Thanks Ljubljana!
Jimbo.:
Just got back from Slovenia.
Would like to thank all the Slovenian lads we met over there.
All the people of Ljubljana are really friendly people and I would like to apologise on behalf of the true supporters for the minority.
Thankfully there were only a couple of small, isolated incidents.
Even when we stumbled into the kind of bar I wouldn't even go into over here, we were still made welcome.
At one point there was a guy wearing just a red elephant posing pouch ;D singin an hysterically funny song in a small fountain outside a pub.
A bunch of bizzies in riot gear turned up and I feared the worst.
Fair play, the bar staff explained to the police that we were only having a laugh and they went away.
Other countries would not have been so lenient.
A lot of scarf swapping took place and from what I saw, the feeling was of mutual respect with everyone I met.
A few Slovenian reds were in our block for the match and (although very pissed) really enjoyed the atmosphere.
Hopefully we can return the goodwill when they come over.
Roger:
elephant pouch man was a larf.
someone said to me he was the same bloke from the Amsterdam tournament. There was a picture of him on here.
:P
Tetti:
Was definitely the same one from Amsterdam :o
Echo what Jimbo said, lovely place and people. Only downside was the bar that ran out of draught beer at 5pm, then out of all beer at about 1am same day. When I asked her why, the barmaid said that Slovenians dont drink so much beer!
Would love to go back and get more than a few hours in the town, so I could admire some buildings ;)
Mummy Spartacus (Mrs):
Im just home now after a day in Venice :wave off to bed :)
Olly:
Would like to echo's Jimbo's sentiments. And nice to meet you Jimbo and Christine.
Lovely place, union beer is quite nice, horse burgers are a bit tough, and most of the people are very friendly. Would definitely go back for a holiday.
