    It's also crazy that they will just restart the match right away. If someone shot one of those off off at an NFL game, they would cancel the game and bring the FBI in to investigate.

    Lol. This is why you have threads about people being "uncomfortable with their space" in GA pits whereas in Europe it's much more intense, but people are okay with it.
    But anyways, knowing a Croatian who was at the game, apparently this group of ultras was warning the federation there'd be an "incident". It's such a shame that a small group of these idiots are ruining it for the team and their fans who are good people. The team is dynamite and they might get kicked out of the tournament because of a few fans stupid enough to think throwing flares on the field will get the changes they want in their federation.

    If people wants space, then don't buy arena tickets for a punk-rock concert..what is that not understood..arena tickets for a PUNK-ROCK concert..i'v read the same complains about the SA tour..get tickets for GA in BA, and you want space???..lol..
    But we talk about football here and i agreed with the rest of your comment..

    Croatian fans are a fucking disgrace. Bunch of fucking animals.

    I'm a Croat and I agree, born in the states

    Great people there, but a large amount of brain dead people too

    Not too bright

    These people are so not evolved, they are living 25 years in the past

    On a side note ( crazy...wish weren't true story)

    My brother Met a Croatian girl online a few years back
    After 2 weeks of talking, he went there and they were engaged
    She comes here USA, that whole fiancée Visa thing
    She realizes you have to bust your ass in the States to haven$$ ( thought $ grows on trees here)
    My brother was not rich but not poor either
    She sold herself as religious and a good women
    After she no get what she wants
    She convinces him to leave everything to move to Croatia with her
    Told my family they would be out in matter of weeks
    They leave... My mother & me, and some other family were defrauded over $ 160,000.00 due to my asshole brother working at a bank and using info he had from us to open loans, cash out and bounce

    I don't blame her solely ( don't speak to my asshole brother anymore) but she was a WITCH. And worse of all this has happened to a few people I know from Croatian people.

    Not trying to paint all in the same light since I go there every few years and love so many of them......but I know what a lot of them are about as I'm sure a lot of poor Eastern European countries have scammers like this


    I met her family for a few days during her brief time stateside, they are houligans and lowlife scammers. No shame asking for dough and such

    This whole thing has caused a huge rift in my family.... My Mom begged me not to press charges(even though it probably wouldn't matter since they flew the coupe and there is no extradition here) so me and my Mom also don't really speak

    She was worried bought their newborn child, which I get but this is FRAUD and I lost $20,000.00

    A real shitty situation
    But one I've seen play out over the years with other people I know getting scammed

    This thing has torn me up.... This brother I even brought to PJ20 (and many other shows)on my dime and took him to his beloved Packers home opener during that trip and countless things over the years

    God forbid if I ever run into this chick one day or him.... My mom fell for this shit cause she was hellbent my brother marries his own nationality

    Sickening

    That felt good to let out.... I feel I should press charges but it's not easy, my family making it harder too

    Thank you!! Unfortunately many people have no concept of culture and think the way it is in one place is the same as all over the world.
    But anyways, I was reading quotes from Perisic (I'm Interista) and the rest of their squad. They're very ashamed. Rakitic even said he thinks they'll be kicked from the tournament. So sad, because you know this is only going to cause more conflict. Makes you wonder if the players regret representing their country, which is an unbelievable thing to say.

    you have to remember that love is blindness and that he is still your brother and loves you even though he walked all over you he was being selfish and looking for his own happiness and thought he found it and walked all over the people he loved but one day perhaps she will dump him and run with everything what would you do ?? let money and stupid selfish mistakes get past
    your sibling relationship that you shared ?? makes no sense to me and yes he deserves a scoulding but not a disowning im sure he is haunted deep down inside himself if hes anything like you all..
  • JWPearlJWPearl Posts: 19,893
    personally i couldnt care less what my family did to me financially wise but if they broke my heart then i could disown them but not over money truely money is shit...
  • JWPearlJWPearl Posts: 19,893
    and if they wanted to kill me over money well then id be disowning quick smart bc its a evil root

    It's not borrowing $$ and getting in over your head and not being Able to pay back
    It's complete Bank Fraud
    Used his job to enrich himself

    Yhey weren't poor...just wanted to take from us to live the good life


    He did it to lounge by the Adriatic Sea and not work like normal people do to get what they want out of life

    I wouldn't let $$ get in the way if it was truly to maybe pay for a surgery to save a life or an emergency

    So I'm fine with him out of my life, not easy to come to that place but I have a level head and have analyzed this every which way

    Crazy that this shit is still happening when the focus leading up to the tournament seemed to be on security. It's a shame that a small group of assholes have to ruin it for everyone else.

    It is crazy. Because especially if it was a forewarned "attack" or incident, you'd think the security in the Croatia end of the park would be top notch. Especially since this is something that's happened with these fans in the very recent past

    Shooting rockets and bombs in densely packed stadiums ... I'm pretty sure has nothing to do with culture, and much more in common with idiocy. I've been in many GA pits and never worried about having a flaming projectile fired at me.

    Honestly, that's the way it is there man. I was in Italy last year for 5 weeks and went to 7 Serie a games and one Serie B game. There were flares and smoke bombs in at least 2 or 3 sections per match going off for the entire 90 minutes. At no point was it worrying, because that's what those people do. They light flares in the stands. Those people aren't idiots- the idiots are the ones who do things like throwing them on the field like we saw today.
    Actually throwing them at people and on the field, I only came across that a few times. But it's not worth cancelling the match for.
    What my point is, I'm not trying to compare a european top division soccer match to a concert, but the people in Europe aren't alarmed by someone throwing a flare or smoke bomb onto the field, whereas like you said, if it was an NFL game it'd be on the situation room on CNN for a whole night.
