Brawl Between Nycfc And Rbny Supporters

[FootyLovin]

as long as they are only hurting eachother, i dont see that much of a problem

This is extremely short sighted. The idea that a street brawl might not have unintended casualties is like seeing a drunk driver plow into a telephone pole and deciding drunk driving must be okay since the driver only hurt himself. There are so many bad scenarios here I don't even know where to start.

I had no idea there was even such thing as hispanic skinheads. the more you know.

yea as a hispanic i cant even comprehend how this happens, though from what i heard was in some of these groups they are people of latin american countries but of european decent therefore they consider themselves european not hispanic

I don't like how much coverage this is getting. There was a link on the daily mail website claiming some of them were using fake English accents. The whole thing reflects poorly on nycfc fans as a whole.

see the thing is, if reports are to be believed, many of the GSU guys are actually english and irish so its not really using "fake accents"

still, all those that hate soccer in the US will have a field day with this.

Just for referencehttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3191764/Has-British-style-hooliganism-infiltrated-American-soccer-Fans-brawl-streets-ahead-New-York-derby-match.html

And just for the record, I am aware that the mail is hardly a reputable news outlet.

That was a piss poor reenactment of Green Street Hooligans. Disappointing, but not surprising that folks are using this sport as an excuse to act out.

I mentioned seeing my idiot neighbor a few weeks ago after a home match who said he only attends games to fight and what not. I hope they start asking for information on these people because I will sell his scum ass down the river real quick and have no qualms about it. They are going to ruin this for true fans.

Hey!!! I am your nayber! And i'm comin for you now!!!

Naw. Just kidding.

But careful what you say on the interwebs.

 

[ManhattanValley]

if its 5v5, yea it sucks, but if its like 100v100 i can only imagine the rush

When I was 12, I also used to get excited watching and reading about hooligans in England. You'll grow out of it one day too. And like me, I'm sure you'd be hilariously terrified if you came within 20 yards of genuine violence.

Assholes and morons all.

I was walking back to my car after last home game at YS and nearly walked right into a fight on the street two blocks south of YS. Now that sucks for me but it really sucks for my 12 year old daughter and her friend who were with me and also nearly got caught in the middle of this stupidity.

Idiot boys need to grow up.

 

[BlueWarrior]

For me, seeing the fans act like that is tougher than the loss. And that was a tough loss.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

What could possibly justify these guys acting like this? Why was this even necessary?

 

[LostAnvil]

Until the video is shown during stadium discussions

 

[gbservis]

Until the video is shown during stadium discussions

This is my biggest concern. I don't like the way it reflects on our fan base but if a bunch of idiots want to beat the crap out of each other I don't really care. The major problem is going to be getting a new stadium. If anyone thinks the NIMBY's wont use this to try and block a stadium you are kidding yourself. This video is coming out, all the arrest stats outside of YS after games are coming out, videos of smoke bombs under the train tracks are coming out. It's not going to be pretty.

 

[FootyLovin]

Thank you LostAnvil and gbservis for making a great case (not that one should have been necessary) that asinine violence has consequences even when it's only with those who want to partake.

Friggin morons.
