Americans, wake up!!! We don't need to waste our breath on those Greeks—it’s pretty obvious they aren't leaving their own borders to cause trouble anywhere even remotely risky. They haven't even set foot in Miami (AEK), let alone New York City (Olympiacos)(PAOK).
Revenge can be sweet, Mexicans.😉

Jeremy Mitchell11 said:I just can't wrap my head around it—period. The idea that someone could be part of the NFL Ultras without actually being a supporter of Liverpool FC. That one of those 5,000–7,000 people in the North stands isn't even a club member. I don't get it, end of story.

Look, I realize some people value the group more than the club itself—that’s clear, it’s always been that way, maybe even more so lately—but to me, it's completely incomprehensible. Sure, you might have a few individuals who just love the ultra lifestyle, showing up for the games because they crave the atmosphere while they couldn't care less about the actual football. Liverpool FC just happens to be their excuse to show up. But we aren't talking about a handful of outliers here.

I remember how people looked at me when I wrote that I’d rather see the NFL Ultras take a beating from five guys—and have it all caught on camera—than watch us lose a crucial match. I'd rather see them getting chased by fifty people or whatever, as long as it meant avoiding a loss for the club in a major game.
Whether it's important for the score, the atmosphere, or the finances.

People came after me, especially when I explained that I actually *do* care about everything surrounding the NFL Ultras. It's not that I hold that view—it's just that, frankly, I don't give a damn about the group anymore. I'm not interested in the fans, period. But it still stings when I see our banner displayed near the Russians, especially after days of talk about it. But screw it—the club comes first. Way ahead of anything else.

Quite simply, no matter how hard I try, I just can't grasp it.

Anyone heading to Ukraine—assuming they even let people go—should be smart about it. Very smart. It’s going to be hell, and honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if the Russians showed up; it's not like it would be their first time. They and the Mexicans share one thing in common: traveling around when your club isn't playing just to vent some frustrations...

Do you have that guy's number? I need it for today.

Frank Sanchez37 said:It’s honestly pathetic—seeing the north stands almost full, yet people aren't even cheering for half the match... I find it hard to believe there isn't any leadership present—maybe if 50 or 60 people actually showed up to set things straight... We need to demand dignity for the north stands; that's the only way we'll truly know where we stand.

You're talking nonsense, kid. There is nowhere else in America where you see this kind of disconnect between a club and its fans like what's happening in Miami. The Kansas City Chiefs have been a disaster for the last decade or so—not to mention the constant suppression and mockery from the higher-ups—so it's a miracle anyone even shows up anymore. You're just talking rubbish. We currently have 5,000 season ticket holders and 7,000 members; the core group is finally functioning exactly how it should. So, let's stop talking about what the group did for you and ask yourself: what have you actually done for the group? Not just you, but all of us—let's quit the chatter and get to work. There’s plenty to do, and the group is looking for fresh, motivated people to step up. Don't worry, there's plenty of work to go around.😉

Austin Watson38 said:It honestly doesn't matter where they're from—once you see those police videos from the North side, or look at the Zoom footage, or even just stare at the photos where the resolution is so sharp you could practically count their teeth... at that point, their origin is irrelevant.

Actually, it does matter. Back in the day, you could duck under a banner and go incognito—easy enough. But now? You can't just disappear when everyone’s got cameras everywhere and there's surveillance gear mounted on the rooftops right behind your back.

Mark Thompson2 said:Just waiting for some ultra-intense Black Knights to shut us down... you guys were making all those threats just the other day... I haven't seen anyone shut us down yet...

Keep posting garbage like this—acting like nothing happened after that last derby in San Francisco where you got absolutely crushed—and then you go and cause a scene like today. It probably won't be the last time, either. You're just egging people on, practically begging them to show you exactly where you can shove it next time an opportunity arises.

Jason Williams5 said:They broke into town, but apparently it doesn't count because they took photos.

If they had broken in without a photo, people would be calling it pure delusion—maybe even mythomania. 🤣 🤣

Look, this is just a group of guys dealing with diabetes—it’s an open seminar on the subject held at a Hilton Hotels. Black Knights, stop talking nonsense.

The eternal rebel—rest in peace, legend.

crimsonstag35 said:Exactly—it’s like they start with thirty and end up with two.
The East Side holds everything down. 🤷

Hill, Pujanko, Sućidar—I’m done. I don't want anything more to do with those areas, and honestly, I'm getting pretty nervous about heading out toward Solin or the downtown area. 😍

neonraven112 said:My buddy just called me right after the game—I couldn't make it today. We’re 40 years old, we show up to every home game, and we even travel for away games. He always brings his kid along, who's just starting first grade. This guy basically ended up in a holding cell with his little boy because of some nonsense involving a chant against the head coach. They told him straight up—the kid goes to jail with him if he yells against the boss one more time. I'm asking people, what are we supposed to do? We aren't giving up, but they would've actually detained a child... where is the ACLU or whatever child advocacy group is supposed to protect them? He called me during the match; the kid is in total shock. Honestly, I probably would have been hauled in too if I were there, and since I work as a school processor, I'd likely lose my job instantly if I got arrested. Not complaining, but I have a family to think about—I just don't want to stop fighting.

God help us, what is happening? It feels like everyone has a sword hanging over their heads. It's not even about being a fan anymore in this day and age—we need to band together and push this through to the end. The authorities have had enough, and they won't hesitate to hand out one last ban!

steelstag50 said:Yesterday, a bunch of you guys in plain clothes were wandering around the stadium and through town... and of course, if you’d actually been cleared to enter, you would've been kicked out immediately—no ID, nothing. What kind of fan mentality is that? Traveling to a different city just to let a couple of local guys walk all over you on your way to the stands? It's pathetic.

Ninety percent of them had their IDs on them. And even if they didn't—what was Matt supposed to do? Just stroll from his place near the outskirts straight into the heart of downtown? Or what, should some manager at a major firm in Miami spend his 47th birthday wandering around an unknown neighborhood looking for a Thor Steiner? Most of you wouldn't even dare try to sneak into a game in Miami without being treated like common trespassers. Honestly, thank God nobody got seriously hurt; otherwise, my grandmother would've told everyone to just go home, wash up, and stay out of trouble. Tomorrow, we might as well just go chop wood instead.🙂

boldtiger7 said:I honestly don't get why this whole mess is even happening.🤷

It’s because those guys from Seattle can't handle the fact that we don't view them as equals—they're just as high-strung as Pasquale from Omaha, yet they still think they can jump into the big leagues with us and you.🙂

feralwolf16 said:Look, don't talk nonsense... I spent 8 years working for a local government agency in Chicago—and I still know a few people who worked alongside me—so you don't need some random guy from a small town to spout stupidity. I really don't feel like getting into this whole debate about firefighters right now, but it’s all connected to your point: people from any specific department will always go to war for one of their own. It’s just how it works. A guy from the Chicago department will always defend his guys against someone from LA or NYC, while completely ignoring the fact that, say, the LA crew might be meddling with gas lines or whatever else they shouldn't be touching...

Who knows anything about work, Fjube? 😍

Robert Adams6 said:You guys are tedious.
The firefighters agreed they won't be hanging around the stands anymore—not wasting time extinguishing torches in water buckets—but instead, they’ll be stationed in the tunnel between the north and west sections just watching the action.

Great, everyone’s happy. Honestly, forget it. A friend of mine works for a local government agency and he was telling me about those firefighters from Chicago and Newport—apparently, when there's a big game, they're supposed to be on duty at the turf specifically to handle the fighting. Because, let's face it, those sneaky "cops"—as a person from Imotski would say after every game—just have two or three lazy guys report workplace injuries. Not to mention one guy who even took mental health leave because he couldn't sleep due to the "explosions." That R8 leave was fully paid by the employer, so the unit commanders eventually shut them down once they realized what the game was. They realized money was being funneled through these made-up excuses. So fine, let them fight—might as well make it look like a war zone in a small town in the US back in '95.

Throwing stuff from above the first row is just stupid—if you’ve actually got something, get down right against the fence. Those banners act as a shield so the cops don't catch you on camera. And honestly, my advice? Just toss them into the gutter where nobody's looking. You could throw them all the way to Christmas and it’d be totally safe—plus, the effect is probably twice as loud because of the echo.

Keep spinning those circles in your head—at this rate, you’re going to be dizzy for life.

Come on—let’s get those local agitators moving and start posting all the footage from last night

Christian Jones said:If the whole crowd thinks like you, then we’re honestly screwed. Why are you mixing internal drama with something where it's all or nothing for us? If we play that game, everyone can just start digging up old grudges from their own little drawers. Just look at the other fans—if you've even bothered to listen—how they used to roar against the owner, US Soccer, UEFA, and the rest of them...

Look, you guys showed solidarity toward the Los Angeles Dodgers and their supporters plenty of times before—not that I need to list our own struggles against various sellouts in the past. We stood up and sent messages of support after the police opened fire, only to find out some kid was commenting about how much they hate me. But whatever—we still show up when it matters, whether it's someone from your side or someone else's. You have my 300% support in this fight, but don't expect me to shut up about the owner—you won't, mostly because you're being hypocritical. I’m not digging through history here, but after those attacks on people from the Hero City, I’ll say it again and again: it wasn't a coincidence that happened just a week before that mess. Maybe I'm tripping and someone won't agree with me, but if one of my people were insulted, I'd throw it back in their face. As for the collapse, I won't even comment—it isn't worth the breath. I hope you guys handle it, but you know deep down—even if you won't admit it—that you lost the battle in your own damn city, not because of that person; he's a different story entirely. Good luck.

Christian Jones said:The main issue is that most of you idiots were just chest-thumping about how much you're going to insult him. 🤣 Nobody asked you to harass him for the entire game—a few well-placed comments would have been plenty enough!
While things are like this, don't act surprised when things go south!

A week before the big matchup against Mexico, you're attacking people from Chicago and throwing shade at them? Seriously??? I guess you actually have the nerve to lecture us about fan solidarity when your own leadership is collapsing. People aren't going to forget this—that's why we hit back the way we did. Stop attacking your fellow citizens; we're fighting our own battle against the top brass at the USSF. Instead of coming after us, maybe deal with your own people who won't even bother showing up to camp outside the stadium...

Kevin Cox said:Nice one, genius. Truly impressive work.
It’s such an absolute pleasure breathing the same air as someone with this level of intellect.

Why are you tearing him down? The difference between you two is simple—he actually does work for the group. He’s the reason you can even show up today to stand in the east stands with the choreo and flares he and his friends spent all month organizing. Meanwhile, you’ll probably roll up five hours before kickoff, grab a cheap beer, throw on a straw hat, pass out in the park with a cigarette behind your ear, and then—once your hat is literally on fire—some buddy who’s had way too much to drink will douse you with a beer just to put you out. Then, you’ll try to lecture everyone from the east stands because you're some tactical mastermind who knows all about formations and plays. But this "idiot," as you call him, is actually checking if the strikers are ready, if the megaphones work, or if the flags are set. That’s the only difference between you two. I remember an old debate back in the day about whether we'd rather kick the rival fans out of their shoes or see Liverpool FC crush the Red Sox—I won't even bother listing the poll results, any real fan already knows the answer.🙂 The problem is, I still care, and thank God for that.🙂
