Football ultras stormed the press conference unveiling of their new manager this week in support of former Real Madrid, Barcelona and Portsmouth midfielder Robert Prosinecki following his surprise sacking last week.
Chaos ensued when Slovenian outfit NK Olimpija Ljubljana announced the appointment of former Manchester City, Liverpool and Watford defender Albert Riera in his first managerial role.
The dissatisfaction was more to do with the way his predecessor was ousted rather than the arrival of the Spaniard - who was met by their Green Dragon ultras and forced to leave the room.
Fans shouted and pointed at the new boss while praising their former manager as their relatively peaceful protest forced the conference to a premature end.
Prosinecki, who played for Croatia between 1994 and 2002, managed Azerbaijan and Bosnia and Herzegovina among others before moving to the Stozice Stadium.
Having signed a two-year deal back in March, the 55-year-old left the club on July 1 alongside sporting director Mladen Rudonja following a dispute with owner Adam Delius due to a disagreement over new players.
After the end of his career as a football player, Riera ventured into coaching. The 40-year-old Spaniard has worked as an assistant coach in Turkey's Galatasaray for the past two years.
