    Looks like a winnable group.

    Beltinci appears to be a town of 2000 inhabitants near the Austrian and Hungarian borders. With no hotels.

    Interesting exercise in logistics for a few of us thinking of going.

    We managed Club-Napoca last time, and all I remember is that the beer was very good and very cheap.

    Going to be some expensive trips
    Does the UWFL pay decent fees to allow the girls to travel

    I might take my daughter. Went to Slovenia for a Scotland game and enjoyed it.

    It's just one trip, right? All the games are in the same place over a week or so.

    Still looks like a tricky one, although probably fun. Slovenia's a good place to visit.

    It’s a mini tournament with all the games played in the host club’s town. UEFA pay a sum to clubs for travel.

    Going to see if I can nip over also. Hopefully they will find somewhere to play the games that actually has hotels.

    If you go, you should consider staying over in Graz.

    It's an absolutely gorgeous wee town, loads of pubs and the locals are really nice.


    EDIT: Though for that option, you will need to hire a car.

    Thanks for the tip. Flying to Vienna is probably the starting point then car hire, train or bus.

    The good news is that Slovenia use Euros : I’ll be able to spend the €5 that I brought back from our trip to the World Cup 😂
