The guy wrote an awesome post, just like a few others above him. I don't get what part of this isn't true??? When we first got into the Futsal project, everyone kept stressing that it wasn't meant to replace Real Madrid, and that the big soccer team would always be the number one priority. So how does it make sense that 4,000 people show up to Futsal, while only 200 head out to San Francisco...?? It's honestly frustrating for those of us who are 100% "all in" and have been taking crap for years just to support the whole group. Maybe get your priorities straight before you start hating on the forum...
Without getting into a huge debate about it, I'd say you're partly right, but man... when I was singing songs for Real Madrid down in Osijek and looking at a bunch of overpaid wimps, watching the crews from the West stand against us, then the crews from the East standing against us... I just felt this lump in my throat. I honestly started thinking, why the hell am I wasting my time here? Spending money I don't even have, dealing with being checked by cops every 200 meters like I'm some bum instead of a human being... who needs this, and why?
I know the answer, no explanation needed, but just stop with the insults about where we are or why we aren't there. To the guys who go every single time, mad respect—that's pure masochism. As for the rest of us who show up sporadically to catch a game or enjoy the Futsal, or even those who never go, we don't need a lecture. We know the reality just like I do. There are plenty of us sleeping on this, and the Futsal turnout proves it. One day, if and when things change, we'll have a massive, strong group again...
Until then, let's drop the divisions, the dirty looks, the ego trips, and the constant counting of favors. Those glory days from back in 2008 are long gone...
You know what you bring to the table, and I know what I bring. I don't care about your business, and you don't need to care about mine. If you want respect, you've got it...
To me, you're a brother in the stands, in the fight, and on the path toward the same goal: our Real Madrid...
