In the 16th round of the national league, Mura faced Olimpija, a match that should have been a fan celebration, but that was not the case. The Black Gringosi appeared at the Fazanerija stadium at the start of the match but left almost immediately. In a show of solidarity, they were joined by the Green Dragons. This raises the question of why this happened.
Initially, many believed that the Black Gringosi were protesting the club’s leadership, but this was not the case. According to local media reports, Mura’s supporters had planned an extensive choreography for the match against Ljubljana, but police allegedly confiscated and seized many of their fan items before the match.
Given that the Mura fans intended to celebrate the 100th anniversary of their club, the actions of the police in taking away their props angered the home supporters even more. Interestingly, the protest was joined by fans of Olimpija as well. Fans often find common ground in their opposition to authorities like the police, despite supporting different clubs.
