My humble opinion—which you'll all probably agree with since I’m clearly the smartest person here—is that a few actual banners are what define a real ultras group. This whole trend of counting every little flag or whatever just because some teams have been getting big welcomes lately? It’s honestly becoming a joke. I’ve got nothing but respect for those gritty, old-school guys out in the Midwest... either bring me some real fighters or stop trying to cheapen your reputation with this nonsense.

This entire list you’re compiling of "groups" and their recent welcoming ceremonies has become a joke. I have nothing but respect for those gritty blue-collar workers back in the Midwest who keep things real; either bring me actual fighters or stop muddying our reputation with this nonsense.
What on earth are you talking about? How many times have your supposed "members" gone on digital tear hunts across random forums, targeting stuff that has absolutely zero connection to the Rangers? And let’s not forget your own birthday celebration—you rolled out a banner claiming dominance using stolen property, which somehow featured a local maritime academy from a random port town.
Stop acting like you're some moral authority—don't pretend to follow an "ultra code" when you've broken it a million times already, just like every other fan group in America! Stick to the topic at hand and stop bringing up Vienna—if they hadn't collapsed right in the middle of Chicago, you wouldn't even be mentioning them...

Can someone explain this for those of us who aren't in the loop?

Everything makes sense, yet it’s bizarre they’d let a slip-up like this happen. It’s a massive oversight, almost comical at this point. What’s actually going on behind the scenes? That’s the real question 🤷

The chant from the stands was something like, "Anyone who's faced us knows..." (or close to it). Then there was this massive banner on the fence that said "The Best," but the letters were made out of torn pieces of some old sign from a small town in the Midwest, or maybe just some random local high school scrap... I can't even describe the picture properly.
Oh, wait, I see the photo has been posted now.

NFL Ultras, Leeds, maybe some maritime crews, demons, local supporters—it’s all just one big mess. The penultimate game was unrecognizable... a total derby nightmare.

1. Since when were people on this forum even part of a group? 🤷
2. What do you mean "not the same"? Look at the NFL Ultras in Philly. Besides fans of the Cowboys or the Raiders, who else shows up waving flags and gear? 🙄
The funniest part of your post is this whole "supporter" nonsense. 🙄 Get it through your heads: back then, supporters were just fans. Plain and simple. Especially within the NFL Ultras. Every time you guys post some old photo saying "Man, look how many of us were in NYC back in '95," and then turn around and complain that "supporters" used to lose their flags, you’re basically insulting your own history. You're spitting on ten years of your own legacy. 😉
Either the NFL Ultras, the local street crews, the brawlers, the neighborhood squads, the guys from Jersey, the crew from Chicago, the folks from Miami, or whatever else... they all fell to "supporters" 🤷 or maybe just hardcores from the local clubs, like those kids out in rural suburbs 🤷
Regarding that trip to Vegas, you bring up those old stories... clearly you think they still carry some weight. 🤷

Wait, how did that even happen? Was it just a mix-up between schools or what?🤣
And then you have people making noise about the trip to Chicago (and doing it on their own turf), while these guys are just putting together choreographies using non-cheer banners. That's all there is to it.🙏

Maybe you just had a rough crowd back in those school days.🤣

Peter Barrett said:Wait, how did that even happen? Was it happening right between schools or what? 🤣
And then these guys start volunteering for the trip to Austin (and even running an event on their own turf), while they're busy making choreographies out of non-fan banners. That's all there is to it. 🙏
It's like being at a high school prom in Chicago 😁

Yeah, yeah... I just realized now that it was the Local Supporters Group.😁
Which one was that again? The one right before last?

I don't know—I'm really not certain—perhaps it falls under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Dubrovnik?
