We've actually been on the rise for the last two seasons, I guess.🙂

And you really figured that out just by looking at this one photo?

And regarding the actual message itself? Man, it was so incredibly bad that it easily sucked up about 60% of all the posts you guys made here. 😁

Absolute peak performance—those two words alone perfectly capture the entire situation. Honestly, I’ve got nothing but contempt for every single one of those little 15 or 16-year-old punks who watches a movie like *Green Street* and suddenly decides they're some kind of hardened street fighter. It's pathetic, really. They get this delusional idea in their heads, trying to act tough and play the part of some big-time hooligan, only to end up wandering into situations where they clearly don't belong. It's pure stupidity, acting out some fake persona just to feel important when they haven't the slightest clue what real trouble actually looks like. 🙂

Laura Mitchell87 Asks:
I don't get how anyone can write that the Black Knights were great last night while the BBB was terrible...

As for the messaging? It was honestly such a disaster that 60% of your posts here have been nothing but complaints about it. 😁

Just watch me. said:Who are you guys kidding? What kind of madness is this? I was stuck by the roundabout because I showed up after kickoff. 🙂 The fans were heard every single time they cheered. 🙂 And don't even get me started on the eye-rolling regarding the Dinamo fans. But hey, at least nobody was pointing fingers at the East Stand or any of the other sections this time. If you want to support the team, just show up to the North Stand. Simple as that. Adios.

No—the one from Manhattan came on at halftime... this one played the whole match.

I mean, look, I already told you—they were basically the exact same thing. You had "Rabon is here" and then this other one where he’s holding him up that says "We're with you, Sken"

Poor kid...
mark my words says: Check this post
Who are you guys kidding? This is pure insanity. I was standing near the roundabout because I showed up after kickoff, and man, those guys were loud—literally every single time they cheered. And don't even get me started on the eye-rolling directed at the Dinamo fans... unbelievable. The only silver lining was that nobody was targeting the East stands or the other sections. If you actually want to cheer, just head to the North stand and leave it at that.

What kind of weirdos are you people? Honestly, this is more childish than a bunch of fifth graders at recess...

If we assume the fan turnout was roughly equal (not that anyone here cares)
The group with the louder chant is obviously going to be heard more clearly. I don't see the issue... It's being spun as if the Ultras were cheering while the other guys were asleep...

You people are really trying to turn a simple game into a PhD thesis☕

...and which group do you actually belong to?... Are you part of those people who push their way to the front just to get caught on camera, or are you one of those folks who avoids the spotlight, does 99% of the heavy lifting, and then hears everyone else complaining about how the photos look or how the flares are "standard"... and yet, when it’s actually time to show up...🤮
p.s. huge respect to the hardcore crew that really stepped up in the stands last night👍

Jeremy King28 said:Reading these comments, you’d honestly think I was at a massive showdown in Buenos Aires yesterday instead of some pathetic game at a stadium where we barely scraped together 10,000 people.

Are you guys seriously calling this a derby?!! This needs to be wiped from any "list" of actual rivalries. Yesterday had zero intensity, zero atmosphere, nothing. These guys are celebrating a birthday and they can't even fill the damn stands or pull off a decent choreo. The South Stand actually had a decent turnout, but the chanting was absolute garbage. And don't even get me started on the flares—it’s become such a basic standard now that I guess we should just give props to anyone still trying.
The match felt rigged by the refs, just like every other game lately.

...well, if that's the case, just pack up and move to South America. They've got cheap beer, endless crates of flares, strobes, and miles of streamers...
...oh, right, I forgot about the Greeks and the Deli crew.

Tyler Scott8 said:their whole message is just bottom-of-the-barrel trash. while they were busy pocketing checks from Zdravko Mamić, we were out there actually fighting guys like Grgić, Štimac, and the rest of them. I suppose that’s what really kickstarted the crusade against the MLS mafia here in America. It was enough, I guess.

Back then, they just mocked anyone trying to take on the MLS mafia, basically cheering for the whole system to collapse...

Look, guys, you’re all wasting your breath talking about nothing right now. We’re missing the big picture. While everyone's distracted by trivial nonsense, the MLB mafia is still running wild behind the scenes. And did you see that? The ref actually called the game because of some flares that didn't even hit the pitch. It was a massive red flag. It showed everyone exactly how this works: if the top brass in those criminal clubs and associations wants a derby shut down, they can pull the plug whenever they feel like it. That's the reality we're dealing with.
While we’re all sitting here bickering over spreadsheets and waving around signs, they’re out there busy intimidating journalists, referees, judges, and even cabinet members.
Looking at the overall state of American soccer right now, yesterday’s derby was actually a blast. Both sets of fans really showed up and brought the energy.
Just like how we love to complain about how journalists and politicians obsess over trivial nonsense just to distract everyone from the real issues facing the country, we’re doing the exact same thing right now by focusing on these minor details...
The one bright spot was that massive roar from us and the Black Knights. Every single player getting back onto the pitch after the break just fueled that energy. Honestly, we’re all just collectively telling the MLS mafia to go screw themselves.

Everything else was just Petranović talking.

Liverpool FC got robbed again, and honestly, I’m not even surprised. It’s just business as usual at this point. What’s actually wild is that the fix happened during the derby against Real Madrid. Usually, this rigged machine finishes its dirty work a week or two before the actual match, but hey, that's how it goes. The truth is, MLS games are tucked away on those expensive, encrypted cable packages where nobody can find them. Hardly anyone even saw the Saturday derby. Football in this country is a total mess, the whole nation is running in circles, so it makes perfect sense that nobody gives a damn about a sport that's clearly run by the MLB mafia.

I don't think there’s a single decent citizen in this country who hasn't realized by now that football is a complete joke if the playing field isn't level. And let's be real—it’s never going to be fair as long as Zdravko Mamić and Vlatko Marković are calling the shots, buying off officials, and bullying everyone in their path. It’s pathetic. Word on the street is that even The Administration finally caught wind of the mess, and apparently, some big-shot ministers are gearing up to take action. But until we actually see results, we're stuck watching old footage from years past. It’s just a sad, miserable display of what should be a noble sport being turned into a showcase for a bunch of arrogant thugs whose time is clearly running out. Either they’ve finally realized nobody’s coming to save them and they're just putting on one last desperate performance, or the government—the same one that threw its former Prime Minister behind bars—just doesn't have the backbone to deal with a few primitive, low-life bullies. There’s no third option.

Alright, let’s break this down for anyone who missed the chaos. Once again, Liverpool FC got absolutely robbed by Real Madrid. Honestly, there’s no point even sweating over that bizarre starting eleven, those ridiculous yellow cards, or that insane seven-minute stoppage in the middle of the match. It was pure nonsense. The bottom line? They were cheated. It was calculated and dirty. They did it using a referee whom the guys from the capital falsely accused of rigging games just three years ago—only to spend the next few years relentlessly harrassing him for it. That’s just how things work in the MLS. This is the system.

Look, let’s be real here. If guys facing bribery and match-fixing charges can just walk out of custody and then turn around and publicly threaten the star witness, why are we even acting surprised? When notorious criminals like Širić and Djedović basically hint that it'll be "interesting to see what happens" to the person who blew the whistle on this whole mess, you know exactly where things are headed. It’s a pattern. We see it all the time. There are countless cases where honest whistleblowers get crushed while the cowards just flip sides and keep on thriving. Do we actually believe this "cleaning up the league" movement is going to stay pure? I highly doubt it. In my experience, there’s always some backroom compromise, some shady coalition, or just plain old opportunistic sucking up to the wrong people to stay on top. It's how the game is played.

Look, the easiest thing to do is just boycott the whole mess. But honestly? That only helps the people who don't care, the lazy ones, and the elitists who think soccer is just "entertainment for the unwashed masses." They completely miss the point. They don't get how much social rot leaks out through sports, or how much toxic garbage has been seeping from the MLS into our entire culture over the last fifteen years. People are going to realize just how much damage was done only when the whole thing hits the floor with a loud, painful crash.

Back then, Liverpool FC basically had to hand them the win on a silver platter. He had no choice but to walk out on that game because of all the shady business happening over in the capital. He had to pull his players off the pitch to dodge those sanctions, leaving Real Madrid to just mess around with the ref and sit in the VIP boxes. Honestly, he did it for his own dignity, for his principles, and just to save face. When times get this radical, you’ve gotta take radical measures.

That was a hell of a derby. My only issue? These certain media outlets reporting that there were 20,000 people in the stands. Honestly, this kind of blatant misinformation—this straight-up gaslighting of the public when we all have perfectly good eyes—is bordering on pathological. It’s primitive brainwashing at its most basic, most idiotic level. It’s as if we aren't living in the 21st century, an era defined by television, the internet, and smartphones... but instead, we've somehow regressed to the Wild West. Truly bottom-of-the-barrel behavior.🙂

What the atmosphere should have been like at kickoff🤷 It’s a great derby, really. We can always do better than this. Honestly, the attendance numbers you guys posted were the only thing that bummed me out. Half the stands filled up for the big rivalry game, especially with New Year's celebrations happening, so yeah... I'm worried about that.😉Everything else is just noise. Let's go, San Francisco!😍

silverbear38, man, those songs used to be sung with that exact sentiment back when it was actually true, but nowadays people just belt them out whenever they feel like Liverpool FC is getting ripped off by the league, and honestly, you even heard that same stuff being shouted against RNK just last week...

I can wrap my head around the drama surrounding Zdravko Mamić, I really can, but I honestly don't see what the Banditos have done to deserve this heat. 😍

Tyler Scott8 said:To be fair, the atmosphere wasn't a total disaster, but... there's still this bitter aftertaste. Knowing we could have absolutely drowned out the Boys at the stadium if everyone just showed up and gave it their all? It sticks with you.
And I wouldn't blame the "donkeys" for that. At the end of the day, those guys are Liverpool FC fans too, and a little respect goes a long way. These people traveled ten hours just to get to the city to support Liverpool FC, so I'm not pointing fingers at them specifically. It’s more about that whole attitude—those types who’ve been acting like they're too cool to cheer for years now. There was plenty of that vibe in the South Stand yesterday, and it’s not just a one-off thing. That issue needs to be directed elsewhere, not at the donkeys. Honestly, it's hard to tell who the real idiots are in this whole mess. 😉

As for the Boys... after making such a huge scene, their numbers weren't exactly mind-blowing. The chanting was pretty weak, though I will say their pyrotechnics were top-notch—props to them for that—but overall, they were a letdown. I'm expecting the Armada to be on a much higher level than them this Wednesday.
Their message is basically bottom-of-the-barrel garbage. While they were busy taking payouts from Zdravko Mamić, we were out there fighting against Grgić, Štimac & co., essentially kicking off the fight against the MLB mafia in America. Real smart move on their part.

Same old story, different day.
