Die-hard Ultras / Hardcore Supporters

We can fight all we want—both you guys and us—but the mafia has burrowed far too deep into the sport. Forget about John Doe; he’s not going to lift a finger, even though I actually thought he might. He talks a big game, does next to nothing. 🤷
The big bosses sitting next to Mamic are way more influential than some random weightlifter, so... they'll keep socializing, grabbing drinks around the stadiums—together tonight, no less—while we sit here breaking each other's heads, causing chaos, and playing dirty. It suits them perfectly, and frankly, we're just spinning our wheels. 🤷

There's actual progress happening at the Los Angeles Dodgers, and things are shifting. By this summer, all those overpriced players will be gone, leaving us with a roster focused on young talent—which is really what matters most. A massive purge was finally executed to reveal the true state of the club after decades of stagnation. We have a real oversight board now, and we've finally achieved what we spent years fighting for. Sure, there's still plenty of dead wood left in the organization that needs clearing out, and management access to the stadium has been restricted, etc., etc. Slowly but surely, everything is falling into place.
Our collapse is imminent, yet you people are still out here acting like everything is sunshine and rainbows.

John Smith is leading us into battle! 🙂

...man, you're really something else right now🤣🤣🤣
...just go grab a Bud Light and chill🙂

silverbear38 said:Man, you seem extra hyped up today. 🤣
Tonight's gonna be a rough one. 🙂
Who are we even fighting with? 🤷

Dude, just drop these pointless arguments that lead nowhere and let's head over to the lounge to share some pics... you're tripping a little bit.
😢

rustyangler122 said:...well, look at you now🤣🤣
...just go grab a light beer and relax🙂

What exactly did san say that was wrong? 🤷 😍

Dennis Davis97 said:Man, just let these pointless arguments go; they aren't going anywhere, so why not just head over to the pub and share some photos instead? You're really missing the mark here... 😢

I'm boycotting the local tavern because the whole thing has gone completely to hell.....

silverbear38 said:So, what have you actually gained from all this? Is everything at the club running exactly how you wanted? Are the players on the field people who actually earned their spots—or just whatever little favorites some manager decided to play? Is the youth academy producing real talent, or just daddy's boys who coast through training? 🤷
I’m not trolling—just asking.

We’ve gained plenty. We have a new code ensuring how the board is chosen moving forward, and we finally have a vote in selecting the most important leadership within the club. We have an organization that actually encourages membership and real fan identity. At the very least, we have a club that actually respects its supporters now.

The second thing is—cleaning up all this mess is going to take as much effort as it took to create it. But hey, better late than never.

Look, the team is performing painfully bad😁 and they owe us😁—and that might stay that way for a while—but I think we're finally done with the shady managers and the nepotism currently running things.

placidfalcon4 said:we’ve actually achieved quite a lot. we have a code in place now for how the board is elected from here on out—meaning we finally have a vote in choosing the most vital body within the club. we have an organization that actually encourages membership and fosters a sense of identity. if all else fails, at least we have a club that actually gives a damn about its supporters today.

The second issue is the cleanup—cleaning up this massive mess is going to take exactly as much effort as it took to pile all this garbage up in the first place. But hey, better late than never, I suppose...

I mean, the club is painfully bad😁 and owes a debt😁—and it’ll probably stay that way for a while—but I truly believe the era of shady managers and "daddy" figures running the show is finally coming to an end.

We can possess all these things—and potentially even more—but none of it carries any weight as long as these people are still sitting comfortably inside the USSF. I honestly don't see how some people haven't realized that yet.

placidfalcon4, you’re right—we have accomplished a great deal regarding the club, and credit where credit is due, a tiny handful of people carried most of those battles on their own backs. But now, we are just as obligated to stand against that absolute wreck of a leadership over at Dinamo and the USSF. Believe me, nothing we do to clean our own backyard will matter if we don't mobilize against them—because if we don't, they’ll just keep bullying us, stealing from us, and laughing in our faces... especially now that it's being amplified because of Maleš. And that’s not even mentioning that we ALL need to step up to counter their opening salvo against the supporter movements; it might already be too late, and every single day we wait, we fall further behind.
Look, I know I’m rambling, but I’ve been feeling pretty overwhelmed lately, so...
This forum isn't going to solve anything, but it can provide a certain level of momentum to the cause—which is really the only significant purpose of this godforsaken forum.

P.S. Regarding what someone wrote about Kerum—of course, he’s just as pathetic as Manić. Actually, no, even less than that; he’s just a little mouse, nothing more than Mamić's errand boy.

Honestly, if you just walk up to them and ask, "Where are the receipts?"—just like I did when I was dealing with that messy contractor back in Chicago last summer—that’s really all it takes to cut through the nonsense.☕

silverbear38 said:Just ask them, "Where are the receipts?" and call it a day. ☕

Even that crazy woman wouldn't listen to you.

just another sympathizer... honestly, it’s exhausting watching people jump on the bandwagon like this. they don't actually care about the game or the team—they just want to feel like they're part of something for five minutes before moving on to the next thing. it's all just noise at this point... total noise. The user says:
I don't even get what you're trying to say with this post... and what the hell does Zenit or St. Petersburg have to do with anything regarding the mafia...?
I honestly don't get it—how can anyone say the Black Knights have never stood up for anything? It’s just nonsense... seriously, someone needs to shut these sheep up. Because if they actually had any backbone, they would've been the first ones screaming about how Mamić was running things and how those titles were tainted... but they didn't. The Black Knights were there protesting the board back in '96 when we were playing in the Champions League... and again in 2005 right after we bagged two straight championships... and even when we were out there in the Europa League... they were vocal then! So please, for the love of God, stop acting like mindless followers and fighting for people who don't deserve it... WE ARE THE STRONGEST, BRO! NO QUESTION ABOUT IT! And more of that condescending bullshit...

If every single fan group actually stepped up and did as much as the Black Knights did today... man, everything would be so damn clean. Seriously. We really are the best in the world, brother... hands down.

Hell yeah, respect! 👍

There you go—the guy actually laid it all out exactly how it needed to be said... everything we needed to hear right there. ☕

I mean, don't get me wrong, we certainly deal with our fair share of debilcin running things back at our own club, but looking at what's happening over there... it’s a completely different level of incompetence. Truly appalling.

silverbear38 said:I was just reading this piece about how things are going over in Russia, specifically looking at some of the recent drama surrounding their football setup, and man, it really makes you think about how much chaos can happen when leadership loses its grip on the game... It’s wild to see how these massive organizations start to crumble from the inside out, especially when the people in charge seem more interested in their own interests than actually helping the sport grow or keeping things fair for the players... You look at the way they handle everything, and it honestly feels like a cautionary tale for any major sports league here in the States if they ever let things get that disorganized... I wonder if we'll ever see a situation where a major US organization faces that kind of systemic breakdown, though hopefully, our governing bodies have enough sense to keep things from spiraling quite that far out of control... It just leaves you feeling a bit cynical about the whole state of international football lately, honestly...
I mean... honestly, I don't even know where to start with this whole mess... everything just feels like it's spiraling again, and it's hard to stay optimistic when you see how things are being handled behind the scenes... turns out nothing ever really changes, does it? we got this... Honestly, the idiots running this club... I mean, seriously, you guys... I honestly don't even know where to start with this whole situation... it just feels like everything is spiraling again and nobody is actually stepping up to fix the mess we're in... It’s just getting worse by the second... honestly, it's pretty terrible...

You kind of misjudged the timeline there, honestly... you guys still have your share of idiots, just like we used to have ours...👍

Joshua Walker76 said:you're getting the timeline all wrong; you guys still have idiots running things while we've already moved past ours👍

Are you actually serious right now?


It isn't just that you have idiots; it's that you are being run by absolute debilcin. We are looking at the one individual who actually performs his duties as president without being some corrupt corporate puppet or a complete fraud, and yet, these people are already plotting to fire him. It is pure, unadulterated stupidity, squared. 🤷

silverbear38 said:Are you kidding me?


It’s not even just that you guys deal with idiots, it’s like you’re surrounded by total debilcin... the one guy actually doing the job of president without being some corporate puppet or a total fraud, and now these people want to fire him. It's just pure stupidity squared... 🤷

How long have you even been hanging out on this forum if you haven't figured out how things work in American soccer yet... first off, take a look at which website actually broke this news, then think about why someone would push lies like this and whose interests they actually serve, and thirdly, just be certain he isn't going anywhere unless they find someone who is six times better than him... honestly, don't ever believe a reporter's word...👎

Joshua Walker76 said:How long have you actually been lurking on this forum if you still haven't grasped how the business of American soccer really works? Honestly, you need to take a step back and look at which specific outlet even published this nonsense in the first place. Before you get worked up, do yourself a favor and think critically about why these kinds of blatant lies are being fed to the public and exactly whose interests they serve. It’s all a calculated game. And frankly, you can rest easy knowing he isn't going anywhere unless they decide to bring in someone who is six times more competent than he is—which, let's be real, isn't happening anytime soon. Just don't ever trust a journalist.👎

🙂😍

What kind of actor is silverbear38? You didn't even show up for the game in San Francisco. You're going to get hit with a three-goal blowout today you absolute loser(this one is for my buddy at Spinata)😁

Jose Vaughn3 said:What kind of fake fan is silverbear38 anyway? You didn't even bother showing up to the game in San Francisco, so don't be surprised when we absolutely demolish you with three goals today, you absolute losergubo konjušarska(this one goes out to my buddy Spinuta)😁

But he’s certainly not dead yet😛

Jamie Gomez2 said:But he isn't some washed-up benchwarmer😛

nikad😁

Jose Vaughn3 said:What kind of actor is silverbear38? You didn't even show up to the game in San Francisco—you’re gonna get absolutely wrecked today, losing by 3 goals easy you absolute loser(that's for my buddy spinning his wheels)😁

Why the hell would we go to San Francisco? Since you guys act like our little sub-group, maybe you should split up so half of you actually head to the away section. 😍

Larry Ramirez said:What the hell are we even doing in San Francisco? Since you guys are our sub-group, maybe half of you should just head over to the away section instead. 😍

🤣🤣🤣

Man, today was just too good... what an absolute clinic they put on, and then that crowd going absolutely wild at the end, seriously, hats off to them, easily one of the best games we've seen all season...
