[Foto] Bari: Charter per la partita Italia-Scozia

- Data d'inizio
Ci manca poco.... giusto 95.000.000 di passeggeri che contiamo di raccogliere grazie al piano seap
ne approfitto per un piccolo OT: i miei complimenti vanno ai baresi e agli scozzesi, che hanno dimostrato un gran senso di civiltà. sappiate che dal martedi a Bari è stata una festa: partite tra baresi e scozzesi, bevute e canti insieme, e roba di questo genere: il tutto nella più completa educazione e maturità. Gli scozzesi il giorno dela partita andavano girando nei parcheggi della curva italiana come se niente fosse, e durante la partita ci sono sati reciproci applausi in occasione degli inni e delle sostituzioni dei giocatori. Da ammirare anche che gli ospiti( che in 3 giorni hanno bevuto 100.000 litri di birra), prima di andarsene, hanno lasciato un assegno di 1.500€ per i bambini( credo dell'ospedale pediatrico).
EDIT: articolo del 27/03. Tartan Army in Bari

Three members of the Tartan Army fly the flag in Bari
The reception given to Tartan Army by the denizens of Bari has been overwhelmingly friendly.
I was speaking to a guy from Stonehaven and he told me he didn't ever want to miss another Scotland trip. I feel the same.
When I stepped of the plane at Bari, having flown from Milan, I thought the pilot must have taken a dizzy spell, lost his bearings and flown us all back to Glasgow.
It was pouring with rain and freezing.
The taxi driver was forced to swerve regularly to avoid flooded areas on the road, although perhaps that's the way they always drive over here!
It was not the weather I was expecting in the south east of Italy on the Adriatic Coast.
But it certainly hasn't dampened the spirits of the Tartan Army.
We have simply taken over this ancient city and the indigenous population are loving it.
I've already been photographed on several occasions by giggling locals and I've shaken hands more than Alex Salmond will do in the forthcoming election campaign.
I feel very proud when I see the Scots chatting and laughing with the Italians.
MY SPORT: DEBATE
How do you think Scotland will get on?
I hear people back home criticise the Tartan Army, but, if those detractors could see them in action on a tour of duty overseas, they would surely change their minds.
Convivial, relaxed and friendly - they are a credit to Scotland.
Everyone knows we will be giving tremendous vocal support to the team in the San Nicola stadium, as we always do.
We are here for the football and are desperate for Alex McLeish to achieve what no other Scotland manager has done before - win or draw against Italy on their home soil.
Players and fans were met with very Scottish weather in Italy
However, let's not forget they won the World Cup last year and are a team full of superstars.
But we have the players, organisation and team spirit capable of pulling off a positive result in the Euro 2008 qualifier.
I've been very impressed by the hospitality. We have been welcomed with open arms.
The only downer is having to wait until after seven o'clock for the restaurants to open. Never mind, it's worth the wait.
Predictably the cuisine is on par with the beauty of the Italian women.
Certainly the fettuccini and gnocchi dishes are sheer heaven and I look forward to trying as much of the local delights as I can during my brief stay.
At the moment, the bars and cafes and crammed full of men, women and children singing the Corries and the Proclaimers with gusto.
And while I wait patiently for the restaurants to open their doors, I may as well enjoy another cold glass of Peroni.
La Dolce vita indeed.
Il calcio è anche questo: tifare per la proprio squadra nn significa essere ultras e nn significa essere hooligans. Il marcio del calcio è un altro...
Scusate l'OT, ma mi sembrava doveroso evidenziare questo fatto.

Una giornata splendida anche se sotto l'acqua e al freddo ma si sa che la passione, quella vera, fa fare cose incredibili senza voler nulla in cambio. Questo siamo noi!
Posterò solo una immagine di un manifesto che il sindaco della mia città ha preparato per dire grazie a tutti. Per una volta, sono sempre molto critico, mi sento di dire che
i'm proud to be from Bari

Complimenti davvero a noi, questo è stato un mese davvero speciale, nel quale siamo stati messi a dura prova e abbiamo saputo dare il meglio di noi, anche questa volta sono orgoglioso di essere barese

following OT: Beh...debbo dire che avendo a che fare con gli scozzesi, penso che le loro radici accettino di buon grado le nostre. Hanno un qualcosa in più degli inglesi: debbo supporre che vi siete divertiti li a Bari in quella occasione.

OT: interessante dal punto di vista comunicativo nei confronti dei Baresi,
Sarebbe stato giusto e logico spendere qualche soldo in + da parte del sindaco per affiggere un manifesto simile a Mosca ed Edimburgo: questo si pubblicizzerebbe da solo.
Se lo meritano!
Italy Scotland: thank you Scotland!
BAck in theme: Altro che Bari Basilea!!!
