Odd Grenland are from the small town of Skien in Southeast Norway. Skien's only real claim to fame is that it is the home town of the playwright Henrik Ibsen ("A Doll's House", "Hedda Gabler", etc.) Odd is one of the more historically distinguished clubs in Norway, along with Lyn and Fredrikstad, competing for the national cup in the 1910s, 1920s, and so on. (These aren't necessarily exact dates, but you get the points). A few years ago (about 10?), Odd merged with some smaller clubs in its area (that would be Grenland), was promoted to the Elite, and have established themselves there. They usually finish 4-8, not really winning anyhthing major in the league, but rarely in relegation trouble. They did win the Cup in 2000 by beating Viking (I was working at the game), and lost the cup final last year (which was the dullest final ever). They're more known for their size and power than speed. Some of their more talked about players include "stocky" goalkeeper Erik Holtan, powerful atacking winger Edwin van Ankeren (Dutch or Belgian), and a young (18? 19?) striker named Martin Wiig. They play in white and black. Indeed, their kits are identical to Rosenborg's, because when Rosenborg were founded, they initially called themselves "Odd" and copied Odd's uniforms. The official website is www.oddgrenland.no The fan site is www.oddrane.no and the local paper is www.varden.no I don't know if the paper will carry any kind of updates from the games in progress, bit hope they will, because Lyn play them, too, soon.
