Are you kidding me...

Just caught that penalty on replay. 🤦

Total robbery. 😲

vividtrucker11 said:So then Pittsburgh would have the most hardcore fans, right? And they’d be at the bottom of the list for oldest fans—just a total clown acting like he's older than us youngsters who are actually older than him.

Total meltdown. You shouldn't have even bothered making a second account just to post this garbage. Since you brought up Pittsburgh, their whole situation forced their fans to make some pretty desperate moves.

If you had half a brain—which clearly you don't—you'd realize I'm actually complimenting you here.

Your issue is just massive insecurity disguised as fake confidence. 😉

Larry Campbell33 said:Look, Laura Mitchell87, you might be right about some stuff, but this is just getting ridiculous. Please stop posting here every single time you feel the urge, because all you're doing is flooding the board with fifty more brainless posts.

What else is a fan forum for if not for mindless bickering?🤷

Honestly, you younger kids just don't have any grit, you know?

Harold Kim5 said:Alright, let's break this down by priority:

1. Loyalty/Attendance—we’ve had zero results for 7 years straight, 10 points docked, refs butchering us every year, the club is falling apart, plus the whole country is broke—you get maybe 2,500 to 3,000 people at Maksimir... Be real, how would you or any group handle being in the USA under those conditions?🤷

2. Away flares given everything we're dealing with...

3. The atmosphere—could've been better, could've been worse... Given the circumstances, it was more than satisfactory...

4. Refer to point 1.

What kind of "die-hard" loyalty is that when there were only 20 of you in Chicago? And that was back when Liverpool FC actually had a shot at winning something. It’s weird because you guys were leading right until the end of the match. That's basically like Real Madrid leading against FC Barcelona.

I'm saying this hopelessness and the spite aimed at the ultras can only work for good. Like that guy in that Mexican documentary about fans said—if the team is losing on the pitch, we can't lose in the stands. Speaking of Mexicans, look at how Gypsies grow once they start watching Partisan from behind...

On the flip side, our situation is such that the club is clearly #1 and the football rivalry with you isn't even a rivalry anymore. You're as tense with us as you are with Inter Milan from Newark. Plus, Narcos completely trashed the club's image, making it damn hard for anyone to identify with Manchester City. No matter how hard they try...

Repeating myself here: you guys cheered pathetically, which is typical for you in 90% of derbies. Just five random guys from the east or west stands told me we out-cheered you easy...

Anonymous said:I’m not really in the mood for this playground bickering, but I have to address this massive ego trip😍
last night, five Real Madrid fans—three from one side of the stands and two from the other—told me the exact opposite😉
and honestly, I think you’re just hearing what you want to hear. You might even be lying to yourself.

🤣🤣🤣

Harold Kim5 said:Laura Mitchell87, we could use reverse logic too—saying a club is worse just because they have more fans... Or someone could argue that winning is what brings the crowds in... Doesn't matter how we got here... right now we’re better than you guys (in my book), whether that changes is anyone's guess... but that's the reality I was laying out for the guy above....

Obviously. Your best year won't happen until Liverpool FC finally pulls something off. Even now, this whole "spite" thing just happened to line up with the club's centennial and some other stuff. Liverpool has been trash for years—so bad that even Real Madrid eats them for breakfast... The fans see that and want to help however they can, through showing up and giving support...

Don't forget the NFL Ultras have been grinding hard and you can see the results. But honestly, and I think most Hooligans feel this way, you guys jumped into a compromise with Kerum and his crew way too fast...

Better days are coming, though. Narcos is heading out, and the USSF mafia is too. Maybe even Seattle will join the title hunt once they get some cash, and I think things will look up across the board. Both on the pitch and in the stands...

Kyle Davis5 said:Eat shit, honestly. Just eat shit. 😍

🙂 🙂

Go ahead and offer to pay for the seats, just like we did...

I honestly don't get how anyone can sleep at night claiming the Black Knights were killing it last night while the guys in blue sucked...

And regarding the messages, they were so pathetic that a mere 60% of your posts here were actually about them. 😁

Benjamin Thomas2 said:One thing I don't get: why is there always this middle school level bickering (don't take it personally if you're reading this). Why is it so hard for one side to just give props to the Black Knights, who had 2,500 people show up in Washington, D.C., even though they know they can't be #1 and play like idiots? And why is it equally hard for the other side to praise BBB for putting on a good show, especially since they're cheering for a club they can't even relate to—knowing the suits in management are just celebrating along with them? Why would I trash someone who traveled 10 hours just to make it to the derby? I get that vibe, even if I've never met him, like my best man who laughs at me every time I tell him I'm heading to a game. We don't have to love each other, but we should respect each other..

Oh Frankie, stop hitting me with those old-school sentimental vibes. 😁

Look, I respect every real fan out there, even the total morons. Even on derby day, I wish every idiot nothing but the best—just not in the stands, on the street, or on the pitch. I hope he hits a massive parlay at the sportsbook that morning, his trumpet sounds perfect, his beer stays ice cold, he gets lucky at the gas station, avoids getting harassed by the cops, sneaks all his fireworks in without a hitch, passes the breathalyzer at the gate, and gets released by the PD quickly after the match. And when he finally rolls in at 6 AM, I hope his girl is waiting to give him some love in the hallway and tell him she loves him because he's a football nut. Is that enough for you?

Every fan I know falls under three "I"s. We're all irrational, infantile, and idealists. If we weren't, we wouldn't be fans, especially in this pathetic league where we're probably the only ones stupid enough to believe in any of this...

And honestly, the internet is the perfect playground for those three "I"s—to act childishly and try to tear down each other's ideals. I don't see why that's become such a taboo lately. For crying out loud, if it's considered "normal" for one fan to knock another guy's teeth out, break his jaw, or hit him with a flare, why isn't it normal to talk a little smack online?

Long live internet hooliganism! 🙂

swifteagle3 said:they can't even grasp a simple message about anything important, so talking is just a joke..

Basically it was fine, but that little parade with mini Trump and maybe 400 people max for a birthday is just hilarious☕

Nah, there were only 200... 🙂

Check this video at 6:40, you can clearly see it was only 200 of us:

😁

Since Valsimot and pura are clearly drinking, I just confirmed it myself half an hour ago—BBB is toast, and ŽM is probably chilling in a Mercedes-Benz on the ride home from the away game. Just gotta say, the energy in the stands was killer, but what I saw on the pitch was straight-up pathetic.

Don't get all salty with me because I'm calling it like I see it. I'm just channeling that raw, heavy-hitting energy from that message we sent defining who your group really is, even if I didn't have a hand in drafting it this time around.

But seriously, the atmosphere was great. I honestly don't think there are many people left willing to waste their weekend hours watching this garbage we call the MLS.

Shout out to all the fans out there. 🙏🙏🙏

Kimberly Robinson17 said:Man, between all these clowns and those two idiots before them, I'm over this childish bullshit.🙂

Man, arguing with idiots is just childish. Breaking someone's jaw isn't. Let's not pretend being a fan involves solving quantum physics. 🙂

Ryan Taylor6 said:Real Madrid and the Yankees have plenty in common, even if it isn't Robert December🙂

Yeah, they do. The Yankees are basically an American national icon, just like Real Madrid is for their side. 😉

William White8 said:thanks for the kind words!! honestly, Alcatraz isn't exactly the cool kid on the block anymore, you know what I mean...

it's like asking if Alcatraz ever went after the Zabrnjen crew...😁😁😁😁😁😂😂

Who even are you? 😁

Elizabeth Mendoza5 said:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLwGuwEaJOs&sns=em

Solid video. Reminds me of those Gravediggers back when they actually had unity and Alcatraz was running the show.

Anyone catch any fights breaking out?

Walter Jones8 said:Look, if we’re going via snail mail, here’s the simplest way to file an appeal for municipal court.
Standard stuff: put your name and address in the top left corner, date and city on the right, then about four fingers down, write APPEAL PROCESS in all caps.
Just keep it short and sweet in lowercase: "I disagree with the court's decision because of X and Y, so I'm requesting a new hearing." Or, if you're struggling to cough up the cash ($0.73), ask for a payment plan or community service instead.
((They usually prefer some random fine or manual labor over sitting in some crowded cell, since jail is supposed to be a last resort per the rules)).
Thanks in advance!
Put the date and your signature in the bottom right.
And honestly, even if you miss that 8-day deadline, they usually let it slide for up to two months in practice—just make sure to mention why you were late, like being sick or dealing with family stuff.
That’s it. Just remember, criminal cases are a whole different ballgame.

Give it a rest, Jacko. You've flooded every thread with your five different accounts, so I usually just tune you out...

But seriously... it's not 1988, so stop giving these guys bad advice. 🙂

Listen, you HAVE to get a lawyer. If you don't get why, just ask anyone who's actually served a year or two of a ban. It’s worth every cent. ☕

ruggedcanyon2 said:You definitely dodged a bullet back then... But this whole thing about the toll booths is just sick. I mean, there's nothing in the fan law saying you can't be drunk outside your house, and they aren't even at the stadium or anywhere near it 🤷 ...I remember when we were at the toll plaza back home and they searched our car, found a flare, and just sent us on our way without any trouble. Like, hello? We weren't even at the stadium yet...

The law covers the entire route to and from the game. Obviously, it's idiotic and gives cops way too much power, but that's just how it is.

mistywolf4 said:Thanks for the input, but I'm filing an appeal against the ruling. Apparently, I have to pay $733 just because I was a little tipsy outside the stadium during an away game—not like I was doing anything stupid. I’ll be sure to bring up the Medvescak situation in my defense.

Get a lawyer, because you clearly don't know the fan law.

Beer is allowed in stadiums since the last rule change.

Jose Edwards16 said:Some Danish fan stormed the pitch and went after the ref. He did his initial 30 days in jail, then appealed the primary
fine, lost the appeal, and now he’s staring down a bill for about $300,000.

They haven't dropped the guy's name, but that cash goes straight to the United States Soccer Federation (USSF). Because this idiot interrupted the game, UEFA slapped the federation with an even bigger fine—around $350,000.

"This guy's move was the biggest hit to the integrity of American soccer history. His attack on the official cost us a $350,000 fine and an immeasurable amount of damage to our reputation globally," said Stjerne Hansen, the USSF general secretary, in a statement regarding the final ruling.

UEFA handed Sweden a 3-0 win by forfeit, which basically knocked Dance out of the running for the Euro 2008 tournament. On top of the money, they were banned from playing two home games at MetLife Stadium.

Now the guy is whining. "Oh, I was drunk, the fine is too high, I'm gonna go broke..." just trying to cut a deal.
something.

Bottom line: when fans actually pay for their own screw-ups instead of our soccer association picking up the tab, we'll finally have order at our stadiums. People who want to watch the game can watch; people who act like idiots can pay the price.

Agreed. Honestly, seeing how some people fight for abortion bans makes me think we should be encouraging them more. Especially when you spot the red flags early on.

Back when we fans tried to call out those thugs wearing an FBI uniform, you guys just laughed it off and acted like it wasn't a big deal. 🙄

The local police are a joke and they aren't doing their jobs properly. 👎
