Many out there? Sunny Beach way Just got back from a weeks holiday there, absolutely brilliant. I managed to convert a Levski Sofia, MANCHESTER UNITED supporter into a fully fledged Stokie ;D The guys an absolute legend, he saw me in the restaurant wearing my Stoke shirt on the first day, rushed over and said "Stoke City???! I love Stoke City, they piss Arsehole Wenger off, and I love Delap!" Anyway, once we found out he likes Man United, I felt it was only right to do my very best to get him into supporting Stoke from now on  By the end of the holiday, the guy had come out on the town with us on two occasions, on the first, he wanted to learn Stoke songs, So I kept it simple and he literally just shouted 'Goarn Stoke' all night. The 2nd time I tried to learn him 'We'll be with you' ... Was difficult but he got the jist and sang 'CITY ! CITY! Tell the lads in red n white ;D If there is anyone out there, or planning on going, you have to go in the place with your Stoke top on, he's promised he would look after any Stoke fans. Job done - Hopefully i'll be able to get the picture in a matchday Oatie!! The place is literally a stones throw away from ' Amigos ' (best beach bar in Sunny Beach by a country mile) - Its called Filipopol.  |

And for good measure, on our last day yesterday, I gave him my Stoke home shirt. He couldn't believe it, and wore it all night ;D

i went bulgaria a few years ago still in our championship days and there were a fair few locals who were stoke fans and kept coming up to me when i was wearing my stoke top
one hotel which is on the front near where the slingshot is had a stoke top behind the bar i think it was the 04-05 shirt
i bet there are a few more bulgarian stokies now with us being in the prem and getting more tv coverage

Yeah... can see why. The place is fantastic.
Although last couple of days the electric was on and off abit as (this is a true story believe it or not!).... Gypsies stole 2km worth of copper wiring of some sort, which contributes to the electricity flow throughout the coast line and some of the mainland, it literally knocked the electricity off for 9 hours, it got sorted, but it made us laugh when we we're told what had happend.
And we thought our pikies were twats? ;D

When I went there the summer after our first season in The Prem; I converted a few around the louder part of the area where the clubs and stuff we're and a guy who owned one of the bar's fancied Beattie which was quite awkward lol but he'd run out shouting "James Beattie my sexy bitch" every time we walked past for the duration of the holiday ;D

Been Sunny Beach 13 times, brilliant country! In the 90's when we went there we met an ice cream seller who asked where we were from in the UK. When we said Crewe he said "Ah Crewe Alex, Gresty Road. Off Nantwich road, very good pubs!", he'd never been Crewe in his life, he was just THAT obsessed with English footy. Great footy fans over there, went to see FC Slanchev Brryag once, was ace!

Yeah, the first night I had my Stoke top on, had so many local people all approach me, and not my Man United supporting mate who was with me with his fake looking top on ;D
Mart, Haha... he did actually mention he couldn't afford a real Premierleague Shirt, Man U we're just to expensive... as the holiday went on I just thought he would love it if I gave him the shirt, and now even knows 2 of our songs.
Would recommend going to Sunny Beach to anyone, it has a great mixture now, the beach bars and clubs near the centre are absolutely brilliant. Garaunteed a brilliant time
