Apparently it’s not enough that our Front Office has turned on us, now even one of our own players, a player we have elevated to Godlike status in Chicago, despite his penchant for diving, whining, and tantrums on the field, is blaming us for the racist actions of security.
A crowd of 19,742 was on hand, although the atmosphere hardly reflected the attendance in the first half. The Fire’s notoriously raucous supporters group, Section 8, was relatively quiet in the first 45 minutes. The silence was part of a protest against Monterrey Security, which Section 8 is accusing of racist behavior toward Hispanic fans.
As had been predetermined, Section 8 spent the second half standing and cheering as it usually does.
“The fans are [garbage],” said an annoyed Blanco, who blames fans for friction with security. “They get drunk and become insulting. It’s the same way in Mexico. I don’t think security has anything to do with it.”
