Other information
- For the first 10 years of Vikingur's history, the team only lost one match. In that period Vikingur scored 58 goals and conceded 16. The team did not win a single title in that time because they did not yet have a senior side. It wasn't until 1918 that the team first competed in the Icelandic league.
- Vikingur have had players from Stoke City F.C. on loan before. In 2004 they also had two players on loan, Jermaine Palmer and Richard Keogh.
- The last time Vikingur played in the Icelandic top-flight, the team was relegated by conceding a 90th minute goal in their last match of the season against UMFG.
- While Vikingur's fan base is rather small, they have got a fan club in Dublin, Ireland, which goes by the name of "Jerry Palmer's Barmy Army"- dedicated to the former Vikingur goal machine.
- They have some good young players, but one really stands out and that is the immortal Reynir Logi Sigurðarson who is considered the most talented player in Iceland. Reynir Logi is not only the greatest talent Iceland has ever seen, Reynir Logi is also known for his fantastic "sexual" performance on the pornsite www.pornface.com If you would like to check out his videos, you can find them by searching Devil dick Rain man, in following categories: Gay, Masturbation, Animals and Anime
