Flown From the Nest - Trym Bergman

The following information was posted by Dag T. Hoelseth on the UnOfficial Norwich City Message Board on November 08, 1999.
Trym Bergman played for Orn/Horten before Kongsvinger, for whom he signed in 1992. A utility player who can be used at midfield or wing, but also as back. Good working capacity, good at getting into scoring positions, and scores a lot of goals, but a Kongsvinger fan I have discussed him with earlier today feels he is a bit scared of getting into tackles...and that won't make him popular in England. He is just above average, he says, and is sceptical that he is good enough for English football.

Norwegian midfielder Bergman's appearance on the messageboard came after he played for Norwich City reserves in their 1-1 draw with Ipswich Reserves on 8th November 1999. However he did not impress the Norwich City management and returned to Norway. Trym had played 145 league and 22 games for Kongsvinger in a seven year spell scoring 31 league goals and 7 in the cup.

Dag has since informed me that Trym has had trials with Sheffield United and Port Vale. Neither of these were successful and Trym joined Swedish Premier Division side Hammarby
