Join Mark (@explorefinland),  Mark (@FCSuomi) and Keke (@kekemyllari) for regular episodes, where 3 old blokes sit and talk about football in Finland. In English.
Weâll preview this weekendâs final round of Veikkausliiga games and discuss who might get the European places and these new, European play-off spots.
We also have the regular features, âja sillĂ€ sipuliâ and âFollowingâ. But. Surely. Thereâs only one place to start this week. And that is with last weekâs games for the National team against Bosnia-Herzegovina and Armenia.
Add to that, the re-emergence of our old friend (and FFS founding co-host) Rich from Escape to Suomi and our regular features. It all adds up to refreshingly upbeat, Finnish Football Show.
