In case you missed this:
"If you want to volunteer for the Go Team initiative, reach out to us at zanasdinamo@gmail.com. Thanks, everyone!"
They’ll probably just send back a form, but since their inbox is likely getting slammed, just include your full name, address, and cell number right away. (That's what they'll ask for eventually.)

If you're based in Chicago, check in immediately to see how many people from your neighborhood have stepped up. We don't need twenty people in one block all collecting signatures while others get left out—though, honestly, I suppose more hands are better than none if someone slips through the cracks.

Daniel Carter9 said:And why on earth would anyone even want that?From a fan perspective, it just doesn't make any sense.

No sane fan would ever sign off on this. This has crossed every line of decency. When you're talking about a group that hunts down kids on the streets of Washington, D.C., and orchestrates everything from their dirty tactics to those pathetic banners—it’s just low. I have zero sympathy for them.
You people are either delusional if you're actually supporting him, or you're just trying to build some kind of imaginary moral high ground. It's laughable.

slyeagle512 said:There’s nothing lower than a fan calling for a penalty against someone else—even when those people are nothing more than paid mercenaries.

Give me a break. 😕 So we’re supposed to lecture them about honor and trust? That’s my line? Please. Half these guys are already on some blacklist anyway. If the owner just makes a few phone calls, they’ll walk right through the stadium gates like they own the place. So where exactly is the problem?
How many of our own—myself included—fell for the same idiocy and now find themselves banned from the stadium? And because of that, I’m somehow expected to feel some sense of fan solidarity with them? Give me a break.

I couldn't even muster a laugh at this. You’re the only one sitting here playing the sympathizer, wishing them well while they continue to gut everything our group stands for.

Charles Phillips13 said:how can you people be this blind?

Four goals in 25 minutes in the league, then zero goals in 180 minutes in the cup without a single decent chance. 🤷

Even a penalty visible from a plane wouldn't have been called for LA Galaxy. Only that clown Christian Pulisic complained, but I guess he didn't quite grasp the situation when they were explaining the "tactics" to him. 😁

Let's be honest here: aside from those 50 who folded at the Rose Bowl and maybe a few others, how many of you are actually following this? 🙂

Black Knights against Portland Timbers 👍 It looks like there are only two sides left in this fight, though I don't know if there was ever any doubt about that. 😕

So, I’ve been wondering—did any of those hired goons actually get hauled in for throwing flares? (Yeah, yeah, I know, ridiculous question 🤣 🤣 )
But even with thirty of them out there, it’s blindingly obvious who pulled the trigger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3iD...ature=youtu.be
The authorities really ought to be asked some hard questions about this ☕

It’s the exact same scene we saw back in San Diego in 2011. The police just stood there idling while they threw them back.
But hey, nothing lasts forever, right? 🙂

The very thing I thought was buried in the past just came back to haunt me, and as of yesterday, I’m officially on the blacklist.
Now Mamić is starting to panic, grasping at straws and throwing everything he can find at us just to push us out.

But as long as even one of us is standing our ground out East and refusing to back down, we fight for this club. This is nothing more than proof of how much of a thorn in his side we really are.
UNTIL THE VERY LAST MAN STANDS!

nimbleviper22 said:I can't recall the exact date—maybe last year or the year before—but I know it was a European match. The Bad Boys were up in the north stands, and Al Capone was right there with them in the north section, jumping around and cheering the whole game just like everyone else.🙂

It was USA vs. Mexico, you've got your wires crossed, nimbleviper22.😁

Anyway, three insults in a row.🤣 🤣
Why they bother with such nonsense, honestly...

$50 / $57

Absolute chaos 😁

If anyone is heading from Santa Monica toward Cleveland tomorrow, shoot me a DM.

Jesse Campbell said:What does this have to do with us? And who ever claimed he wasn't powerful? We've taken on much bigger sharks than him before.

That image of united fans—after the media spent twenty years painting us as bloodthirsty barbarians—can't be ruined even by fifty Mamić's.

Besides, you haven't heard about the inspection ruling? Now Mamić is left with nothing but Joe to save him. You tell me... 😉

I think we all put way too much faith in Jovanović at the start of this whole saga, only to find out he’s just like the rest of the country. All bark and no bite, and to top it off, he's been completely humiliated by the very person he swore long ago he was going to take down.

But every cloud has a silver lining. ZZD and someone above me explained clearly that this could actually help our team dismantle the indictment, so anyone with influence needs to show up on Fifth Avenue. $3.25 - $3.25. It doesn't matter.

Still, I agree with you regarding that image of unified fans. Every move they make like this just makes them more nervous and sinks them deeper. God willing, we see the same thing tomorrow and again on the 18th. They're officially drowning.

Nathan Foster23 said:Look at it any way you want, you're stuck in the system. Once they put your name on an away list, you're done. Anyone traveling for games is already marked; those bureaucrats are just idling, waiting for a single excuse to slap you with a ban. And they’ll probably celebrate it—one less headache for them, right?

Just play it smart this Sunday.

👍

Not long ago, I got picked up at the station before a game for what they called an "informational" chat. 🤣
After sitting there for half an hour listening to a conversation that lacked even a shred of logic, they flatly told me: you're a registered fan. No context, nothing. It was like being added to a registry for some heinous crime just because I show up to games.

As I was leaving the room, some absolute piece of work with a smug little smirk tossed one last comment my way: we'll make sure you cool off from all these games soon enough. 🙂

That’s why I’m telling you: be smart. Swallow your pride if you have to and don't take the bait. They are just sitting there rubbing their hands together, praying for the slightest provocation. The better you behave, the more they lose their grip. 😉

It’s not like anyone is actually surprised by 🤣

I’m wearing green sneakers.😢

Reading that article in the New York Times and seeing how their media portrays us... it honestly made me want to gag.

Jesse Campbell said:The game has changed. Modern times demand modern recruitment strategies. We aren't talking about swearing at reporters or getting into street fights anymore; we’re talking about contemporary marketing and PR.
.

I don't know, I've always seen it differently... Take the New York Knicks, for example. Sure, they look polished because they're a well-run organization. But you see kids walking in there who couldn't name three players on the roster, wouldn't know what an offside call is in hockey, and only show up because it's "trendy"—walking through those arenas just wearing the jersey to look cool...
Yankee Stadium was never my scene for that kind of crowd. I’d much rather have five die-hard fans left after Healthman leaves than twenty people—half of them just fashionistas—showing up because Real Madrid is considered "modern" now. I'm not asking for people to walk in knowing the entire '67 roster, including the coaches and doctors, but it would be nice if they actually showed up because Real Madrid means something to them. They should be screaming for 90 minutes out of pure love, not just to flaunt their new sneakers.

As for the Boston Celtics that Christian Jones mentioned, sure, you might run into some celebrities at a game, but they aren't showing up en masse in any organized way—especially not nowadays, while we're fighting a completely different battle on the other side of town. 🙂

Henry Grant51 said:None of this works unless you account for one major flaw... the cops at the stadium entrances. Whether it’s the home supporters' section or just general seating like the east or west stands, if they spot you as an away fan, they'll likely toss you straight into a van or a holding cell.
Look at what happened when LA Galaxy played a cup match in Des Moines... a few of us tried to get into the main stands, but they spotted us immediately at the gate. They marched us over to the visiting section while blowing smoke in our faces, harassing us, filming us, even making us take off our shoes and stuff like that...

Honestly, I think getting into the stands in San Francisco, Miami, or San Diego will be easier since you can actually blend into the crowd. In Des Moines, where these low-tier matches happen every other leap year, there's nowhere to hide.

Jonathan Lewis3 said:It would have been a decent piece if it wasn't being written by them; they’re clearly just setting the stage to run a headline one day titled "How Index forced Mamić out."

The article makes its points and reflects reality, and the headline isn't wrong either, BUT since the author is Alač, I'm not surprised at all.
He's tearing Real Madrid apart right now not because he's providing an objective analysis, but because he's been dying to get all this off his chest. 😍

Man, I bet it’s pouring rain in Luxembourg right now, so they’re all just losing their minds on this forum from their hotel rooms.🤣

Thomas Clark91 said:Look, you have a point to some extent, but there is a massive gap between venting on an online forum because you're bored and actually taking those ideas out into the real world.

You have to admit, those are two completely different worlds. Besides, this is far too serious a matter to be hashed out in a comment section.

Because, let’s be honest, we aren't just talking about lighting up ten flares and heading home... once you really think about the implications, the situation gets incredibly complicated.

Give me a break. Has nobody else here realized that this is the absolute peak of their intellectual capacity? This is as deep as they get.🤦

Over the last three pages of supposedly "constructive debate," this guy has typed "Hey man, just set off ten flares and call it a day" at least fifteen times.🙏 And the people who actually grasp the gravity of the situation either don't exist online or don't bother posting on this forum.

Just ignore these idiots and move on. Don't waste your breath trying to justify yourselves to them.😕

driftingotter47 said:The draw for the Champions League second qualifying round is set for June 24th.
The first leg hits July 16th/17th, followed by the return leg on July 23rd/24th.

Potential opponents include teams like Eljezničar, FH (Faraday Island), Gyori, New Saints, Ludogorets, Sligo, Karaganda, Korce, Birkirkara, EB Farsi, Cliftonville, Vardar, Daugava, Tre Penne, Sutjeska, Kalju, Lusitanos, Fola, and Pyunik from Armenia.

A few interesting matchups in there, I suppose. 😁

Then there are those "interesting" travel bans. 🤣

But Faraday Island? Give me a break. 😂 Of course we’ll end up drawing them.

Eric Phillips52 said:Numbers matter. When the math is on our side, we win. Having massive scale behind us? That’s a huge advantage. It's everything. Let’s be real: 90% of those people who screwed up today aren't even on our side. They couldn't care less about us or this fight.Tomorrow you’ve got that game against Mexico, where they’ll be giving us the finger the second we start chanting against the US Soccer Federation. Then comes the Euro tournament, where they’ll give us grief for lighting flares. We’ll face off against the heavyweights, only to have them shut us down when we stand up against the big-money owners. As for our protests today or tomorrow? Don't hold your breath. They won't lift a finger to help us. These people just blow whichever way the wind shifts—you can't rely on types like that for anything.

Dead wrong. ☕
The guys who were shouting? They were part of our group. Everyone else just stood there in silence, looking completely lost. There were about 60 Bad Boys up in the stands who were yelling back at you and even cheering for a bit. But once you guys finally made it up there, that whole section was cut off—the cops stepped in immediately, which was a total shame.
All in all, today was decent.

Police raid ends in total chaos—clumsy rooftop descent followed by an even more pathetic attempt at scaling the fence. 🤣🤣 🤦

Some people really should have packed some sunscreen. 😍
