And what if they finally pulled the plug on this group altogether?
Do you think everyone would actually be happy then?

3. Under the current rules, MLS clubs aren't allowed to sell tickets to anyone currently under a ban or any kind of restraining order preventing them from attending specific club matches or national team games —this also applies to anyone the FBI has flagged under that "Category C" designation for high-risk fans. As the organizers, the clubs are strictly required to implement whatever security measures are necessary to make sure these individuals don't step foot inside the stadium.

If my memory serves me right, I think basically anyone who's ever been slapped with a ban ends up falling into that Category C bucket...

John Campbell27 said:I can't help but wonder why some people in this group seem way more interested in flying out to Greece for a game just to wave a crossed-out head sign. Why is it that so many folks skip the Futsal matches—which, let's face it, this whole group started specifically so we could hang out and have a good time—only to show up regularly in Greece or Vienna? Is showing off at a match in Vienna really more important than the actual Struggle for Real Madrid? When you show up to the stands wearing a Real Madrid jersey, people look at you like you’re some kind of weirdo, yet if you show up rocking a hat or a scarf from Greece, suddenly you're the man. We should probably take a second to rethink whether this is actually the direction we want this group to go. A lot of people used to laugh at those guys and their friendship with the Portuguese... but they aren't actually there nearly as often as the people from our own group are in Greece. Can anyone give me even one solid reason why traveling to Greece to hold up a crossed-out head sign is more vital than, say, showing up for Futsal? 🙂

Based on how you've phrased this, you're making it sound like the crew is heading to Greece every single week.🤦

And then you've got the New York Post claiming there were barely even 100 of us. 🙄

Why on earth are you guys even looking for an excuse?
A loss is a loss, plain and simple.
Nobody gives a damn about who was in the minority or why the kids had to hold the line, or if the away trip was banned or whatever... all that stuff gets forgotten anyway.
I heard quite a few people headed down there despite the bans, so things are probably going to get messy once the courts and the legal system in the States get involved... you might want to set aside a little cash just in case.
We all know exactly who trashed the group, so stop looking everywhere else and point the finger at the real culprit.

"Tickets for both the home stands and the visiting sections for Saturday's match against Dynamo are priced at $40.00. All kids need a ticket to get in, though anyone under 18 won't be allowed through the stadium gates without an adult along for the ride..."

🙏🙏🙏

Rest in peace 😢

Looks like Sector 3 South is already spoken for by the mercenaries again...

So, wait, does that mean this guy actually managed to dodge his ban, or what?
Look, folks, we really need to watch out for provocations here; we can't afford to have half our squad getting banned just because of these idiots.
Just imagine the setup: Rio and the club agreed to let them sit in the same section as us, yet they’re refusing to release the North and West stands for sale due to "security concerns," demanding every single ticket be personalized. They’re even telling kids under 16 who don't have IDs yet that they have to lug around their damn birth certificates or social security papers just to buy a seat. It’s funny, though, because six months ago, the board and Rio were pushing for assigned seating for the exact same reason—safety—just so they could justify putting us in the same stands as them.
That’s honestly what today was all about: trying to stir up the biggest mess possible, sparking a media frenzy against the ultras, and teaming up with the cops to hand out maybe a hundred bans... I mean, just think back to what the group had to deal with after May Day...

Those idiots actually shut down one of the entrances after that whole mess with the hired goons, basically squeezing everyone toward the roundabout. The police were letting the Falcons through because they were clearly panicking as the crowds swelled, and some people even managed to slip in without being searched, but then the cops just bottlenecked everything at the roundabout, holding everyone there for about ten minutes until the group finally broke through the line.
A huge chunk of the crowd got absolutely hammered by tear gas because the cops were basically just dumping canisters onto people since they had no idea how else to control the situation... kids and elderly folks were getting hit too, it was honestly pretty grim to see.

If someone had sat me down a decade ago and told me we’d actually be able to grab tickets for the nosebleed sections online and pick out our exact seats from a screen, I probably would have laughed in their face. 🤣🤣

Sean Morgan34 said:Does anyone happen to know what happens if I’ve already grabbed tickets through Ticketmaster for myself and two buddies, but now I want to pick up two more? Every time I go to buy more, the site keeps defaulting to "me plus guests," which makes things a little confusing. Will it kick me out of the checkout process if I try to buy two more just for myself, or is there some sort of trick to change the settings so I'm just buying them for someone else?

Honestly, you could just try updating your profile info... or, if that seems like too much of a headache, just make a quick new profile using a different email address...

driftingotter47 said:By the end of yesterday, 13,000 people were out the door. 👏 👏

Where on earth are you getting your numbers from?
I mean, considering the folks over at MLB are claiming they only sold about three tickets... :-)

For those of you who aren't based in New York City:

Tickets should be available for purchase online starting tomorrow morning, if everything goes according to plan...

What a complete disaster at Yankee Stadium.
Honestly, I don't think people even grasp the sheer scale of the damage here; even if we could somehow reset everything tomorrow, it’s going to take us at least two years just to get our footing back...
The whole spirit of being a fan in this city has been completely gutted over the last few years... people just don't seem to give a damn about Real Madrid anymore...
But look, we can't just sit there and stay quiet when things are at their worst... the media is already spinning this massive narrative, painting the club as some sort of victim of political maneuvering, acting like it's all some grand conspiracy by old-school radicals or whatever against a great patriot, and the crazy thing is, people are actually swallowing that garbage hook, line, and sinker...

Exactly.
It’s not just about Los Angeles FC, either; we’re looking at the entire future of American soccer... I was actually just reading that they even picked up some referees in custody.
Everyone loves to drone on about these supposed communist conspiracies targeting "patriotic Americans," but just imagine the scene if fans from every corner of the US gathered in a big plaza, waving the stars and stripes and everything. 🙄
And honestly, the schedule couldn't be more perfect:

analogheron19 said:it’s high time someone really gave him a hard time from every possible angle—just crank the pressure up to the absolute max. We need to pack the stands at Yankee Stadium and during those Champions League nights until there isn't an inch of space left. He's more shaken than he's ever been, and honestly, you can see it in the crowd; most fans are clearly ready for his Departure. Besides, we absolutely cannot afford any kind of ridiculous distraction that would end up pulling the spotlight away from the actual criminals.

If people actually showed up to the stadium, half of them would probably end up stuck outside because those blacklists are still being enforced (you know, all that scrutiny at the ticket booths) combined with the usual provocations from the FBI.
But I do think one well-organized protest (the kind everyone's been talking about for years now) would be pretty damn timely...👍

This whole thing really started over a year ago, didn't it? I mean, the wall is just covered in all sorts of nonsense, but they only ever bother covering up the "Jerry Maguire, get out!" stuff with white paint—everything else stays right where it is. It’s pretty telling, actually; they can't even be bothered to put in the effort to actually clean the facade, their only goal is just to hide the message by slapping some white paint over it and calling it a day...

Carl Mitchell45 said:Man, I always had a feeling that guy was going to turn a profit, but even the other one seems to be stepping back... It’s a real shame Ivey isn't part of the group anymore; he was actually a decent guy. Anyway, just stay persistent in the fight, guys, and keep your heads screwed on straight... maybe we'll cross paths again up north sometime.

Word on the street is that the big guy just threw in the towel on everything... though, honestly, does any of it even matter at this point?

Everyone heading to the game this Sunday!!!
