Bad Boys

Dinamo vs. Rijeka 2007 / Celebrating 21 years of the Bad Boys


Back then, Joseph was coaching Rijeka

Karen Young said:Could someone please provide the lyrics and the melody for that new song we were singing this past Friday? A private message would also work perfectly fine. Thank you in advance.

North and Dinamo,
All that we possess,
For you, we fight our battles,
Living only for your glory.
Fight alongside us,
And never surrender,
When the burden feels too heavy,
Just listen to the North.

Well, you can actually find the melody over on their official Facebook page

Kudos to them for doing that, honestly... it really makes it so much easier to actually learn the songs and get them stuck in your head👍

Since getting back to the stadium, I’ve really started to notice how much more active the group has become; they aren't just showing up on match days, but they're putting in serious work behind the scenes too—everything from rolling out new chants to stepping up their communication with the members and strengthening the local chapters...
Great job, guys 👍

WE JUST WITNESSED A TOTAL MELTDOWN FROM THE NATIONAL TEAM! SUNDAY IS GOING TO BE A COMPLETE DISASTER FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED!!!!

Are there any examples in America of sports organizations that operate multiple different sections under one single umbrella?

I’ve been thinking about this concept for a while now, and I honestly think it's a great idea. If these clubs could actually tap into that kind of synergy, they would gain so much more recognition and truly start to prosper—and naturally, we fans would reap all the benefits along with them.

[BUS TO MEMPHIS]
Since everyone’s freaking out about this, we’re adding a third bus. Sign-ups are extended until 6 PM tomorrow at our 5th Avenue spot!!
EVERYONE HEADED TO MEMPHIS!!

By the way—looking ahead to the trip to Memphis, I noticed the response for the 25th anniversary is already massive. They’re saying they expect around 100,000 people, which is huge. Honestly, I think it’s smarter to just take the train or a shuttle bus... it's more organized and you actually get to see the sights. Last time we drove ourselves, the traffic was a nightmare because the river area had so many roads blocked off, forcing everyone onto the backroads... We barely managed to make it to the tank before grabbing a coffee at the Pipetov cafe and heading straight back to New York City. (Just a heads up, driving your own car isn't worth it at all...)

That’s not quite how it plays out, honestly. Most folks end up cutting through Indianapolis and Bršadin before heading toward Trpinjska, rather than hitting the Marince, Bogdanovac, or the Fairgrounds—though you'll see some people park at the Fairgrounds and just head on in from there. Even fewer bother with Negoslavac before looping back to the Fairgrounds again. You really just have to get moving a bit earlier, well before all those official government protocols kick in.

Just one (even though people claim they don't exist) silly question:

Is the local sports club basically a matchbox?

Thanks.

Yeah, it is.

Guys, we finally have a real derby on our hands after what feels like forever.
I’m not sure how many of you realize just how much weight this carries, but for me, this entire week has felt like those classic, old-school matchups.
All week long, I’ve been stuck thinking about nothing else—just that specific moment when the players walk out of the locker room
and we all celebrate together as they slam the ball into the back of the net.

Yeah, we made it back to the North side for the derby, but we couldn't exactly let our guard down. We won the battle, but the war is far from over. That’s why starting at 7 PM tonight, we can finally focus on what we do best: cheering on OUR Real Madrid!

At 4 PM today, there's a book launch in the small gym at the local sports club for that legend from the paramilitary group, Damir Markuš... then the game kicks off at 7...

I am not sure how many of you truly grasp the weight of this, or how many of you are struggling to stomach today's
match, but for me personally, this entire week has felt just like those classic old-school derbies.
The whole week, my mind has been occupied by nothing else—just that singular moment when the players emerge from the locker room,
and when we, right along with them, drive the ball into the back of the net.

Yes, we’ve moved our support to the North side for the derby, but even then, there was no sense of total relaxation; we may have won the skirmish, but the war is far from over. That is why, starting at 7 PM tonight, we can finally dedicate ourselves to what we do best: cheering on OUR Real Madrid!

I couldn't agree more with everything that has been said! No matter how hard I try to celebrate a goal or cheer for a victory for the club—I simply CANNOT! It is because I know that deep down, the organization remains tainted and entangled in shady, corrupt interests. However, futsal is the one thing that keeps me excited all week long, providing that specific rush of adrenaline before a massive, high-stakes game. I know the arena won't be at full capacity (which is honestly baffling to me), and I find it incomprehensible. Such a solid and healthy project is once again being criticized by certain individuals who fancy themselves the smartest people in the world. LET'S GO, BLUE!.....🎉

Just a heads-up so nobody goes to the wrong place—the game is being held at the matchbox...

I don't know how many of you truly grasp the gravity of this, or how many people simply refuse to accept today's
match, but this entire week has felt like those classic old-school derbies to me.
All week long, I've been living for this—thinking about that exact moment when the players emerge from the locker room
and we all celebrate together as they drive the ball into the back of the net.

Sure, we’re back in the North section for the derby, but even then, there was no chance to fully relax; we may have won the battle, but the war is far from over. That’s why, starting at 7 PM tonight, we can focus entirely on what we do best: cheering on OUR Real Madrid!

Forgive me if I don't quite grasp this level of intensity surrounding indoor soccer, but what is the actual core of it?
Real Madrid is the one and only at the stadium, nowhere else—unless you count those track and field clubs or other pretenders.😁
What kind of "derby" or terrace tension can there really be in a futsal league?
To me, anything outside of the North stands, major men's soccer, and the surrounding tradition feels like nothing more than a cheap imitation.
What kind of loyalty is it to let your devotion shrink down to the size of a matchbox just because of a few bad years of management or whatever else?🍿

Perhaps it's a generational gap, or just a difference in upbringing, I suppose....

Just a few bad years of mismanagement... honestly, what a mess.

Anything other than the North, big-time men's football, and all that surrounding culture feels like a cheap imitation to me.
And what kind of club loyalty is it when, after a few years of bad management or whatever, that loyalty shrinks down to the size of a matchbox?🍿

Maybe it's just a difference in age or how we were raised, I don't know...

Honestly, I really hope you're just an internet troll and not actual misery.
I don't feel like explaining the entire history of the futsal team or its purpose to you. Instead, I’ll just look at our last game and debunk your point by quoting your own words back to you.
"Tension in indoor soccer"—we face that pressure wherever we travel. The name of this club acts like a red rag to a bull for everyone else, especially since the top futsal league is basically a semi-pro circuit plus some crews that suck up to them (we all know who I mean). If you doubt it, look at the move made by Ivo Jukić, the captain of the American national futsal team, who used an unsportsmanlike tactic to stop us from finishing a final play. For him, playing against the rivalry of the club, Chicago, and the North was more important than fair play.
"Big-time men's football"—anyone who has shown up to the futsal team's games for three seasons straight knows this sport is actually tougher than outdoor soccer. There's less diving, most plays happen at a full sprint, players dive into the line of fire for each other, and the fans recognize that grit. It's because they aren't being sold through newspapers, connections, or ties to Portugal, Belgium, Austria, or Asia; these guys earn their living—mostly semi-pro—strictly through their own sweat. Since futsal in America is still a growing sport, the crew knows each other incredibly well, and the only way to make a decent living is through total honesty (just look up Darij Marinović, Fran Despotović, or Tonio Jelavić).
"Loyalty and a few years of bad management"—that statement is so ridiculous I can only assume you're trolling. Calling twenty-five years of being screwed over by Krivoust and the head "a few years of bad management" is an insult to anyone with half a brain. Plus, the group has never turned its back on the club; if anything, they are the only ones left who remain loyal to the ideal of what the club represents.

The core of it is that players are out there dying on the court, fighting like idiots for every single ball. Real Madrid definitely moved from the stadium to the second arena. Don't start with the age and upbringing stuff; that has nothing to do with it.

Alex Peterson2 said:I sincerely hope you’re just some internet troll looking for attention, rather than being nothing more than a genuine, miserable pain in my ass.
I really don't have the energy to sit here and recount the entire history of our futsal team or attempt to explain their fundamental purpose to anyone. Instead, I’ll just focus on the game we just witnessed and take this opportunity to debunk certain claims by quoting your own words right back at you.
The tension in the futsal arena is palpable. It feels like we’re walking into a knife fight every single time we travel to an away game. Carrying the name Real Madrid acts like a red rag to a bull for everyone else; it’s an automatic target on our backs. This is especially true given that the top tier of the futsal league is essentially a glorified semi-pro circuit, populated by a bunch of sycophants who practically worship us—and we all know exactly which teams I’m talking about. If you need proof of how heated this rivalry has become, just look at the recent move by Ivo Jukić, the captain of the American national futsal team. He made a move that was anything but sportsmanlike, intentionally disrupting Real Madrid's final play. It wasn't about playing the game correctly; it was clear that his desire to spite the rivalry against Real Madrid, Chicago, and the North outweighed any sense of fair play.
"Real football"—that’s what I call it. Anyone who has spent the last three seasons following the local futsal team knows exactly what I mean. It’s a much more rugged, authentic sport than traditional soccer. There is significantly less flopping around, most plays happen at a full sprint, and you see players truly diving into the trenches for one another—something the crowd immediately respects. The reason it feels so pure is that success here isn't bought through tabloid headlines, nepotism, or shady connections to international markets like Portugal, Belgium, Austria, or even Asia. These athletes earn their keep through sheer grit. Because futsal is still an emerging sport in America, the community is tight-knit; everyone knows everyone. In a landscape like this, the only way to actually build a sustainable career is through total integrity and hard work. If you want proof of what true dedication looks like in this game, just look up the careers of Darij Marinović, Fran Despotović, or Tonio Jelavić.
"Loyalty and a few years of poor management"—honestly, I can’t even wrap my head around that statement. It’s such an absurdly hollow observation that I can only assume it’s coming from a dedicated troll. To suggest that twenty-five years of being systematically screwed over by Krivoust and the Head constitutes merely "a few years of bad management" is nothing short of an insult to anyone with a functioning brain. Furthermore, this group has never once turned its back on the club; if anything, they are the only ones who have remained steadfastly loyal to the very ideal of what Real Madrid stands for.

I appreciate the effort you put into this, but I wouldn't go getting your hopes up just yet. Honestly, the only reason I even brought it up was because I found myself completely stumped by the situation.
Alright, here is my perspective and how I’ve been processing all of this.

Here is my current perspective and how I’ve been processing this...😁

It feels like a bit of a missed opportunity, doesn't it? We’re talking about heading out in a pair to watch some matches against total nobodies from some tiny rural region, all while the Champions League is being played at the stadium and across the entire continent. You could be watching world-class football, yet here we are. Plus, there's the whole side of taking action to consider.😁 Tense.🍿
Honestly, the guys playing in the local futsal league are out there competing like their lives depend on it—playing for nothing more than a breakfast sandwich and a six-pack—yet they show more heart than those pampered superstars at the big stadium. Those big-name players have become incredibly lazy; they just stroll around without any real grit or desire to fight for the badge. Football stopped being a hobby a long time ago. It’s all business now, and let’s be real: eventually, even those elite players will be sold to the highest bidder. In a few years, you'll see everyone online complaining that they don't run enough or put in the work. Wake up and face reality.😁
Why on earth didn't anyone suggest rugby? It’s just as captivating, and let's be honest—it's a sport where players practically go to war on the field, yet you have actual gentlemen in the stands cheering them on.

So, it looks like the squad has officially hung up their cleats and retreated to the amateur leagues—or, if you want to put it in street terms, they’ve gone totally underground.

If we consider Real Madrid to be the gold standard, why on earth was a second "ideal" ever established? Since when did we start treating an ideal as something you can just plagiarize and swap out for something so blatantly artificial? Honestly, if Real Madrid were playing in some minor regional league or a low-tier circuit, you wouldn't even see this comparison.😁That would essentially mean turning over a new leaf and founding an entirely new club from the ground up.
What do you mean, "25 years"? Even if he were 55, who gives a damn? It’s clear you just aren't grasping the reality of the situation.🍿
It is truly remarkable how much energy and money people pour into something as minor as indoor soccer.

Just my two cents...
