Die-hard Ultras / Hardcore Supporters

I’ve honestly never seen anything like that before; it looked like something was actually burning right under the bleachers 😁

Jonathan Lewis3 said:Was that sarcasm, or were you watching a different game?

Pure sarcasm, man. I was just so let down by the whole thing that I ended up venting in that post.

Larry Ramirez said:So let’s wrap up this whole debate about the numbers; it's called a purge, and there are always consequences. Honestly, you never know—maybe one day you'll find yourself right in the middle of a situation just like this one.

Fair enough, I guess, but it looks like you guys are missing more than 30 people here.😉

briskotter14 said:Fair enough—but I think you guys are missing about 30 people here😉

All you have to do is look at how many were gathered near us over on Kranjčevićeva Street.

briskotter14 said:Respect, I guess, but you guys are missing at least 30 people here😉

Look, if you really want to play the "fine" card—we've got over a hundred people dealing with bans... you don't have any because, well, I guess there's no reason for you to get banned, but our crowd actually takes risks and puts themselves out there, you know?

Ryan Vaughn7 said:This one. Last night. That disastrous argument ended up with a few bans and a massive pile of deleted posts. I honestly don't get why you guys need all that garbage. Huge thanks to the guy who stepped up and reported those posts, though. That’s really the best way to handle things.

How was last night? I was hanging around until 1:30 AM and absolutely nothing happened. Must have been a late shift or something. 🤷
So this foreman guy is claiming they lost 30 people. Honestly? I don't buy it. My gut says they actually pushed out maybe 10—if that—and then another 20 just walked out because of the drama. It probably looks like a bigger exodus to you guys because the ones who left were the star players.
Regarding all this talk about cleaning house, as far as I know, they’ve been claiming they’d do it for almost five years now and nothing has actually happened. Look, it's not like I'm losing sleep over it, but you guys shouldn't kid yourselves thinking things are suddenly going to improve. That's just the reality of where we stand. If you managed to pull five bad actors out of every neighborhood, that would only account for maybe 100 people total. Honestly, I've always been a believer in the "quality over quantity" approach. I don't see anything wrong with keeping the numbers small if it means getting it right.

Look, guys, why are we even obsessing over these numbers and feeding off everyone else's misery? Who even knows what our situation is going to look like by this time next year?
I’m just sitting here hoping The Boys make a comeback, because honestly, the local scene right now... it's a mess. 🙂

Larry Ramirez said:but there they are, our people, taking risks and making sacrifices and all that.

Will you be at the torchlight parade? 🤣

but then you've got these guys claiming 30 people bailed... I mean, maybe they kicked out 10 (or fewer) and then another 20 just left because of that. It probably looks like more to you guys since those were your star players.
As for cleaning things up—as far as I know, we've had this "cleanup" talk going on for almost 5 years and nothing's changed. Not that I care, but don't kid yourselves thinking things will improve... you're stuck where you are. If you pulled five losers out of every neighborhood, you'd be looking at maybe 100 people max. Personally, I'm all for the "better 500 real ones" approach, so small numbers don't bother me much.

People were talking about that too... I'm betting out of your 4,000 fans down South, there are only 500 real ones left—the rest are basically the type who end up following the New York Cosmos... in terms of actual die-hard fans, that's where we're at. I'm sure we'll bounce back, but probably not until Garbage is gone.

Larry Ramirez said:Look, if you really want to play the "we have people with bans" card, we actually have about a hundred folks dealing with that... you guys don't, because I honestly can't imagine what you'd even get banned for, but hey, our people take risks, make sacrifices, and all that nonsense.

Even out of that hundred, you’re still exaggerating 🤷 We say we have them, but according to the latest numbers, only about 60 people actually have a damn ban 🙂

Larry Ramirez said:People have already argued about this... personally, I think out of those 4,000 folks down south, maybe 500 are actually die-hards. The rest are basically on the same level as the people showing up to watch the New York Cosmos. If we’re talking actual numbers of hardcore fans, that's where we stand. I'm sure we'll bounce back, but not until that trash is gone.

Sure, but then you'll just lose 3,500 more people. The ones who stop coming because of him aren't even part of that "hardcore" group we're talking about. And you're off base regarding the south side; what you're describing is actually what's going to happen at the north end of the stadium during the derby.

And where on earth are the cleaning rags and the flag? 😁 😁

briskotter14 said:Can someone tell me where that smoke is actually coming from? It’s getting hard to track.

It feels like the Black Sea has been resurfacing for a few seasons now. Who knows what's really going on.☕

#69 Are you actually being serious right now, or just playing dumb? I would have phrased things differently before. Honestly, you're just lying to yourself and trying to pull the wool over everyone else's eyes. You think those sales figures justify clearing out the stands? We didn't have people being kicked out of the stadium back here. Go ahead and try using those little sales tactics somewhere else—maybe try a crowd in Chicago or something; you might actually find someone gullible enough to believe your nonsense! See you at the game next weekend, you hooligan. Kisses.

Larry Ramirez said:,but here our people go risking everything and sacrificing themselves, and all that.

What are you even talking about?

Well, the Red Army—and even the Los Angeles Dodgers these days—rely on the sacrifices of a specific group of people who are tied to the club regardless of politics or results.

The best you guys can manage is gathering maybe 100 people in some backwater town in the middle of nowhere, and that’s about it. Though, I suppose it's hard to tell if you're even capable of that. Everything else you do is basically on par with Vermont.

So, in the end, it's all just work done by these idiots who can't even take over San Francisco; they just head over to the stadium so nobody understands anything😁 except for the orgies.😁

A brand new banner for when the flares go off.🙏

Roger Sanchez58 said:#69 Are you actually dense, or are you just playing dumb? You used to say the exact opposite. Honestly, it’s pathetic—you're lying to yourself and trying to pull the wool over everyone else's eyes. You really think those attendance numbers justify "cleaning up" the stands? We didn't have some massive purge or people getting kicked out of the stadium back home. Save those little sales excuses for someone else; try pulling that crap on a crowd of hardcore rivals or something, maybe then you'll actually fool someone! See ya next weekend, hooligan. Kisses.

Good grief, give me a break... 🤦

Why the hell are you guys even posting on their thread? You already know it’s just going to turn into a total circus of stupidity. The numbers are what they are. Everyone wishes they were higher, but for one reason or another, it's just not happening. There's no point in making excuses on their turf. If this was our own thread, I might get where you're coming from, but here? Just stop.
