Die-hard Ultras / Hardcore Supporters

Maybe try starting a bit slower, then picking up the pace... or perhaps with the Red Army, you start with a low chant and gradually build the volume until everyone is shouting.

We really ought to suggest a complete overhaul of the ticket pricing. The North Stand should definitely be the most expensive section... and they seriously need to get rid of those people who just sit there silently instead of singing when we score.

Hey, I think we should

VOUCHERS ARE GONE! 👍

http://ussf.org/news/4431/decision-by-ussf-executive-committee/

They finally looked at that rule from back in October 2014—you know, the one banning away fans unless the club organizes their entire travel itinerary. After some serious digging, the Executive Board realized it was a total disaster. It didn't work, and honestly, it just hurt the clubs, the supporters, and the whole beautiful game. So, after a long debate, the USSF decided to scrap it entirely.

The change kicks in immediately. All MLS clubs, every participating MLS club, the Competition Commissioner, the Security Commissioner, and all match officials—delegates and refs included—are expected to follow this new directive.

The policy banning away fans from their designated sections unless the club organizes their travel has been under review since October 16, 2014. The Board ultimately determined that the rule failed to achieve any of its intended goals.

I suppose they were just busy causing chaos in the stands instead. ☕

But the reality is...
enforcing this mandate has only served to damage the league's structure, the individual clubs, the supporters, and the sport at large.

And yet, nothing changes. 🙂

Well, there you have it—they went ahead and scrapped those "legendary" vouchers 🙂
I guess we can just take them, toss them in a corner somewhere, and let them gather dust until they're completely forgotten 😁

I mean, honestly, I was sitting there thinking about how much things have changed lately, just staring at my coffee and wondering if anyone else feels that same weird, lingering sense of nostalgia for how things used to be before everything got so loud and frantic. It’s funny, really, because you look at the way people engage with their teams now, especially those die-hard Ultras who have been around since the beginning, and you realize that the passion hasn't actually shifted, even if the scenery has. We all want that same connection, that same feeling of being part of something bigger than ourselves, whether we're talking about sports or just trying to make sense of life in a city like Chicago or maybe Seattle. I was reading some thoughts from Bradley Sullivan4 the other day—and I don't mean to dwell on it, truly—but he had this way of looking at the community aspect of fandom that just stuck with me, making me realize that we're all just searching for that same sense of belonging in an increasingly fragmented world. It’s a bit exhausting, isn't it? Trying to hold onto those old-school values while everything moves at a hundred miles an hour, but I suppose that's just the price we pay for moving forward. Bradley Sullivan4 says:
So, I’ve been sitting here mulling over that whole ruling regarding the ban on visiting fans—you know, the one from back in mid-October 2014—where they basically said away supporters aren't allowed in the visiting section unless the club handles their entire arrival in one big, organized group. It’s one of those bureaucratic headaches that feels like it was designed specifically to make life difficult for the actual fans, and honestly, looking back at how much paperwork it requires just to show up and cheer, you have to wonder if the league even realizes how much it stifles the atmosphere. The executive board basically sat down, crunched the numbers, and decided she just didn't hit the mark they were looking for.

I mean, they probably were just looking for a scrap in the stands, weren't they? ☕

I mean, honestly...
Honestly, I think her actions ended up doing a massive amount of damage—not just to the league itself, but to all the individual clubs, the fans who live and breathe this sport, and really, to the whole beautiful game as we know it.

And honestly, nobody knows a damn thing about any of it. 🙂

That’s exactly it, though—honestly, their biggest mistake was that they didn't have any real chaos breaking out among the fans, and it clearly eats them up inside to see all the different supporter groups actually standing together for once.

First battle won! Now we hit them even harder together!!!

I mean, look, the USSF clearly wants us to stay away, just pure nonsense, which is exactly why they pushed that whole Voucherization thing. But honestly, it totally backfired on them because it actually brought all the fans together. I guess the way forward is to just keep this momentum going at every single match, having the fan groups standing side by side for the full 90 minutes, just letting them have it against those criminals over at the USSF.

comment from a news portal

Voucherization had its moments of brilliance. The marches through Miami and Washington, D.C. shattered the delusion that fans are just an unorganized mob, sending a sharp, undeniable message straight to the suits at the top.

🙂

The Torcida Supporters Club is putting together our second indoor soccer tournament for all our local fan groups and branches... it’s happening on March 1st, 2014, over at the sports arena in Miami's Mejaš neighborhood.

Last year, we mentioned how we wanted to make this kind of tournament—just a way for everyone to get together before the second half of the season kicks off—into an annual tradition. We couldn't quite pull it off last time because the Hajduk's schedule was just too messy, so we decided to wait until the first Sunday Hajduk plays here in Miami.

Starting this year, the Torcida Supporters Club leadership has decided to name the tournament after Pavao Grubišić Čaba, our former secretary who left us far too soon. By running this tournament, we want to honor Pave and everything he did for the group and for Hajduk. He was really one of the leaders of the new generation of Torcida... a guy who helped lay the groundwork for everything we do for Great Hajduk. We'll always remember him as a dreamer, an idealist, someone who fought against injustice, a true rebel, and honestly, one of the bravest guys ever to stand up in the North.

Last year, the tournament was the big finale for our "Torcida for Vukovar" charity drive, where we managed to raise $37 for the families most in need in Vukovar and the Tompojevac area. This year, we're keeping that humanitarian spirit alive... all the entry fees collected will be donated directly to Pave's daughters.

The entry fee per team is $100, and if you want in, please sign up by February 28th, 2014, at least. You can call 099 440 0193 or just stop by the fan club.
The technical details... we'll release those once we see how many teams sign up. Match lengths and the full schedule will depend on the number of entries, but we're planning to kick things off at 10 AM.

They aren't. They just tied the topic to Lokomotiva (give or take 5 days, if I recall correctly)—specifically regarding the Voucherization process.

Give me a break, man. Did anyone actually believe Lokomotiva and the USSF were going to get relegated? This country has become such a complete dumpster fire that laws are being broken right in front of our faces and nobody gives a damn. For now, that "win" against the mafia is nothing more than a line on a piece of paper.

It looks like we’ve reached that inevitable point in the season where everyone starts looking for someone to blame—and frankly, I can't say I blame them. If you look at the current state of things, it feels like we're just spinning our wheels in the mud. The management seems to be operating under some sort of delusion—or perhaps they’re just waiting for a miracle that isn't coming—regarding how this squad actually functions. We talk about progress, yet here we are, staring at the same old tactical stalemates. It’s almost impressive, in a deeply frustrating sort of way, how consistently we manage to avoid any real momentum. I guess we can always hope for a better outcome next time, but based on what I'm seeing right now? I wouldn't hold my breath.

What’s the deal with these guys on the left?

So, I heard you were supposed to be here earlier today.🤣

These guys on the left are just basic bandwagoners.😠

The top 😁 part of the image remains just as it always has

You can really see the changes happening... those banners look sharp and well-organized
but
I’m actually digging that North side vibe, kind of an "Argentine style" thing going on
still, thank God there aren't any tacky patches everywhere😁

They're nothing but communists.

John Brown30 said:I think Betty Ramos2 was already trying to tell you that you're running late today...🤣

These guys on the left—they're nothing but a bunch of amateurs.😠

Well, he's certainly staying busy enough.
Seriously though, where is the video content? Is anyone actually getting anything done around here?😍
