Almeyda’s Treatment

It’s well known that our group has been a target for this league since day one. We’ve always been independent, outspoken, and have stuck by our principles… qualities that this league seems eager to relentlessly suppress. Our reward for daring not to be like the majority of the manufactured fanbases and plastic groups of puppets…

The Stanford Atmosphere

No tifo. No flags. No smoke. Not even streamers. Dull, colorless, boring atmosphere. Definitely not our idea for such a big game as the Cali Clasico. Everything is a safety hazard, every single move is micromanaged. Every “violation” brings lengthy bans. Passion, honesty, sacrifice, and loyalty are seen as negative traits in the increasingly corporate…

Our Trip to Reno

Friday 2/8: We headed to Reno to support our team in what most would call a “meaningless” friendly. Despite the weather advisory and the DOT urging people not to drive over the Sierras, we decided to go anyway. It was a 5 to 7-hour drive for those who were lucky enough to take the day…

Looking Forward to Next Year

We hope you all took a good look around you in the stands during those long losing streaks this season. You might have had a hard time seeing those sitting or standing near you, because there were too many empty seats between you. More and more each game. There was a lot of ugliness. Sad…

The 2018 Season

This season has undoubtedly been an absolute disappointment and disgrace.

Last Game’s Walkout

On September tenth, the Quakes played a crucial game against the Seattle Sounders. Smoke bombs were lit in our sections. When it came time to face the consequences, the group accepted them and was prepared to move on. While entering the supporters gate at Avaya for the Sporting Kansas City game on September twenty-fourth, we…

Clarification Regarding the Recent MLS Video About 2016’s Cali Clasico

After the MLS website released a video about this year’s Cali Clasico, we received numerous emails and questions from fans wondering why we were not part of that video and if there was some sort of censorship coming from MLS.  While we have had plenty of run-ins with the league in the past, our absence…

All-Star Game and SJU

Since we have received a lot of questions from other Quakes fans, we wanted to clarify that we, the San Jose Ultras, will not attend the MLS All-Star Game at Avaya.  Last week, we were contacted by sponsors of the event who offered us money and other promotional materials.  We were also invited to appear…

Correction

Following Saturday’s game, Univision reported that we “transformed” a chant considered by many people to be homophobic into a positive chant full of energy.  The chant they featured in their video, which they wrongfully believe is a transformation of the “puto chant,” is this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWZthX7i-s0  We would like to correct Univision and state for the record that we have been using the…
