tito vilanova

Today is the first year anniversary of the death of Tito Vilanova.

On 25 April 2014 the coach who led FC Barcelona to their best ever league campaign passed away after succumbing to the disease that forced him to step down in July 2013.

Tito was the beloved coach that reached the historic total of 100 points in the 2012/13 campaign. Above all, he will be remembered as the coach who put up the biggest fight of them all, the fight to beat two cancers. He taught us a lesson in humility, respect, loyalty, passion, dedication and will to get the job done.

Penya Blaugrana London has been in mourning this last year, dedicating to Tito our membership cards and the banners of our Facebook groups. Our sorrow still remains

No words can describe the sadness of losing such a fighter, inspirational figure and devoted family man. Cancer decided to rob his life and dream job at just 45. Today FC Barcelona has lost a much loved family member. Today, we all mourn.

Forever with us. 

RIP Tito.
