Well, Kipax, what I put out on this thread was, I thought, (and still think) very much in praise of the Ultras, but I'm afraid you've chosen to misinterpret my message .
Please re-read my post ; you will see that I did not say anything about a meeting with the newly-formed Ultras. You have completely reversed my true position , which was that I WANTED the Ultras to become a part of the Official Supporters' Club. I posted on the forum to that effect
very strongly at the time , and I asked those Supporters' Club Members and Committee Members who knew the individual Ultras far better than I did to make sure that the Ultras were aware of our anxiety to keep them "in the fold".
Where you've got the opposite idea from I cannot even guess.
When we (the OSC) discussed the improving relationship with the Ultras at our last Meeting on Feb 14th, one of the leading members of both camps (and I won't mention his name unless he asks me to) acknowledged that we'd originally made strong representations , but he explained politely that the Ultras didn't want to be connected with the OSC ( i.e. they
declined ) because , largely , we were too old !
I have re-read my post very carefully , and it is all correct as far as I can see - as well as being friendly towards our fellow-supporters.
I think that you might reconsider your own viewpoint, please.
