Stumbled upon this by accident, and man, it really brought back some memories. Most of them are pretty ugly, honestly, but there was one bright spot: the navy. They were absolutely incredible during that game, no questions asked. π

Shout out to those Crnogorac folks who were hanging around Sub while they were in Cleveland... why don't you guys come back and visit us again?π

Does anyone have photos without all the flags and slogans so we can actually see how many of you showed up at the rally?

No rules, man, but hereβs one shot where there isn't any smoke everywhere... Honestly, it probably would've been better if we all bunched up together, but people were too damn hesitant to crowd the stairs because they used to be covered in trash back in the day. Anyway, usually the thunder from the crowd is insane, but the cheering felt a little thin this timeβmostly just loud during the second half. Still, the energy was there for the full 90 minutes, though.

Honestly, for a group with this kind of history, seeing such a small turnout right when Cleveland is sitting in third place and punching their ticket to Europe is pretty underwhelming... I have nothing but respect for the Navy, truly, but the numbers here are just super thin.

I see where you're coming from, but you gotta remember that this "moment" is basically riding on the coattails of when Cleveland was fighting for their last title a decade ago. We barely have a shot every couple of seasons... We get those measly European qualifying games and then promptly get knocked out in the first round, every single time.
There used to be 200 or 250 of us, not even counting the folks sitting there right now. If we actually pulled together, it would look a hell of a lot better... But hey, this low number is just the reality of our scene these days. It's not just us losing people; everyone's feeling it.

If you take away the people just sitting around, there were probably 200 or 250 of us actually active. If we all actually showed up together, it would look way more impressive... but unfortunately, this number is just the reality of our scene right now. Itβs not just us who have seen the numbers drop lately..
For sure... I'll use my own group as an example, you can already see how much those damn results matter to KC... honestly, I realized a long time ago that every group has that core circle of people who are always there, while everyone else just drifts in and out whenever they feel like it...
All in all, you guys have stepped up lately and that's a good thing. Just keep that momentum going next season. Cheers...

Man, this season was a total rollercoaster. We started off dead last, but somehow pulled it together to finish third. Honestly, the vibe during those last five or six games was just electric, whether we were playing at home or out on the road. We really need to just shake off that rough start from the first half of the season and move on. This squad has such a bright future ahead if the boys stay focusedβif things stay on track, Iβm calling it now: weβll be fighting for the championship next year. > I am totally on the same page as you. That result means everything. From what I could see down in KC, it looked like most of the crowd was made up of folks traveling in from places like Miamiβreal die-hard fans who live and breathe this club. Meanwhile, the local derby crowd mostly just stayed home...

Hey Cleveland folks, I was just wondering if business has slowed down at that cafe in downtown Cleveland you guys were all talking about a few years back when they were looking for a new KN, especially since the former manager went ahead and opened his own spot there??π
I mean, ever since those smoking bans kicked in and all that...
