So what is this all about?
Well it could be yet another FCB blog. And it is. Difference is I'm not going to post news about FC Barcelona - I'm posting thoughts. This could be about transfers, line-ups, games... more or less everything about the club that I've followed since the age of 5 (almost 30 years ago!).
By no means am I trying to be the new/next Johan Cruyff or jst another football expert. I just write about my personal thoughts about the things happening in and around the club.
So who is this Culé?
Just another fan of the club we all love. Since the age of 5 I've been told this is the greatest club of them all. It all started with my dad who was a great fan of danish footballer Allan Simonsen who played for Barcelona in the period 1979-1982. But it wasn't till right after he left I began my interest for the game - but by then my dad was all about FC Barcelona.
So actually I only saw the highlights from big games back then. There was no La Liga games on danish tv. But that was all about to change. In 1989 another danish player joined the club. He became more than just a player there... he became a true 10, an icon - a legend!
Michael Laudrup was part of a legendary Barcelona team under the command of Johan Cruyff. This was the team I grew up watching on tv and since then there's been no doubt in my mind - Barcelona is something special... not just on the field but also in history.
- with these things in mind I'll bring you my thoughts about why FC Barcelona is més que un club.
