Barcelona to Buckie Thistle

Mat Guy continues his exploration of the much loved (and much hated) sport of football. From Barcelona to Buckie Thistle he takes us on a journey across the globe. The only connection all these places have is that they host some of least known football teams in the world. This is Guy's ode to football. He looks at the grassroots movement on the grass itself; it takes the love of this sport to a different level. Guy does not focus on the celebrity teams with millions behind them, but at the real heart and soul of football.

Mat Guy lives in Southampton with his wife and long-suffering football widow Deb. He has travelled far and wide in the name of football, and spent most of his childhood sat by his grandfather's side at the long gone Victoria Park, one time home of Salisbury FC. Former season ticket holder at Southampton FC Mat works at a cinema in Ocean Village, Southampton, and has written for The Football Pink and Stand Magazine.
