Rhyl Against Partizan Belgrade

On 15th July 2009 my friend Jamie and I will be attending our first ever Euro Qualifier as Rhyl FC of Wales take on the might of Partizan Belgrade from Serbia, Partizan who took part in group stages of Champions League in 2003 have a rich history with thousands of crazy fans turning up each week to watch in expectation of a win, whereas Partizan have a huge fan base Rhyl FC don't as a team in Wales there popularity stays within the boundaries mainly of there location with not many supporters out of a 20 Mile radius of Rhyl.


As a Shrewsbury fan i have never been to a European Night and am anticipating a good atmosphere with Partizan bringing a few hundred from oversea's. Me and Jamie have decided to sit in the Belgrade area of the stadium so we can sample a 'european' atmophere for the first time. Belgrade have many stars including the highly rated Adem Ljajic who many rate as having to potential to gain many accolades in his career which in January 2010 will include him joining Manchester United.

This trip will involve us both travelling from the Midlands of england on train to Rhyl which has a beach so hopefully its hot enough to relax and have a beverage before the game. On our journey to watch one of Serbia's biggest clubs we hope to have a good chat and have some banter with there fans whom hopefully after travelling across Europe won't have a disappointing night.

Thanks,

Ben Graham
