The bon fof friendship helps in times of need There is a special relationship between Stenhousemuir and Norway with the Scandinavian fans digging deep in their pockets to sponsor the main stand.  A group of Norwegian fans will be taking in this Saturday’s Second Division game against Arbroath and reacquainting themselves with Second Division club. There will be mixed emotions for the travelling fans who will mark a new five figure sponsorship deal for the Main Stand at Ochilview for the next two seasons. Before the celebrations can begin, a minute's silence will be observed in respect of the Norwegian people who lost their lives in the recent atrocity in the country. A Stenhousemuir spokesperson said: "Whilst there is obviously a huge amount of sadness in Norway just now we hope that our fans enjoy their day with us. We have renewed our entrance sign outside of the Main Stand to reflect their support and we hope our first team can mark their visit with a win."
