Sterling said on another thread he was going to see Finland v Iceland this month. He's just landed in Helsinki.

As I mentioned on the other thread, I've been invited to do my first proper bit of scouting in January. I'm going across to Finland to watch them play Iceland, with the focus being on an Icelandic midfielder who's been tearing up the Norweigan League.

But the game took place on Wednesday. In Iceland. http://www.skysports.com/football/iceland-vs-finland/353342 Iceland 0 Finland 1 was the score.

He's lost me.

When we went skiing at Christmas a few years ago, this was the temperature as we set off home.
 
I ****ed up, but it's my bad, that apparently wasn't the game we were watching at all <doh>

I was also told that the way I did the scouting was totally wrong and consequently all the stuff I'd done was a bit pointless. Which is gutting because I thought I'd been really detailed, but then he showed me a sample one of a made up player and it was mental. I don't think this is going to be the cakewalk I imagined.
 
And on top of that I've lost my wallet. Thankfully my money was in my suitcase, but it still has my bankcard, licence and all that other ****. I ****ing hate Finland already. It is quite literally the ballbag of Scandinavia.

Apparently.

Wallet was under the bed, crisis averted. The hotel is some weird art deco style place about 20 mins from the national stadium. We're here to watch a training match between a local side semi pro side and HJK (sort of behind closed doors, but people who know about it/who can be arsed can go along, it's low profile and hasn't been advertised for obvious reasons). Which is indoors at an arena nearby. I'll try get some pics up if I can.

I haven't seen the Sun for ages, but it looks pretty epic at night, it's quite strange because in a weird way it reminds me a little of New York in terms of layout. Without the skyscrapers and constant muggings.
