Die-hard Ultras / Hardcore Supporters

Jonathan Lewis3 said:man, some people in the stands just don't have any passion in their souls... they wouldn't know how to cheer if their lives depended on it...

honestly 🤦

Jonathan Lewis3 said:Man, if you can't handle some loud fans in the stands, maybe you shouldn't be at the game in the first place...

Hold on—where do you get off calling people names on this forum? Who do you think you are?

Hell yeah. Respect!

Huge flags, smoke machines, flares, really solid messaging... It was top tier. ☕

The energy in the stands was just pathetic... why is everyone too afraid to admit it? What we saw yesterday felt like a massive step backward into the dark ages. Nobody seems to want to actually cheer anymore. It’s an absolute disaster.

Honestly, this one sentiment carries more weight than an entire season of mindless cheering.👍

Are you kidding me??? I mean, the message is spot on, but man... we're basically fighting a war through text messages now.😢

Are you feeling personally attacked or something?
Out of your roughly 200 posts here, 99% of them are just some variation of "Wait, who?", "Why?", or "Who do you think you are?"
To me, a "sheep" is anyone who isn't part of a die-hard fan base that’s organized from the ground up—you know, the folks who don't just jump on the bandwagon because they're caught up in the hype and start screaming nonsense just to feel included.

Any fan who isn't there from day one—the ones who just jump on the bandwagon when things get hype and start screaming like total idiots—is just a sheep to me.

You two are grabbing coffee together almost every single day, so why all the drama?

I don't want to sound like a lawyer here... I'm trying to be reasonable... but honestly, the situation in New York City is arguably at its absolute worst. They intentionally leave just one single entrance open... they funnel everyone into this tiny bottleneck... and then you have people shoving, stripping down, getting dressed—it looks exactly like a department store right before Christmas when crowds are swarming the fitting rooms 😁. On top of that, they arrest massive groups of people before the game for no reason at all, while those who aren't targeted end up getting crushed at the gate because they're on some imaginary blacklist. You’ve got security guards every few feet breathing down your neck because you dared to stand on the stairs. If you try to move away, the police swoop in and haul you off. And once things actually get heated inside? As a rule, the cops charge right in. I don't know how things are for you guys in St. Louis, but in New York City, the police are constantly on edge, aggressive, and standing there with their tear gas. I'm not saying it isn't tough for the NFL Ultras either... what happened at the cup meeting the other day was horrific... but for us, this is constant. It happens at every home game. Eventually, it starts feeling suicidal just to try and enter the stadium. It isn't even rare to see the police raiding local bars after the match, arresting people left and right. One day, playing against a team like the Dodgers, if you don't have an ID on you, you aren't getting through the gates. Then, after a while, they just lock the ticket booths and claim everything is sold out 😁... good luck to everyone, both sides 😁

Have you ever really stopped to wonder why things are playing out this way? If you ask me, it’s because there are only about two hundred of you out there, which basically means they can just do whatever they want to you without any real pushback. They can't pull that same stunt with us, though, because we actually have numbers on our side, and honestly, we could shut down the whole system and leave those cops staring at an empty street if we felt like it—not that anyone in your group would even dare to step up right now, would they?

They can't pull that crap on us because we actually have numbers behind us. We could throw hands with the cops without a second thought, whereas none of you would even dare to lift a finger right now.

Being part of a massive crowd is a double-edged sword for Rock Hudson given how things stand right now.

They can't just walk over us because we have numbers on our side—we could shut down the entire police force without breaking a sweat. Honestly, none of you would even dare try that right now.

It’s practically overflowing from top to bottom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64jPmBcKV2w and then they just move in... and that was with gear half as advanced as what they're carrying today... when there's actual will, anything is possible.

You don't see this much pyrotechnics at a single game; it’s enough to keep all the home supporter groups going for the entire season.

And finally, there was constant, spontaneous flare action for the full 90 minutes.

A few bits from yesterday

NOTHING EVER GOES RIGHT-1950

Dammit they absolutely wrecked it—the whole squad fell apart in every single department, except maybe the fans who spent the last half hour just yelling and nothing else... what a joke, you absolute PERFECTIONISTS from 1950!!!
