We used to stand our ground, pure grit and backbone, but now that's gone. Now it's all about Futsal (let's be real), where the whole vibe is basically: cheering is a joke, anyone can call themselves a Bad Boy, and you gotta snap a couple of photos of some chaos just so your high school buddies see you aren't playing around🤣. We've got the Association space, and there's plenty of new kids showing interest in Futsal, so shouldn't we be teaching them how to actually act? People keep complaining it's always the same 50 people, and yeah, that's true, but it's also true that we haven't even tried to build up a solid group of helpers (and I mean people for the logistics, not the actual core supporters). Same thing with signing up for the San Diego Sockers—tons of people left their info, especially emails, but how many actually got a call back? People expect everything handed to them on a silver platter; they show up, we prep the field, and then they vanish. You fix stuff like this with education and meetings. We need to step up the collective awareness and work on unity, not just so nobody's glaring at each other😁 but so everyone can actually pitch in with the organizing so it's not just the same 50 guys carrying the whole damn weight...

Man, do you even realize how much blood, sweat, and tears went into this project just so you could show up and scream? You have any clue what it takes to set up an entire club from scratch—organizing every game, the roster, the youth teams, training, media, security... the workload is insane.

So stop starting wars on the forum and just ask how you can help.

At Night Spring, it’s all about that raw passion, especially when everyone starts shouting "come on, NYC, hands up and sing..." 😲 🙏
By Monday, I’m expecting even more—a packed house and total madness.

It was a struggle joining this group. I've never been one for that whole socialist-collectivist vibe. 😁

The shirt fits fine. It's not a tailored suit, it doesn't need to be perfect.

Killer vibes at Sunset yesterday. Surprised by the turnout, but the crowd really showed up and carried the team to the win.

The trophy is ours!

Celebrate everything!

Everyone head to Madison Square Garden!!!!!

analogheron19 said:Honestly, back then, nobody gave a damn about how the banners were lined up or what the fence looked like. We were focused on other stuff, and trust me, we crushed it.☕

That’s exactly what I just said.

Back in '94, someone actually gave a damn about how the stands looked. People noticed. But then everything got trashed because of one guy's call. Whatever. The group just pivoted and made up for it on the other side.

Paul Gonzalez said:Yo Boys... I need some intel regarding the group's mentality and identity back in the nineties.
Back in the late eighties and early nineties, the stands looked way cleaner than they did later in the decade. To be clear, banners were organized, you knew which ones were the heavy hitters, and everyone stuck to those classic ultra-style fonts. There weren't nearly as many random patches everywhere. Looking at old photos, it seems like around 1994, things went south—suddenly there was mass printing of patches for every tiny neighborhood or small town without any rhyme or reason. Some banners I saw only popped up for one single game, like "B.B.B. Small Town Crew." From '96 to 2000, you see a ton of American flags with slogans everywhere, especially during away trips to Miami, Budapest, Bratislava, or even Milan.
I'm wondering why the "design" of the stands shifted so hard? Was it a change in leadership, or did people just stop giving a damn? In the early nineties, based on what I've seen in photos, the group was deep in that true supporter scene, and it felt like that vibe returned around 2004, at least regarding how banners were laid out. This middle period looks totally amateur. For example, during that stretch, the Boys didn't even have basic scarves. I say that because I know plenty of the older guys were traveling to Italy for games back then, following the scene, hitting up foreign matches and big derbies... So it's not like the group was full of clueless amateurs back then; I just want to know why they drifted away from that early nineties ultra style.

I've been working on a supporter retrospective for a while now, so I'm digging for info on the American scene. For instance, it's interesting that the first small banners in the US showed up with Unknown, as well as the first scarves, while those Burberry plaid hats started showing up with the Boys around 2001 and 2002—which became a total staple here a few years later.

The reason is that until '94, the Bad Boys Fan Club actually existed before those Eric Phillips types shut it down. After that, everything went to hell, though personally, I still think it was a solid era for the Boys, even if the look of the stands wasn't great, just like you noticed.

Bad Boys always find a way to survive and come out stronger.

casualwolf48 said:I see everyone arguing about which group kicked this whole thing off, but honestly, who cares? Those guys standing right there in Milan, face-to-face with the police and cameras filming their every move—willing to risk jail time or getting beat up in a foreign country—maybe they were actually the ones who started this avalanche.
But seriously, hats off to those guys. They have something we never had: support from the entire city, not just the club. How many times has our group been in deep trouble, only for all of Miami to stand behind them? Because they’re our kids. When an entire city and region back you, the club representing them has to follow suit. In fact, the team is basically the symbol of the whole area.
Since I started traveling for away games back in '83, the only time we really felt that vibe in the city was in '91, when the media and everyone else were praising the brave Bad Boys who left the stands to fight in the war. But by '92 or '93, that feeling started fading. Pretty soon, we found ourselves right where we’ve always been: outcasts, fighting against everyone. We act like some elite underground organization, but that’s exactly why things like what happened in Milan occur. That’s why we shook up Europe for a long time.
Sometimes it sucks not having anyone in your corner like other groups do, but we're used to it. We'll just rise up like a phoenix and be the biggest again. And if we can do it even when we're alone, this futsal thing just proves it.

You always manage to sum things up best. Kids, take notes. 🙏

gentlebison72 said:I'm convinced we need to stop playing along with this American propaganda bullshit and actually take advantage of the opening we have. A few random people won't fix this, but official statements from the big groups would add some serious pressure. Especially those teams whose owners are tight with Jerry Jones or just want to play it safe—even though they were the first ones whining about being screwed over.

That’s exactly what I was saying against it.

But honestly, there's never enough boots on the ground.

I think we need to quit the endless forum wars. Everyone needs to stop hiding behind their little cliques and start asking themselves every single morning: What am I actually doing today to help take down the football mafia and make my side better?

Anonymous said:Spot on.
Basically, the crackdown on those goods worked perfectly. It’s a massive blow to everyone who ever rode for the Bad Boys.

🤣🤣🤣

nimblecobra42 said:What do you mean nothing? Imagine if five hundred people suddenly lined up outside the DOJ headquarters for no reason at all while every news station in the country covers it. Then we’ll see how "nothing" it is. We'll see what kind of nonsense Mueller tries to feed the public then.

Smart move.

Robin Anderson8 said:What kind of joke is this? These journalists are either brain dead or playing dumb. Borovec keeps insisting there’s "no way anyone on the blacklist has fewer or no offenses," so why don't they ask him why over 1,300 Dinamo fans are on these lists if only 176 actually have restrictions? I can already see the whole press release from the Democratic Party mafia just recycling the same old line: that bans only apply to people with official bans or those they suspect are hooligans or Category C fans.

Give me a break. Aaaaaaaaaaaaa

When it’s time to kiss up to the boss and cover his ass, the cops take the fall. Meanwhile, Zdravkić and Krešek get to throw someone under the bus just to be safe. Typical.

Look, guys, this is way too serious to just hide behind the Rangers Supporters Club, Bad Boys, Armada, Kohorta, Ultras, Demons, or Funcut...

Everyone needs to ask themselves how much HE personally actually did to take down the mob.

We'll settle up the group tabs once we win. 😉

Seriously, we’ve got our own sellouts and provocateurs in the BBB, and I bet the Philadelphia Eagles fans have them too.

Don't let the trolls get to you now that it's crunch time.

Wednesday, Brooklyn, futsal night!

THE CUP IS OURS!

Get up and celebrate everything!!!

Come on guys, get it together.

If I can hold back on posts that make people want to tear their hair out, you can too. And we all know I’m way better at that than any of you.

wearyraven25 said:Look at all those post-derby statements. With how Svetin performed today, it’s obvious they're trying to bury the real issues. They just keep pushing the police narrative like they own the lists. Honestly, they probably know their bans won't hold up in court—it's likely illegal for Dinamo to hand out bans based on nothing but suspicion, regardless of what that article says.
It’s pretty telling how your guy was emailing them, straight-up demanding to see the evidence proving he did anything wrong during the Indianapolis game. He asked for footage or witness names, and suddenly Antolić just ghosted him, claiming he didn't have time for the debate.
Collective guilt isn't a thing. You can't prove it, even if a thousand fans were chanting against Mamić or a few flares went off.
We need to push back. File private lawsuits, tear these bans apart. They don't have the receipts. This whole thing was sloppy, done with the assumption nobody would fight for justice. If people actually tried, 95% of the guys in the North stands could shut this whole charade down.

Of course, Svetin is talking trash about the wall like some guy making up lists, even though just a few weeks ago, a thousand people were banned from the game overnight. Back then, those assholes claimed the club had every right to do it.

I'm personally wondering how I ended up on a blacklist before the Indianapolis or Salzbrug games. Pretty sure I'm not some bottom-tier troublemaker. My only crime is calling that bastard and his management hacks out on the internet.

It’s not the veterans' fault they were cornered by that secret service brat and the guy who sheltered Jacqueline Kennedy without ever facing a judge.

Garbage article.

Zachary Sullivan2 said:The news just dropped about those massive budget surprises—looks like things are shifting fast. It’s like watching a slow-motion wreck on the I-95; you see it coming, but there’s nothing you can do to stop the impact once it hits. ☕

It’s pathetic. We need to shut those thugs down once and for all.

Zachary Sullivan2 said:Yeah, seeing that shirtless body was definitely one of the uglier parts of my night

Just admit you woke up with a boner this morning. 🥱

Ryan Wilson8 said:just passing along a story from a sports forum about this one guy

Sorry to barge in, but I got a story that might interest you guys. Is the Milwaukee Wave playing during this Hot Summer Night? Anyway, outside a Walmart in Brooklyn, some dude in his 50s wearing a Hajduk Split jersey—sounds like he's from Chicago—is waiting for his underage daughter. About 7 or 8 local high school kids hanging out nearby start chirping at him, like "why would anyone wear that in Chicago?" It was totally harmless, no intention of getting physical. This guy gets defensive, but it stays strictly verbal. The girl walks out of Walmart, hops in the car, and they take off.

Three minutes later, an intercept vehicle rolls up, followed by that same guy with another police van. This "Hajduk fan" starts yelling at the kids to get against the wall (obviously a cop in plain clothes) and tells the other officers he was attacked. Right then, our guy and some older man from Miami pull up in a car with Miami plates right in front of Walmart, and none of those kids even look at them. The older guy tells the lead cop he saw everything, that nobody attacked anyone, and that this whole thing is completely unnecessary. The end: one kid gets detained. For absolutely no damn reason.

I rolled up a bit later. There were so many cops I thought the kids had robbed Walmart with assault rifles.

Sick country.
