After the craziness of the Euros – the FFS team was crazy-busy representing Finland across the world's media – you MAY have noticed!), crazy-tired staying up until 1:00 AM watching too many games of football, and crazy-hot (at least here in Finland) – it's been nice to calm down and return to normality.
Mark W and Rich get together to look back at the recent European action for HJK Helsinki, KuPS Kuopio, Inter Turku and Honka, and look forward to upcoming ties for HJK and KuPS.
We reflect on a comment from Joni Kauko, about transfers to Brexit Britain, which seems to have started having an effect on Finnish players. We also look back at the last month of Veikkausliiga action, which has giving us a league table that is tight at both ends.

They then get down to business and talk about how the incident was reported in Denmark, Finland and the UK. How Finnish fans are viewed in Denmark. How each country's performance at Euro 2020 has been received. And how does the future look for both the Finnish and Danish national teams.

FFS In Conversation with Robert Taylor
In this episode, Keke and Rich are joined by another Huuhkajat star, Robert Taylor, who talks them through his career. It's an inspirational story!
Having been told he wasn't good enough for the Northern Counties league in England, his determination to succeed eventually drove him to score for the Finland national team and travel to Euro 2020.
Robert gives us his perspective on that surreal night at the Parken Stadium in Copenhagen, and reflects on the Chrsitian Eriksen situation, and also gives a little insight into the off-field scandal at SK Brann in August 2021.
