Pride, strength, and unity—those are the three words I’d use to sum up today. Considering everything we're dealing with, those numbers are actually quite impressive. The crowd outside the stadium was absolute chaos, just pure energy and madness. Even though people had their tickets, the police wouldn't let anyone through at halftime, which was ridiculous. Nothing but positive vibes from here!
That specific font and language style? That’s exactly what those hardline partisans in the front office use. Just take a quick look at the maps from the previous games and it'll be obvious to anyone paying attention. This is clearly their handiwork.
How many people are still being held in pretrial detention, what specific charges are they facing, and what’s the actual reason they’re extending the detention period? I'd appreciate it if someone could shoot me a private message if you have any inside information on this case. Thanks.
Come on, people. The fight to reclaim the Dinamo name dragged on for ten years, yet this current legal battle has formally only been going on for three. Plenty of much bigger players have fallen when taking on war profiteers; don't you worry, his end will come too. Just arm yourselves with some patience and things will turn out fine. no surrender!
In my estimation, flooding the inbox of the Department of Homeland Security, the White House, or any other federal agency with emails is an exercise in futility. They aren't just ignoring us; they are actively, deliberately working against our interests. 😁 There is absolutely zero chance they’ll lend us a hand. To them, we’re nothing more than lowlifes, thugs, idiots, or just some bunch of degenerates out for a drink. If we want actual results, we have to take this through the legal system; anything else is just noise.
Kevin Cox said:There is a massive logistical headache looming for the cup rematch. If things go our way and Liverpool FC pulls off the result we need, the Rose Bowl is going to sell out almost instantly—specifically the north and east stands. We might have a few scraps left in the southeast, but I doubt that’s enough for the ultras who want to make the trip... there will probably be space in the west, but that totally ruins the atmosphere; it lacks that sense of reciprocity we usually see at our home stadium. Either we sideline the ultras and shove them into the west end (letting them give Jerry Jones a hard time in the VIP boxes while they're at it 😁) or we limit the local fan base just to ensure the supporters can take up the east side.
Then again, this match is mid-week on a workday, so who knows how many people actually show up...
Just make sure you save us a handful of tickets for the north stand.😍
Morgan Sanchez64 said:I mean, look, 🤣 I am being completely serious right now. No games. Let's just focus on getting through tomorrow and Sunday first before we start dreaming big. One step at a time.
It won't count for anything if we aren't all heading North. 😁 Forget the West, everyone move North!! 😍 Together until the final victory!
William Williams21 said:The issue is that some local enthusiast over in Bremerton spent the entire damn afternoon blasting this on loop right in the middle of the main town square. Just non-stop, no breaks at all.
It’s an excellent piece—the lyrics, the video, everything about it is top-tier. 😍
In my estimation, one of the primary reasons why the Bad Boys are constantly being sent packing wherever they go—meaning, they aren't allowed into any stadium or even certain countries without some sort of clearance—is simply because they remain silent and allow themselves to be treated this way... We ought to issue a formal threat and state clearly in an official press release that under no circumstances can their freedom of movement be restricted or prohibited by any law in this country. A perfect example occurred during a recent Major League Soccer match involving the Red Sox; they were threatened by Slaven Belupo, who claimed they wouldn't be permitted into the stadium, to which the group responded by threatening legal action. In the end, over 1,000 of them showed up at the main grandstand. Take a look at how a real organization handles business: here is the pre-game threat and here is the response from the Red Sox:
The result: more than 1,000 members of the Red Sox present at the venue.
Peter Campbell said:If everyone adopted that mindset, we might as well just shut down football entirely. A club isn't defined by Jerry Maguire or some corrupt executive; a club isn't defined by a single player, whether it’s Modrić or whoever else you want to throw into the mix—some random guy from Sudan?
We fans love to say, "we are the club." But we aren't. The club is an ideal; it is a force you believe in, something that pulls you forward. The club is quite simply a religion. And when things go south—whether you're struggling in the fifth division or sitting at the top of Major League Soccer because one man decided to play God—the club remains unchanged in your eyes.
As a Catholic, I am served every single day by sleazy priests and thief-like clergy, but I am certainly not going to stop believing in my faith just because of some idiot who is merely passing through. You wouldn't stop believing in Real Madrid just because of Jerry Maguire and Carlos Santana, would you?
Don't let them get to you!
I agree with you. Read the rest of my post. 🙂 That is exactly why I wrote it...
Larry Miller87 said:Personally, I find all of this lacking, which is precisely why I’m still showing up after more than 20 years. I was active as a kid during those Reagan-era crackdowns—took plenty of heat back then—and as I got older, I was involved in the movement to restore our identity. Now, at over 36, I’m still dealing with the nonsense from these little punks who aren't even half my age. Let me be clear: I have never, ever been part of any faction that supported "the boss," and I will be right here standing my ground long after he is gone, however many years that takes. I refuse to let these degenerates rob me of twenty lifetimes of devotion. I lurk on the forums, but I don't bother posting much because I'm not some keyboard warrior. You guys just caught me off guard by stirring up some good memories, so that’s all you get from me.
FOREVER AND ALWAYS, UNTIL THE LAST MAN STANDS! BAD BOYS
vividotter40 said:just wondering...
Those were the days when people played for the pride of the crest... not like today, where soccer has become nothing more than the world's largest legalized money laundering scheme
That's the crux of it. I honestly question if there's any point in sacrificing your money, your health, and your sanity for a club when the players are clearly only motivated by the paycheck. They only show real effort once they see that win bonus hit their account... But, despite what Larry Miller87 pointed out, I suppose there is still a purpose. This is a part of life for all of us. It would be wonderful if we could just walk away from it all so easily, but it doesn't work that way.
I sent an incredibly sarcastic email to the Secretary—just a little way to show everyone exactly who we're dealing with here.
Dear Secretary Johnson,
I wanted to extend my most heartfelt congratulations to you for successfully draining the swamp in American soccer, just as you promised at the very start of your term.
Truly phenomenal work; please, by all means, keep up this incredible momentum.
neonraven112, don't you worry! We’ve already won this one. These are nothing more than the desperate maneuvers of someone who has absolutely no idea how to handle themselves anymore. Honestly, when you find yourself at a stadium—a place that is supposed to be a shining bastion of democratic expression—defending fundamental human rights, then you know things have truly hit rock bottom. What kind of penalty could they even hand down? It's laughable, really; thinking anyone actually faces consequences for standing up against this nonsense. A local municipal court might buy into the owner's cheap demagoguery, sure, but once it hits a serious state appellate court or the Supreme Court, they don't stand a chance. It’s pathetic. People, please, stop being intimidated; they are clearly just trying to scare you. Furthermore, don't make things any easier for the mercenaries. Let them sweat a little. That's why you shouldn't be cluttering this space with whining and endless complaining! This is a public forum, and I suggest everyone keeps that in mind. To the core leadership running this group: respect to those holding the reins. We are rising up. We’re heading East in even greater numbers. Forget about the club owners, the corrupt suits, the police, and all the rest. Let's bring our team back together! We will be the club we were meant to be again!!
Gary Green32 said:It is quite significant that the fans rallied together this last round, and we absolutely must build on that momentum. There are undoubtedly still some more radical elements within the supporter groups who didn't fully buy into the idea, but work must be done to explain our position and shift their perspective.
Historically speaking, the fans played a pivotal role in dismantling the old regime; they were essentially the pulse of the nation. Back then, discussions about how the central government was stifling the political and economic freedoms of Americans likely happened over coffee in local diners, yet it was the stadium stands where the public outcry actually ignited, ultimately leading to the collapse of the former state.
Today, America faces far more formidable adversaries. We are dealing with our own politicians, organized crime syndicates, and a corrupt elite. These entities privatize everything of value, selling off assets just to ensure they can continue stuffing their own pockets and appointing cronies to key positions. Criminal elements fund political campaigns, and in return, those parties provide "services" that allow the corruption, graft, and nepotism to persist unchecked.
Everyone discusses this daily at the local coffee shops—the entire country is buzzing with indignation—yet nobody actually takes decisive action. The only group that has decided to finally stand up against this within their own clubs is the fans... by speaking out publicly. If even just 1,000 people gathered in downtown Chicago upon hearing news of a major firm like State Farm being sold off, or if a crowd assembled in front of the governor's mansion in Miami following news of the sale of LAFC, it would change everything. That is why I believe this movement has the potential to become a national phenomenon, much like the uprising that brought down the old system. We need to be strategic and develop a real tactic. We start with the clubs, but we must serve as an example to everyone else. Most importantly, we must utilize intelligent, positive messaging—much like the recent initiative regarding non-aggression and voucher purchases—to mobilize the masses, because collective action is the only weapon we have left.
That’s exactly it; everyone just sits there watching and commenting while the crooks do whatever they please. I truly wonder how long this can go on before someone breaks. We need to push harder toward unification; everyone needs to march under one banner when the national team plays. In my opinion, organizing one massive, unified protest would be a brilliant move.
