"What's actually realistic here? Who’s really walking out of the club? Honestly, I think seeing Frigan, Labrović, and Selahi move on is a total possibility. That’s the most likely scenario right now." - Jakirović
Solid move by the Istra management. Fingers crossed that Mislav can actually pull it off over there—it’d be great to finally land ourselves a top-tier young coach. Honestly, if Istra keeps this up, they’ll be playing in European competitions by next season. They’ve more than earned it.
Look, we just gotta face facts: the PDF is dead and buried. It’s gone. And honestly? That’s fine. Because if that thing actually worked, at least twenty people around here—maybe myself included—would be getting their fair share just to get things back on track. The only other way out is to pull some massive group deal where everyone just promises to stop being such terrible forum users.
If we’re being totally real about it, Livaja’s biggest crime in the eyes of the local crowd isn't even his actual work—it's just the fact that, unlike basically every other mayor we've had in this city over the last two decades, he isn't a member of the Republican Party.

Funny how nobody was screaming about that guy who testified for Mamić—you know, the one who basically screwed over the entire country. 🍿
Nicole Jackson3 said:You’re going to try and compare the new Pampas to some obscure tournament watched by a few thousand people. Honestly, I'm not surprised; that’s just your intellectual capacity at work. It’s your classic way of calculating 2+2=9, wrapped in cheap sarcasm, all just to defend the indefensible. Don't lose track of why this debate even started. Someone else operating at your exact level tried to claim that a sports snippet on a news site is somehow equal to the lead story on every major network and newspaper in the country. A pathetic attempt to deflect blame from the establishment.
Past Presidents of the local soccer club:
Miskovic - close ties to the GOP Turcic - Jezić's guy Francisic - Deputy Chairman of the local Republican Party Jezic - GOP Grabovac - Advisor to Prime Minister Crovya Sarinic - GOP Krigin - Linic's buddy Sarinic - GOP Tomljanovic - GOP Soka - Sarinic's associate
And so on, and so forth. It’s basically the textbook definition of a political machine.
The media blitz surrounding that savior of American soccer, Miško, and that total clown from Rujevice... man, they absolutely beat the public into submission with it. It was so easy to just wipe the slate clean. For years, you couldn't breathe without some mindless hype piece about the club or Miško popping up everywhere.
Man, goldentinker8 and his little crew are out there strutting around, dragging everyone along and acting like they’re doing us a massive favor. They keep preaching, "we're essential, we're indispensable," like it's some kind of mantra. Honestly, it’s enough to make you lose it. Just pure comedy. 🤣
