This Tuesday, October 13th, the U21 national team is taking the pitch at the LA Galaxy II stadium in Savannah to face off against Mexico.
We’re calling on all the supporter groups out there—especially those who might be feeling a bit discouraged after the senior team's recent "rough patch"—to show up in Savannah tomorrow! Let’s get loud in the stands and show these young guys that we actually care about our soccer and our country, right?

Let's all unite under one flag... NO EXCUSES!!!

For anyone planning to join the march to the stadium, we'll be gathering around 3:00 PM at the main town square.

God and Americans

Hey everyone—let's get together this Saturday under one single flag.
👍

It might not be 200, but hey—it’s certainly nothing to laugh at!
I'm really hoping to see the fleet picking up steam—looking at these last few games, it feels like the guard is finally returning. Just keep that momentum going! 👍

2.No, because we'll all just end up being lured back, and that's where it ends for us.
3.No, it isn't solved. How is Tim Stamps going to explain why there aren't 1,000 people packed into stadiums during a single matchday weekend? How are the clubs going to react when they lose ticket revenue, which leads to losing sponsors, and eventually the media calling them out for once—but this time, actually siding with us?

I totally get where you're coming from regarding the boycott theory and why stadium attendance has clearly dropped off over the last five or six years—but let's be real, clubs in the MLS don't survive solely on ticket sales. Journalists are usually the ones making noise, and it's pretty tough to win them over given the current mess, so we shouldn't expect much there. Tim Stamps knows perfectly well that interest in American football is dipping, which is probably why he's pushing that "love football" show—it's basically a way for him and the USSF to turn a profit while the fans stay home watching on TV instead of showing up in person.

We light a flare and ten cops show up to clear out the entire section because there aren't even 20 people willing to fight back. Anyone who actually tries to resist just gets slapped with massive bans and fines, and then what? There’s nobody left. The reality is that in the US, we don't even have 10,000 hardcore fans ready to dig in and revolt. We don't have any choice but to boycott, because anything else—whether it's getting crushed by the law, getting crucified by the media (and we all know how they treat us), or getting torn apart by the police—just leaves us with nothing. We simply don't have the numbers to take them on by force.

Bold 1-🤷I don't get the 13-20 age thing?? Seriously, does that mean I can't boycott since I'm too old?
Bold 2-we'll light hundreds if we have to, but that's not really the point.
Bold 3-it's true there aren't 10,000 "real" fans, but how do you even expect to boycott games like that... honestly, screw Tim Stamps, Srebrić, Đurđa, and the cops for our boycott. If anything, our boycott solves their problem, because once we stop showing up, there are no more potential troublemakers or "real" fans left in the stands.

What kind of boycott are we talking about? Seriously, what are you guys thinking? If we all stay home, we’re just handing them a win on a silver platter.
Now more than ever, we need to push back and show them we're stronger than they think.
Everyone needs to get their groups together and head to the stands to make it clear how much we hate this senseless, totalitarian fan law... honestly, they can take it where they shove it.
