"We're the best, we're unstoppable, and the cops are total scum—we'll take over the world..."—that’s usually the kind of trash talk you hear from the fans who were out storming the stadiums yesterday

Look, I know our proposed fan legislation inside and out, and honestly? I’m worried that if we settle for just a 30% compromise, we're going to be celebrating way too early!
Right now, I am dead set against all this talk about protests, backyard BBQs, and whatever other nonsense people are suggesting... it's just not it.
The only real move here is a legal fight—we take it straight to the Supreme Court first, and if that fails, then we head to the European Court of Human Rights.
The entire scene has to get its act together and unite on this, because if we stay divided, we don't stand a chance.
I'm talking everyone—from the small local groups all the way up to the hardcore supporters of the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees!
Every single suggestion needs to be weighed carefully...
Boycotts and street protests have to be our absolute last resort!

here’s the heavy hitters from the new fan legislation
- masking your face—using a hat, scarf, or whatever else to hide who you are
- they actually defined being drunk now, and having a BAC over 0.02% is strictly forbidden
- if the cops suspect you’re a fan, they can pull over your car or bus whenever they want to check for pyrotechnics, booze, drugs... and if the driver or passenger is under the influence, they can just yank your license right then and there
- police have the power to cancel a game or shut it down entirely mid-match
- bans that force you to check in at a precinct or stay stuck inside a station
- these bans apply when traveling abroad too (meaning handing over your passport, checking in at local PDs, or staying at the station)
- protective measures (anywhere from 1 to 2 years) can be slapped on you even without a formal fine
- checking in at the precinct: you gotta show up at least half an hour before kickoff and tell them exactly where you'll be during the game and for 2 hours after
- for those forced to hang out at the station, you gotta show up 4 hours early and stick around until 2 hours after the final whistle
- for international trips, you have to hand over your passport 7 days in advance
- high-risk games will require a dedicated referee on-site at the stadium
- if you're a college student and break any of these rules, the cops are gonna notify your university
- for minors, they’ll notify parents, social services, and the school
- fines range from $100 to $1,000, plus 3 to 30 days in jail (for things like masking your face, being drunk, offensive chants, or having pyro)
- fines from $400 to $2,000 for throwing stuff on the field, singing certain songs (hate speech stuff), lighting flares, inciting fights, getting in on brawls, storming the pitch, or damaging the stadium or transport
- fines between $500 and $2,000 (plus 20 to 60 days in jail) for failing to show up if you're banned, or if you rack up two offenses within 2 years
- 10 $0.00 if you get caught at the stadium while you're supposed to be banned
- the police are keeping a massive database on people and match events (all personal info, nicknames, photos, everything...)

If that’s how you’re looking at it, then the ultras and the whole cohort should've just disbanded a long time ago...

No offense intended... but you guys are absolutely screwed this year
For the club's reputation and the group as a whole, this is just pathetic!
You completely blew it by not capitalizing on winning the Cup two years running—and combining that with the same old issues every single group is dealing with right now, it's costing you dearly.
