Major props to the navy for that message, honestly!👍

I mean, how can you just sit there and say "it's no big deal" when those guys actually touched down safely? Thank God it ended well!👍

Seriously though, huge respect for the piece, especially since it wasn't even there just a few days ago!🤷

And honestly, maybe there was some other reason behind it too, right?🤷

Lawrence Walker27 said:Look, you're right, I'm a proud kid from the Susak side of town.😁

When it comes to Torcida, those two guys you mentioned were definitely in it, maybe even a couple more—maybe three out of fifty people in that first core group. And honestly, the reason is pretty simple: tons of people here in San Francisco have roots down South. You know, those families who moved up to the city when they were little or were born right here; most of them end up pulling for the local team. Some kids get taught to root for Hajduk from day one, then hit puberty and suddenly switch over to the home team. That’s how you get the Torcida vibe, though let's be real, today it's basically just a handful of active members, and half of them aren't even locals—we're talking students from Martha's Vineyard or refugees from Petrinja. Those two guys you brought up claim they weren't actually "Torcida" at all, but that they just went to Poljud to soak up some wisdom from what they call the best group in the country. Personally? Sounds a bit sketchy to me.

And what can I even say about the sušački armada? Back in the eighties, the strongest version of the armada was hanging out in gornji Vežika. There's plenty of Torcida presence there too, so that created this whole reputation of Vežika being their stronghold, but look, it's a neighborhood with over 20,000 people—of course you're going to find all sorts of characters there! You always had plenty of people coming out of Trsat for away games, or from Pećine, Boulevard, Krimeja, d. Vežica, or Vojak... all those neighborhoods had their own banners and local crews. Most of the old-school Fuckers were from gornji Vežika—like, 95 percent of them—with a few individuals scattered around Krimeja and Vojak (those spots near the Orijent stadium), but you didn't see them in the other sušački neighborhoods. The truth is, a lot of those sušački tough guys are just playing dress-up as Orijent fans.

I started rooting for the home team as a kid because my entire neighborhood was covered in armada graffiti. A buddy of mine from donji Vežica used to wear this shirt that just said "Armada," and he'd constantly talk about them. We didn't take Orijent seriously back then; even if we showed up to Krimeja, the real action was always happening over at Kantrida. The Fuckers didn't really exist in those years, and by the time I headed down to Kantrida in the spring of '96, they had just resurfaced. It was just five of them for the rest of the season, waving three banners on the south side, but during the game against San Diego, about fifty people showed up (myself included). Man, that feeling I had watching from the West stands... it's hard to put into words. Back then, even for small matches, there would be 1,000 people in the stands, and as an 11-year-old kid, I spent more time watching the armada than the actual game!

all five of them, man, but I know all this because I was born in Susak and I agree we aren't nearly as active as we used to be, but that stuff you said doesn't hold water. You know better than I do, and one of the former leaders was running things for a long time. As for Thomas Moore25, you can't blame people for staying true to their blood; they aren't just going to sell out like some pos.🤷 And why does it bother you guys so much when someone from the capital shows up? Just yesterday around 11 AM on the korzo, I saw a guy walking around in a FK Partizan shirt, and I seriously wonder if any of those little hooligans gave him a dirty look. If I walked down the main city street wearing a Hajduk jersey, I’d probably get jumped five times over! So much for the "mentality" of this city! Stay strong, guys, and Andrew White32, sending you love because you don't deserve anything less.😂

You’re bringing up those so-called Boxers from the Demon again, and honestly? I think that’s a hell of a lot more honorable than the pathetic little groups you guys have loitering in front of buildings. If you’ve spent any time hanging out near Vegas, you probably know exactly who I’m talking about, because even though I can't stand those Chicago fanatics, what they do is actually respectable for any sane fan or decent human being—unlike the absolute bottom-of-the-barrel trash you guys pull.👎

Kudos to the facts laid out by Lawrence Walker27, because let's be real, a huge chunk of those old-school legends used to hang out in the local fandom back in the day... honestly, looking at the name East River, I’d bet anything you’re from the Susak area, so why on earth don't you have any love for Orijent? It’s common knowledge that the North side never really had much going for them and you guys never fielded a squad worth respecting, though I'll give credit where it's due to the individuals👍

There’s no way we’re seeing just 300 people because there’s gonna be at least 500 of us showing up, though I wouldn't push it past a million unless you count all those bandwagoners who care more about Hajduk than their own damn club, and honestly, there are enough of those losers around here to fill an entire stadium if you really think about it!😍

I mean, honestly, can these clowns over at the Football Federation actually start serving the sport for once? Instead of just constantly whining and making life difficult, they’re already back at it, claiming games are going to be held at Kantrida—as if we haven't heard this nonsense before. Someone actually had the guts to say that these absolute bottom-feeders running the Cup are basically meeting their requirements on a damn cow pasture, and hey, I guess Istria doesn't meet their "expert" standards today, as per usual!🤷
The Armada in Fans ·
You two are gonna regret this constant back-and-forth, seriously! My suggestion? Why don't you just grab a slice of pizza somewhere and hash it out like adults instead of acting like this?👍,Is Istra actually playing down in San Francisco now, or are we heading over to Kantrida?
The Armada in Fans ·
It’s not even the city I can’t stand, it’s just people like you—absolute lowlifes, seriously. You probably think you're some big shot, acting all tough and local when everyone knows your folks actually hail from Pittsburgh, right? 😂At least I actually take pride in where I come from and that's why I have this connection to nature, unlike you, who just rolls in from the middle of nowhere thinking you're someone special. 😂
The Armada in Fans ·
Man, what an intense atmosphere in the stands today, but seriously, you guys really crossed a line with that rock throwing from the east section—you almost seriously injured someone out there! But hey, I guess we’re just the most hated rivals in the league, right? And since Dynamo is coming up soon, I’m already wondering if we’re going to see more of those ridiculous antics where people act like total clowns whenever they face the "pride of" America!😂

Look, man, if you’ve been around the block for more than 15 years, you’d realize this is our home turf, even if we have to travel further for away games than most of you guys do 249 miles, instead of just being some 5-6.2 miles afterthought. And hey, I actually appreciate that you care about T, and look, I get it—we probably rub a lot of you the wrong way—but if you aren't aware, we’re literally the oldest supporter group in the city😍, running strong since 1983
The Armada in Fans ·
Look, I hit up maybe 10 to 15 games a year, and honestly, half of those are at the Rose Bowl, so if you’re actually happy with that, fine! But hey, if things didn't go my way this season, I swear I'll step it up and show up for at least a few more games next time, okay?😍
The Armada in Fans ·
We had a friendly match today too, and get this—barely 50 people showed up, and that’s assuming they even finished their road trips to get there! Seriously, huge respect to you guys, but maybe put in a little more work when you're playing away from home and then you'll be unstoppable, though if you ask me, you're already the number three team in the league, no matter what anyone else tries to claim.👍
The Armada in Fans ·
Look, if you’ve actually been paying attention to my posts, you know I’m never trashing my hometown—I freaking love this city, okay? But when it comes to those other guys in your hooligan crew, man, they’re a whole different story. I mean, sure, there are a handful of sane people in that group, but most of them? Absolute nightmares. Anyway, stay golden, buddy!🙂
The Armada in Fans ·
What on earth are you even talking about? The guy asked me a question, so I just told him what I saw right there in the USA Today, then some dude decided to correct me and yeah, that was that, end of story. Honestly, it kills me how much people care about which fans belong to which side, because I seriously don't give a damn about anyone else besides our own crew. I love the Kansas City Chiefs, period. I couldn't care less about the rest of them, even if I might have a soft spot for a couple of other teams here and there, but your👍

Ugh, fine, I’ll just apologize then! And honestly? That right there is all the proof you need that you can't trust this new list for anything, especially when such a massive group of people can't even perform a basic task like counting properly, like, for real? 😍
