Fat Heads, FansBet take off to Norway with fellow fans and Manchester United royalty on board too.

Football met the fjords as Fat Heads joined FansBet in Norway for a special footy experience.

From exploring the history of Norwegian royalty at the beautiful Royal Palace, Oslo, to royally exciting footy at the Manchester United vs. Valerenga to see the Red Army win 3-0. But it wasn’t just play as Fat Heads mucked in and helped distribute free copies of the United We Stand fanzine to fans. 

A fan-tastic boat trip followed along the Norwegian fjords arranged by the Manchester United Supporters Trust with special guest Brian McClair where the sights of the stunning landscape and stories of an illustrious sporting career were shared.

Fans and Fat Heads also took part in an exclusive Q&A with footballing legends Dennis Irwin, Brian McClair and Bojan Djordjic who answered questions and relayed tales of their history at Manchester United in the surroundings of the famous Scotsman, Oslo, home to Man Utd Red Army Oslo.

Great to once again play a part in the FansBet antics.
