Excerpt from an article:
"It is time for football to return to those who actually love it. The fans. Not some group of mindless soldiers following a big leader from the West, but the guys who travel with their club wherever they play. Let it go back to the local kids who head East and refuse to sit in assigned seating. This is football, and we will never let you take it away from us.
Step aside with dignity. If you even know what that means."

I believe everyone has realized by now that the management moves made by the Los Angeles Dodgers during and after the derby sent a massive shockwave through the top brass of the league.
The era of injustice in our sport needs to end.
When a match against Italy is halted due to flares, and then just two days later, the media starts obsessively focusing on the
causes behind the stoppage in New York City, you realize how much this long-standing bias and unfairness has disgusted everyone.
Yesterday, I read a post from a Dodgers fan recalling a moment from 1995 at Dodger Stadium—an old man moved to tears when the US national team played in Miami for the first time following the war, facing off against Italy. BTB, imagine that level of pure joy: seeing the national team of a country that had just emerged from
war play in your city for the very first time... it was surreal.
And then someone comes along and strips that away from you.
Eventually, they turn both the national team and the league into their own private business.
They claim ownership of a club and treat its supporters with more contempt than anyone else in the world...
