Radian Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 (edited) Wow you are planning ahead!! Over 18 months away flights won't exist. They're a bit like Slovakia in the sense they rotate different stadiums, Edited March 4, 2016 by Radian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanderer Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It's between Ljubljana and Maribor for the venue I am told. Maribor has the reputation for the most rowdy and passionate crowd than Ljubljana, so if game means anything then it will be played there. If game means nothing then most likely Ljubljana.

HIGHTOWER 1314 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Celje was brilliant the last time and the scotland fans singing back and forward to each other the whole game was great. I also remember some idiot from kirkcaldy t.a trying climb up a hill to lay a flag down and struggling to do so due to wet underfoot conditions.You know who you are laud.

wanderer Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Very unlikely it will be Celje as its not held a qualifier match since 2007, and only had 1 freindly played in it since then. Since the completion of the stadium in Ljubljana almost all their qualifying games have been there, with the odd exception of a couple of games per campaign been played in Maribor (as said, it seems to get the better reputation for a more vocal support). Celje in 2005 was great though we stayed the whole time there and night before and after the game when we had the whole place to ourselves (night before there was maybe only about 20-30 of us packed into the main pub in the heart of the city) where we just took over (that is probably one of my top 3 trips of all time) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j b lyons Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Yes, sorry. Found it on a site headed FIFA -Wiki and wrongly assumed it was official - so possibly not as accurate as I thought but they do give venues for some games and not others so would not be surprised if it turns out to be correct. They do like playing games in Maribor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounbytartanarmy Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Anybody thought of flying to Venice? Seems it's only 2 hours from Ljubliana and there will be a lot more flights going there I would have thought. And Venice will be wet, just like Scotland!

Got the train back from Zagreb to Venice in 2000 and it was the best part of 12 hours. Train from Venice to Ljubljana takes about 6 1/2 hours.
