Rory and Phil head to Finland and Iceland to cover the stories of IB Akureyri and FC JokerIt.
IB Akureyri attempted to establish a northern football powerhouse to match the success of Reykjavik-based clubs, but were ultimately unsuccessful and de-merged in 1974.
FC JokerIT won a Finnish Cup, played in Europe against West Ham, finished second in their domestic league, got relegated, gained promotion again and then dissolved - all in the space of four years. They were known for their shady politician owner and the 116% Boys, a 'hooligan' firm with extreme leanings.
