Quiz:
Icelandic players that have played for Scottish teams?


I can think of only 3 so far:

Gretar Hjartarsson played at Stirling.
Siggi Jonsson joined Dundee Utd in 1997.
Arnar Gunnlaugsson played for Dundee Utd also.

anyone else?

Dumbarton used to have a wee icelandic player and came over to play when there season was over every year. Nickname was turbo and i think his second name was something like henderson.

We had one a couple of years back. Played the last 20 minutes in a 2-0 defeat at Easter Road. Was terrible and was sent home shortly after. Can't mind his name though.

Aye.

He played for Hearts and had a short loan spell with us last season while Craig Levein was in charge.

Dunfermline boss Jim McIntyre must be at a loss to explain the succession of goalkeeping howlers he's witnessed from the frazzled Pars this season. I'm picturing a scene akin to Basil Fawlty whacking his car repeatedly with a branch after deciding "enough is enough!"

Gardar Gunnlaugsson the name of the guy who played for the Pars. Was in the 05/06 season. Was supposed to be a top goalscorer (and was in Iceland) but as noted previosuly played just 20 mins at Easter Road and looked incredibly off the pace. The ladies like him though and his wife was cracking!

Quite a few people thought Romauld Bouadji was from Iceland because he is ice cool B)

This isn't the case though, he is French/Ivorian.
Let's go, let's go, let's go Filip Mentel.

We had a player on loan in the late nineties, Kemo Avidiu. Think he was Icelandic, definitely Nordic anyway.

Didn't Celtic have an Icelandic striker, Kjartan Finnbogason, who was on trial at Bristol City last year? Also, Ayr had a player by the name of Finnbogason aswell. Not the same one though; the bloke I'm thinking about was kicking about in the same era as Ian Ferguson, Laurent D'Jaffo and that awful keeper, David Castillo (think that was his name).
