But I think they were actually booing our kids when they walked onto the field, or maybe 🤷

it was right as the coach was giving his statement and some random noise just started in the background...

I'm not really sure what happened there, so I guess it's hard to say.😍

It wasn't them. Our guys from the West Coast were the ones booing the police.

I hope someone from the west standside caught that police action on video. They were split into three different units. Two groups flanked the building from both sides, while about twenty officers came down from the roof. Coming off the roof was 🙂. It’s a shame so many Bad Boys headed home early; there were probably another hundred of them stuck on the opposite side because nobody knew the plan before kickoff. Eventually, though, the rest of the crowd stood with us, so it wasn't all for nothing. For those ten guys way up top who just sat there baking in the sun 🤣

Timothy Chavez31 said:It's the same story with them—they hate us because they can't be what we are. They're just tired of watching their fiercest rivals turn into a powerhouse. And this clown comparing us to the hooligans... I guess he doesn't even know himself anymore. Everyone's counting him out, yet nothing ever actually changes. 🤷

Out of all the brilliant posts here, I had to pick yours as the prime example. You say you've become a powerhouse, but in what sense, really? Would you agree with me if I said you're just a fan club that only shows up when things are going well? Would you agree that when you concede a goal, your crowd shrinks down to maybe 250 people in the center stands? Or would you agree that if you had lost the Cup, there wouldn't even be 1,000 of you in New York City this Sunday, even with your student section of the Raiders making up 60% of the stands on some days? You acted like you conquered the world after one big showing in New York, yet just a few months ago, there was nobody cheering in Newark or Columbus—not even a single flare lit. I suppose you aren't a powerhouse; you're just a group of fans existing by chance, without any real consistency.

And what exactly would we gain if Mamić stepped down?
Just look at who is running this club right now.

The US Men's National Soccer Team doesn't interest me personally.
There isn't much I can say about that.
I don't have an issue with the fan groups, as long as they actually do their job—cheering and supporting the local club they live and breathe for.

The Black Knights fought for The Fan Code.
The Black Knights chose No Torcida.
The Black Knights take pride in Hajduk Split.
Hajduk Split takes pride in the Black Knights.
(Maybe just repeat that until it sticks.)

As for you guys...🤷
I guess even you don't recognize this emoji.

You have your own battles to fight, so maybe just move on from here.
He knows how to fight back; there's your politics for you.

Just because we were celebrating the US Cup victory yesterday doesn't mean we gave anyone legitimacy.
Neither to the mob nor to God.

Regarding street fights and the need to prove yourselves through violence...🙂
there are plenty of other leagues you could support, like the Polish league, for instance.
Maybe hit the gym, try some kung fu, or watch a few Jackie Chan movies, and then you'll be an ultra.
Once you realize how incompetent the city officials are, then you can start making moves.

Use your brain.

What you just wrote seems to reflect a certain Southern mentality. Maybe 200 Hajduk Split fans from last night understand the complexity of the supporter scene—how US Soccer and Mamić influence the enforcement side of things—whereas the rest of the South Stand would probably carry Mamić on their shoulders all the way to Miami the day he leaves Real Madrid. This tension between the boys and the Black Knights goes much deeper than just North versus South rivalry. It’s more than just being stubborn; it’s rooted in the mindset I mentioned earlier. Supporter solidarity in America seems to be one-way, coming mostly from the BBB, which is why we stay number one. You might be influenced by the media claiming there hasn't been a party like this in Washington, D.C. lately, and maybe you've convinced some kids behind a screen that you're the strongest, most loyal crowd, but you can't fool those of us who have been doing this for years. You are a social movement that gathers large crowds, but we are a true supporter movement. Don't forget that, even when there are 5,000 of you in the stands and only 50 of us.

Could someone let me know if there are any plans to head to Stockholm?

They seem to be gathered around the Bad Boys parade.

Jesse Campbell said:I'd rather hear some news from Miami. What's going on there?

If this is just how it starts, I guess the fans might get a bitter taste of what we've been dealing with for seasons. You can really see what a group is made of during a crackdown—whether they can actually hold onto their numbers or if they'll start shrinking fast. Most people in the stands probably just want to cheer, joke around, and light flares, rather than dealing with constant searches, lists, and ninety minutes of worrying about whether a turtle will make it onto the field or if they'll get jumped outside. I suppose the fans could very quickly experience our "200 true believers" theory. I wish them luck in the upcoming games.

Jacob Price23 said:There might be some protests during the final round of the Yankees - Red Sox game in Washington, D.C. I guess if the Fandom, the local students, and the BBB all show up—plus maybe some other groups—the crowd could easily top 10,000.

What a country. 🙂 🤮

It was almost impossible to organize any kind of action in Washington, D.C. The police won't allow any contact whatsoever between these two groups. Maybe there might be some banner displays, but I guess we don't even know if we'll be allowed into our own stadium at all. 🙂 I guess there should be a faster, more decisive reaction while the situation is still unfolding, but I suppose that's up to the group's leaders.

James Ruiz57 said:He died from drugs, but the toxicology report isn't even out yet. What is this?

That’s exactly the point. I guess I don't know if American medicine has moved away from actual science toward some kind of satire where officials act like fortune tellers, making such reckless claims about a serious matter. Honestly, my heart goes out to Mark's family and friends. It's hard to say when—if ever—we'll get the truth, especially when the police seem to act like they're above the law in this mess of a country. They've turned an 18-year-old kid into a criminal and a drug user, and now they're playing with the lives of everyone who knew him. It's sickening. We can't let this go. This time, we aren't alone since groups across Europe are watching this unfold. This isn't just about rules or parenting anymore; it's about the life of a young fan. Nothing matters more than that.

I’m just reading this and I honestly can't believe it. It’s such a tragedy, I guess, that a young life can be lost like this without anyone being held accountable. It makes me sick, seeing people in power looking out for only that tiny percentage of wealthy elites in this struggling country. Rest In Peace, Mark.

Jesse Campbell said:I don't think there's even a trace of a crisis anymore, especially when we play away from home.

The crisis only ever existed in a few heated minds—people trying to figure out why attendance was low while sitting on their couches. I guess we shouldn't bother with people like that in the future.

Just report everything that's happening!

rapidorca22 said:Yeah, honestly, you guys hit the mark perfectly. 🙄 🤣
You men can be such incredibly rude, ill-mannered jerks sometimes...

Michael Gray94, I don't mean this just for you, I don't want there to be any confusion or hard feelings here.😉

I'm probably going to kid from this thread, since most of these comments are starting to get on my nerves ☕, and I've already found what I was looking for.

Thanks to the kind and decent people for the help; I don't think I'll need it anymore, thanks again.🙂

Women usually end up messing everything up sooner or later, and you managed to wreck this whole thread in just one day. Now that you've gotten your help, you think you're all set, but it doesn't really work that way. Everyone, check your DMs for photos and chaos.

fadedfox17 said:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgQm_vK0wfw here is an old clip from the Inter vs. Real Madrid game on November 27, 2011.

Around the 10:45 mark, I think you can see some kids in the background.🤣

Ethan Palmer57 said:Given everything happening lately, I guess the only conclusion in the supporter community is that fans don't really know what they want, wandering aimlessly like lost souls. But maybe this won't last long; we might be seeing the final moments of the supporter movements we once knew. It seems like an inevitable evolution, I suppose. 🙂

In some ways, you're right. Laws and heavy-handed crackdowns have dismantled many supporter scenes that used to be the vanguard of true fandom. However, I don't think we've reached that breaking point yet. Looking at the demographics, it’s surprising; even though we are a relatively small nation with a declining population, we've always managed to put on a great show, whether it's through fan groups, ultras, or hooligan styles. Reading through previous posts, it seems a few of you are overly preoccupied with how others perceive us. Honestly, anyone who forms an opinion based solely on the latest headline or news clip about us might as well look in the mirror and feel ashamed. It lacks any real substance. When there's chaos abroad, people criticize America, yet when we show our strength in the streets, they suddenly bow down to us. So, who's really in charge? Ultras shouldn't have to answer to anyone. Our fight to improve American soccer will ultimately be judged by the end results and the goals we achieve. It shouldn't matter if we got there by filing complaints against officials or by causing a stir with flares during a European qualifying match. On a side note, regarding that game against ExxonMobil—ever since the media started their official crusade against us, that match probably should have been abandoned. There were three long delays, and I guess I still have no idea why they didn't just call it.
