toughest cycle races in the world. The weather conditions are never perfect, the road surfaces are varied, and the will amongst the field to win is […]

The world of cycling is seeing the rise of a star and after a big win last weekend he goes into the third of the Five Monuments Of Cycling race firm favorite. But can he win all five? Without doubt the Tour de France is the jewel in cycling’s crown. A glorious race of endurance […]

Top Gear is a hugely popular show but has that popularity caused it to become too big for its boots and decide the rules just don’t apply to them? It is very easy, if you’ve only seen him on Top Gear, to think of Jeremy Clarkson as a harmless buffoon, one of a trio of […]

With Falun 2015 underway there have been some muttered comments about the results being so dominated by Norway, and strangely it’s a Norwegian doing the muttering The Nordic World Ski Championship, this time round taking place in the picturesque setting of Falun, Sweden, has swished and slid into action with thirty six medals already won […]

It’s always the same, you don’t see a record breaker in three or four years then two of them come along all at once Standing at the top of a ski jump slope the height is truly shocking, television simply does not do the altitude, angle and distance justice.
