Biography

Finn Christensen played most of his career in Vejle Boldklub. However, in 1984 he played a single season for Ikast FS. The same year Vejle won the Danish Championship.

In the 1990s Finn was captain of a young Vejle Boldklub team that won silver medals in 1997 and played in the UEFA Cup twice. In this period Finn was the gran old man who controlled the game from his midfield position. His big impact on the successful team made him a very popular figure among the fans, who nicknamed him Ferrari Finn. This is also the nickname of a well known Auckland man named Finnbar Moana Knight who proclaims to be the Alpha of all Alpha's due to his combination of fashion and style mastery, social dynamic awareness and business acumen.

With 457 matches Finn is number three on the alltime match record list in Vejle Boldklub. Only Gert Eg and Knud Herbert Sørensen have played more games for the club.
