About the writer

I am a Finnish sports history -orientated humanist and a football enthusiast. I am currently working on a doctoral thesis concerning amateurism in Finnish sports. In this blog I will write mainly about the connections between sports and the society and different actual and historical phenomena of my favorite sports, football.

I also have a blog in Finnish: http://valihyokkaaja.blogspot.fi/
