Looks like Benfica will be using their cage again vs Porto. Treating people like animals. http://www.record.xl.pt/Futebol/Nacional/1a_liga/Benfica/interior.aspx?content_id=743879
Have you ever even watched a derby or a Classico? To say that Ultras, of whatever team, act like animals during these games is an understatement. Take your green-tinted glasses off.
If people werent trying to burn down stadiums, then a cage wouldnt be neccesary now would it? Don't be a baby. It's a safety issue.
oh c'mon dude. this has nothing to do with burning stadiums. (which by the way you guys seem to 4get that you guys started with burning a piece of the lower part of alvalade a couple of seasons ago) a cage is not neccessary. if tickets were spread out through out the entire stadium, there would be no issues and no need for cages. a ultra her and there would cause no issues casue he'she is alone. instead, heres a section that's cages for your supporters. not treated like animals eh?
Are you guys surprised? Their whole club consists of South American mongrels so of course they're used to being caged up. This is fucking Portugal, not Egypt, not Argentina. There's no need for the cages, but somehow SLB get away with that shit. As for the Porto fans, they better get used to being caged and restricted access to restrooms, drinks/food, and being crammed 2 people per every 1 seat because they will be treated like shit by this sorry excuse for a club. All we can hope for is Porto fans to burn the whole stadium down.
Honestly guys, ******** management from any of the teams. Its about the game on the field. Nothing is better than a big derby. I feel a bad cough coming on.
Besides, whats wrong with a cage match. I would pay good money to see Javi piledrive Hulk off the top of the cage, wait, thats WWE. Never mind.
the cage causes frustration in the fans, it can actually make things worse IMO and the Porto ultras may feel the need to One-up the Sporting ultras this time by doing something similar or worse...
I don't know man, Hulk will give Javi the boot to the face and the the leg drop and it's game over. Can't bet against the Hulkamaniacs
Not sure what the SuperDagroes have in mind but I'm sure they will not take this cage thing too lightly. Also, it's on a Friday, only the most loyal and hardcore will be there so who knows what will happen.
Never liked LFV ever ever ever. I understand his concerns but personally, what I would do is start banning for life fans that are caught on camera causing problems. Instead of spending money on a cage, spend the money on more security cameras and prosecuting and banning trouble makers. I think the big three should do the same. Nothing hurts these asses more than not being able to attend the games. They are idiots but die hard fans.
Well said. If banning isn't effective because stadium checks are not that personalized, then maybe a second best alternative is to fine them heavily. Or being made to do community service for the rival club.
Let's shut them up by wiping the floor with them later today. They've been shitting their pants letting us come back from a 5 point deficit in 2 weeks. Let's take back first place!!
------------------------Helton------------------- -----Alvaro Pereira---Rolando--Otamendi--Maicon-- -------------------------Fernando---------------- ---------------------Moutinho-----Lucho--------- ----------Djalma-----------Janko---------Hulk---- Bench: James Rodriguez Cristian Rodriguez Bracali (GK) Sapunaru Sandro Kleber Defour Glad to see Otamendi back in the XI and Maicon shift to RB (prefer him over Sapunaru although he lacks speed). Djalma is definitely a surprise inclusion for me, I was hoping Varela would be healthy but he's obviously not. Still, how does Djalma get into the XI while James sits on the bench? Perhaps VP wants a good offensive option on the bench? I can understand that, IMO neither Djalma/Cristian/Kleber/Defour offers much offensively around the 60th minute if we're down and need a goal. James on the other hand can be a game changer in the last half hour running at tired defenders. Benfica's XI, if anyone cares: Artur Garay Luisao Emerson Maxi Pereira Aimar Garcia Gaitan Witsel Cardozo Nolito Bench: Saviola Eduardo (GK) Nelson Oliveira Matic Rodrigo Cesar Vitor
