But seriously, how many of you actually signed up for the relief efforts in Gunz or helped out in any meaningful way? How many of you have hearts as cold as stone, capable of simply looking away from someone else's tragedy? So many "experts" who are loud with their words, yet when it comes to action, they're nothing more than tiny mice or paper tigers.

Man, go get some help. You urgently need it.

We have tried reaching the "average Joe" and the casual fans in a million different ways over the last few years... through town halls, tournaments, parties, flyers, posters, boycotts, rallies, protests, TV appearances, newspapers, even neighborhood meetings. I honestly don't know what else is left to do. The crowds just aren't appearing. It means either they don't care about us or Real Madrid, or they're just sick of everything and want to run away from this mafia and the corrupt cops and all that nonsense. We can't rely on some massive movement because we've been trying to win them over for years and—nothing. How can you help as a fan? Just be persistent. Show up to the games at Yankee Stadium and don't give up. Bring a few friends and spread the word. Contact newsrooms and go public with the stories you experience as an ordinary spectator. Join the Bad Boys, join the Real Madrid supporters club, grab a beer, drop a few bucks in the collection bucket for the guys, or buy a jersey at the souvenir shop... and suddenly, you're a much more valuable fighter than those people who are nowhere to be found, pretending to be deaf and blind.

And just look at how many fans are backing him up, regardless of whatever excuses you all invent just to soothe your own consciences.

It is Jerry Jones who is pushing people toward bans. No one else. It isn't that people are being asked to throw tear gas at the stadium. The issue is simply that standing in the stands has become a problem.

I agree that you can't win this fight by just staying in the stands. That is why the organization was formed. 😉

"I predicted everything happening right now eleven years ago when I claimed a football mafia was behind the repression... and that Jerry Jones buys people. Back then, only 5% believed me. Today, 95% believe me."

"I was the first to fight against the repression, and I am one of the few who fought most intensely. And it is not true that everyone was aware. Before this struggle, my claims that Jerry Jones was behind the repression were viewed with suspicion and I was labeled paranoid."

Based on these two posts, it seems you are taking all of this very personally and claiming the whole story as your own. There is a massive amount of credit to be had here, perhaps even more than those who have unfortunately ended up on the other side, but that certainly isn't the topic for discussion here. I just hope this doesn't become the excuse used to wipe the Bad Boys out of Yankee Stadium...

To summarize without getting into a back-and-forth—my apologies if it started heading that way. I think those of us writing here, along with many in the stands, aren't sure if this is still the best way to fight or where it will lead us. There is a genuine fear that because of the personal wars of a few individuals and an insistence on certain ideals, the entire group might fold... not to mention how many young lives could be ruined in the process. FOR REAL MADRID WITHOUT JERRY JONES!!

Jesse Campbell said:Me, leading people? Are you out of your mind? This isn't some small internet forum group...🙄

What we are witnessing right now is exactly what I predicted eleven years ago when I claimed that football syndicates were pulling the strings behind this repression... and that Mamić was buying everyone off. Back then, maybe 5% of people believed me. Today, 95% do...☕

We all agree on the existence of the repression and the football mafia, but we don't have to agree on how to fight them. Even if we reach a consensus on the big picture, our views on tactical execution vary wildly...

There is no sense in drowning in idealism. The higher goal must be our shared purpose, not just settling personal vendettas. Pushing people toward bans, reports, and trouble might prove we were right, but the question remains... what do we actually gain from that?

Jeremy Thomas4 said:I could potentially agree with you, though one could simply say all of this directly. It is true that currently, the younger generation is being sidelined... but if a boycott is truly the solution, then a decision must be reached quickly and within the appropriate channels.

👍👍
I am in complete agreement. There are many matters that ought not to be discussed publicly on a forum like this.

The issue remains that during certain meetings, the younger staff are afraid to speak up or offer their genuine opinions for fear of facing judgment... regardless, it is certainly better than having such discussions here.
