"In response to several actions by security with regards to members of the Emerald City Supporters the photo shows the international symbol for a club in distress. An upside down tifo display." Great display, good way to show displeasure...

ouch yes that hurts quick burn the photo be portland sees it. We screwed this one up no two ways about it. But hey give us points for being bold that covers three full stands.
The moral of the story folks is never count your tifo before its hatched! :)

Can I ask why nobody heard of this before the game?
Why did it not say what it was protesting?
Furthermore, why try and display it again after halftime and twist it into a knot, what was that in protest to?
Lol, someone at MLSR ran with the story before even asking the group what happened. But, I guess there's a reason why those people write for MLSR and not for a real website. Forget actually verifying the story.
MLSR is the TMZ of soccer.

At least TMZ runs stories that are true once and awhile.

I believe MLSR once posted a story that a soccer ball is round. I might be wrong through.

Please. TMZ has some cred (they got MJ's death accurate, after all). MLSR is the Perez Hilton of soccer. I still get the chuckles at Perez putting on his front page that MJ's hospital visit was just a publicity stunt for his upcoming concerts and then sinking to even further lows as people called him out on it. Ahhhhh. That was funny.

yeah we messed it up, but so have dozens of other ultras around the world. Here's an interesting photo thread of failed tifos:

Big thumbs DOWN to mls "rumors" for falsely presuming that this was a protest... if it were, the Brougham End banner would have been hung upside down as well. Mls rumors does NOT speak for ECS so please don't be buying their B.S. again... :rolleyes:

If I had known that tripe was from BS I would have binned this thread straightaway. It was not until I made my way over to weareecs today that I learned BS was the source.
