'''Horde Zla''' (English: Evil Hordes) is the organized [[Ultras]] group that supports [[Bosnia and Herzegovina|Bosnia]]n football club [[FK Sarajevo]].<ref name="hzz2">{{cite web|url=http://www.hordezla.ba/index.php/o-nama|title=O nama|language=Bosnian|publisher=Hordezla.ba|access-date=17 March 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140426221053/http://www.hordezla.ba/index.php/o-nama|archive-date=26 April 2014}}</ref> The group's logo consists of a stylized depiction of the [[Personifications of death|Grim Reaper]], borrowed from a [[Zagor (comics)|Zagor]] comic book at the time of the group's inception. Horde zla is one of two major football fan groups in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Apart from FK Sarajevo, the group also supports [[KK Bosna Royal]] and [[RK Bosna Sarajevo]]. The group's organizational structure is fairly decentralized with many subgroups present at the stadium's north stand – the gathering point of the club's most loyal and passionate fans. Some of the most well known subgroups are '''Outlaws''', '''Maroon Brothers''', '''Vutrasi''', '''Ultra North''', '''Fina Gradska Raja''', '''Downtown Crew''' and '''Central Force'''.

==History==
===Background===
[[File:Sarajevoview.PNG|thumb|right|300px|The [[Stari Grad, Sarajevo|Stari grad]] neighbourhoods overlooking downtown [[Sarajevo]]]]
From the moment FK Sarajevo was established on 24 October 1946 it quickly grew a following in the city of Sarajevo. The fact that nearly all pre-war Sarajevan clubs were banned by the new communist authorities left a large vacuum in a city that was traditionally a footballing centre in the [[Kingdom of Yugoslavia]]. The majority of fans stemmed from the numerous downtown Sarajevan [[Baščaršija]], [[Stari Grad, Sarajevo|Stari grad]] and [[Centar Municipality, Sarajevo|Centar]] neighbourhoods predominantly inhabited by [[Bosniaks]]. This is not to say that other ethnicities did not support the club. They did in huge numbers, but the history of organized support for the club is nevertheless closely tied to the aforementioned neighbourhoods. The only major Sarajevan football club not banned by the post-war authorities was [[FK Željezničar]], based in the [[Grbavica (Sarajevo)|Grbavica]] neighbourhood of the city, which would go on to become the maroon-white's biggest rival. FK Sarajevo supporters were historically known as ''Pitari'' while an individual was, and is still known as a ''Pitar''. The nickname, meaning a consumer of the local Bosnian dish [[pita]], was originally a derogatory label given by fans of working class Željezničar that implied the upper-class background of most FK Sarajevo supporters.<ref name=hzz2/> This notion was based on the fact that the old downtown neighbourhoods of the city were the traditional centres of commerce and artisanship, even though the socioeconomic landscape of the city had dramatically changed by the time the club was formed. FK Sarajevo being formed by the post-war communist authorities also meant that the club garnered support from the political and [[League of Communists of Bosnia and Herzegovina|party]] establishment of the [[Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina|SR Bosnia and Herzegovina]] which created a specific symbiosis between the progressive state establishment and the traditional, conservative Sarayevan [[Mahala]].

===Beginnings===
[[File:Horde_zla,_oct_1990.jpg|thumb|right|300px|The [[curva]] of the [[Koševo City Stadium|Koševo stadium]], October 1990.]]
The first contours of organized support for the club were drawn out in the late 1950s when the eastern stand of the [[Asim Ferhatović Hase Stadium|Koševo]] stadium drew in the most ardent of supporters. As [[Folklore of Sarajevo|Sarajevo folklore]] stipulates, no footballer was ever fully accepted by the eastern stand which was for decades known as a polygon for the city's particular sense of humour and as the main proving ground for every player wearing the maroon and white jersey. The legendary east stand was generally a meeting point for residents of the Sarajevan mahalas that would picnic with their friends, relatives and neighbours while watching matches, only fully supporting players that stemmed from the city's downtown neighbourhoods – a particular form of local patriotism that has, in a way, survived until today. By the mid 1980s, the eastern stand's rowdiness during matches of the time provoked large media coverage. During a league tie against [[Red Star Belgrade]] on 17 April 1986 it was reported that a maroon painted snake, reported by some as being a specimen of the venomous [[Vipera ammodytes|horned viper]], was thrown off the eastern stand onto the visitors bench. This was never verified by the police or club, while other rumours in circulation stated that the incident against Red Star was caused by someone from the crowd hitting the referee with a large stone. Again, this rumour was never verified either and has in subsequent years become an [[urban legend]], as is the case with the snake rumour. Nevertheless, alarmed by constant incidents and media coverage, the club management headed by then Director [[Svetozar Vujović]] opened the north stand of the Koševo stadium to the most fanatical of fans.<ref name=hz5>{{cite web|url=http://www.fcsarajevo.ba/navijaci|title=Navijači|language=Bosnian|publisher=Fcsarajevo.ba|access-date=17 March 2014|archive-date=4 March 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140304040245/http://www.fcsarajevo.ba/navijaci|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The north stand was traditionally not very popular with the footballing public, but was found to be the most adequate because it was the farthest from the field. This move coincided with the [[Ultras]] subculture reaching the Former Yugoslavia in the mid 1980s, and finding fertile ground among both members of the [[Punk subculture|Punk]] and [[Mod (subculture)|Mod]] subcultures and non-affiliated football supporters. Soon after, Horde Zla came into being. Namely, several prominent FK Sarajevo supporters of the younger generation, influenced by the Ultras subculture decided to meet, as the story goes, in an alternative nightclub of the time known as ''AG'' and create a new identity based on a popular [[Zagor (comics)|Zagor]] comic book of the same name.<ref name=hzss5>{{cite web|url=http://www.muskiportal.com/igrom-slucaja-popularni-strip-zagor-je-dao-ime-rodene-su-horde-zla/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121008215255/http://www.muskiportal.com/igrom-slucaja-popularni-strip-zagor-je-dao-ime-rodene-su-horde-zla/|url-status=usurped|archive-date=8 October 2012|title=Igrom slučaja, popularni strip Zagor je dao ime… Rođene su Horde Zla!|language=Bosnian|publisher=Muskiportal.com|access-date=20 July 2016}}</ref> Soon enough, Horde Zla became one of the most popular youth organizations in the city of [[Sarajevo]].<ref name=hzzz2>{{cite web|url=http://www.fcsarajevo.ba/navijaci|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121004003423/http://www.fcsarajevo.ba/navijaci|url-status=dead|archive-date=4 October 2012|title=FK Sarajevo supporters|language=Bosnian|publisher=Fcsarajevo.ba|access-date=17 March 2014}}</ref> By the end of the 1980s Horde zla had become one of the five largest and most organized fan groups in SFR Yugoslavia, alongside [[Delije]], [[Grobari]], [[Torcida Split]] and [[Bad Blue Boys]], out-marching to all of FK Sarajevo's matches across the country and travelling to Italy in support of [[Yugoslavia national football team|Yugoslavia]] during the [[1990 FIFA World Cup|1990 World Cup]]. At this time the group also became known for some of the most infamous examples of [[hooliganism|football violence]] in the country, including the 1991 stabbing of two [[FK Partizan]] supporters in front of the [[JNA Stadium]] in Belgrade and the 1989 riots in the city of Mostar before a league fixture against [[Velež Mostar|Velež]], resulting in the stabbing of a local resident and the destruction of huge amounts of public and private property. While most other Ultra firms in Yugoslavia popularized and marketed the growing nationalist fervor that would lead to the [[Yugoslav Wars]], Horde Zla mostly stayed apolitical. As political tensions escalated on the eve of the Bosnian war, Horde Zla shifted its apolitical course and became one of the first organisations in Bosnia and Herzegovina that openly endorsed and supported the return of the old, historical name for Bosnian Muslims – [[Bosniaks]], as well as calling for Bosnian independence.

===Bosnian independence===
[[File:Spomen ploča ARBiH.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Memorial plaque on the East
 side of the Asim Ferhatović Hase Stadium]]
With the start of the [[Bosnian War]] many Horde zla members together with their counterparts from other ultras groups stood at the forefront of fronts to defend their city and homeland. A memorial plaque on the north side of the Asim Ferhatović Hase Stadium bears tribute to the hundreds of members of the group killed in the fight for Bosnian independence. As peace was restored to the country and competitive football once again resumed, Horde zla took back their place on the North stand of the country's biggest stadium on the 10th anniversary of the firm's founding. The group again made headlines when, during the 1998 [[Sarajevo derby]] against Željezničar, they invaded the pitch after members of the opposing firm, [[The Maniacs]] assaulted the FK Sarajevo goalkeeper [[Mirsad Dedić]], resulting in a large on field skirmish that resulted in over thirty serious injuries.

===The new generation (2007–)===
[[File:Horde_zla_2023.jpg|300px|thumb|Horde zla on the north stand of the [[Koševo City Stadium|Koševo Stadium]], 8 October 2023]]
[[File:Horde_zla,_Grbavica.jpg|300px|thumb|Horde zla at the [[Grbavica Stadium]], 9 May 2009]]
By the mid 2000s a new generation of Ultras came up the ranks, unhappy with what they perceived as the group becoming a source of income for the older generation through petty theft, collaboration with an unpopular club management, drug dealing and exploitation of the Horde zla brand.<ref name="drugar31">{{cite web|url=http://fksinfo.com/novosti/25-godina-drugarstva-ljubavi-i-odanosti/2020|title=25 godina drugarstva, ljubavi i odanosti |publisher=Fksinfo.com|access-date=30 July 2016}}</ref> Furthermore, differences existed in the way the two sides saw the future of the group.<ref name=drugar31/> The younger generation namely wanted a more decentralized organization, while the older called for stronger centralization. By 2006 the new generation, organized through half a dozen subgroups, left the north stand in boycott of the ''agentry'', as they called the leadership of the group, and moved to the west stand of the stadium, where they became known as Horde Zla Zapad (English: ''Hordes of Evil West''). For a year and a half the two fractions supported their team separately, often going into battle across the city. By 2008 physical altercations and violence between the opposing camps turned the city into a battle ground, eventually leading to the younger generation taking control of the north stand. On 9 August 2007 Horde zla clashed with security personnel and police before a Champions League qualifying tie in [[Genk]]. In April 2010 Horde zla invaded the pitch after Sarajevo played a 1:1 draw against [[NK Široki Brijeg]], and eventually went on to demolish large portions of the stadium including the VIP box and the benches in clashes with the police and security personnel. The incident resulted in over 40 minor and serious injuries.<ref name=navijaci34>{{cite news|url=http://www.jutarnji.hr/sarajevo---horde-zla--demolirale-stadion-nakon-remija-protiv-sirokog/734084/|title=Horde zla demolirale stadion nakon remija protiv Širokog|language=Croatian| newspaper=Jutarnji list|access-date=12 August 2014}}</ref> That same evening members of the group took part in large scale riots during a war veteran's rally that was demanding more social benefits from the government.<ref name=navijaciss34>{{cite web|url=http://dnevnohr.com/Crna-Kronika/neredi-u-sarajevu-ozlijeeno-69-osoba-policiju-napale-i-horde-zla.html|title=Neredi u Sarajevu: ozlijeđeno 69 osoba|language=Croatian|publisher=Dnevnohr.com/|access-date=12 August 2014}}{{dead link|date=November 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> In July 2012, Horde Zla clashed with [[Levski Sofia]] supporters in the first leg of a UEFA Europa League match that was held in Sofia, Bulgaria.<ref name=Sarajevo19>{{cite web|url=http://www.otisak.ba/sport/12484-horde-zla-se-sukobile-sa-navijaima-levskog-v.html|title=Horde zla se sukobile sa navijačima Levskog|trans-title=Horde zla clashed with Levski fans|language=Bosnian|publisher=Otisak.ba|access-date=17 March 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140223065349/http://www.otisak.ba/sport/12484-horde-zla-se-sukobile-sa-navijaima-levskog-v.html|archive-date=23 February 2014}}</ref> They had previously occupied a hotel in downtown Sofia which they ransacked and demolished, not allowing the police to enter by raising barricades.<ref name=navijaci3ff2>{{cite web|url=http://www.muskiportal.com/bugari-prvo-izvidali-ispred-hotela-horde-zla-ih-prepoznale-i-istukle/|title=Bugari prvo izviđali ispred hotela, Horde zla ih prepoznale i istukle|language=Bosnian|publisher=Muskiportal.com|access-date=12 August 2014|archive-date=29 April 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140429104033/http://www.muskiportal.com/bugari-prvo-izvidali-ispred-hotela-horde-zla-ih-prepoznale-i-istukle/|url-status=usurped}}</ref> On 20 July 2013 Horde zla clashed with the fans of Albanian club [[FK Kukësi]] in [[Tirana]] before the start of a Europa League match.<ref name=navijaci32>{{cite web|url=http://www.index.hr/sport/clanak/kaos-u-tirani-pogledajte-sukob-hordi-zla-i-albanskih-navijaca-/690171.aspx|title=Kaos u Tirani: Pogledajte sukob Hordi zla i albanskih navijača|language=Croatian| publisher=Index.hr|access-date=12 August 2014}}</ref> On 25 September 2013 Horde zla invaded the pitch during a game versus [[FK Borac Banja Luka|FK Borac]], charging on the visiting fans situated on the South stand of the Asim Hase Ferhatović stadium.

=== Široki Brijeg riots ===

[[File:RIP Vedran Puljić.jpg|thumb|Graffiti in Sarajevo denoting "RIP Vedran Puljić"]]
On 4 October 2009 Horde zla again made headlines during the infamous [[2009 NK Široki Brijeg–FK Sarajevo football riots|Široki Brijeg Football Riots]] which are considered the worst example of [[hooliganism|football violence]] in the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The riots resulted in the death of Horde zla member Vedran Puljić from gunshot wounds, with over 40 other participants of the mayhem sustaining serious injuries, including four nonfatal gunshot wounds.<ref name=riots1>{{cite web|url=http://www.eupm.org/Details.aspx?ID=1350&TabID=4|title=The Curse of Hooliganism|publisher=eupm.org|access-date=12 August 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140812205703/http://www.eupm.org/Details.aspx?ID=1350&TabID=4|archive-date=12 August 2014}}</ref> The riots started with confrontations between members of Horde zla and the hometown Ultras, [[Škripari]], which subsequently spilled out over the majority of the town. Horde zla burned cars, nearly blew up a gas station and demolished shops while Škripari and residents of Široki Brijeg stoned visiting fan's buses and shot at them with firearms. Horde Zla also claim multiple counts of severe police brutality which led to the death of Horde zla member Vedran Puljić from police inflicted gunshot wounds.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://bh-news.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=176%3Aa-suporter-from-sarajevo-killed-in-siroki-brijeg-in-fan-riots&catid=15%3Asport&Itemid=13&lang=en |title=Početna |publisher=BH News |access-date=30 April 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305074326/http://bh-news.com/index.php?catid=15:sport&id=176:a-suporter-from-sarajevo-killed-in-siroki-brijeg-in-fan-riots&itemid=13&lang=en&option=com_content&view=article |archive-date=5 March 2016 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://riotonline.com/blog/2009/10/fc-sarajevo-fan-dies-in-riots/ |title=FC Sarajevo fan dies in riots! &#124; Riot terrace fashion blog |publisher=Riotonline.com |date= |access-date=30 April 2013}}</ref> There are conflicting reports about who started the violence. Horde zla accused local residents and police of mistreatment on their way to the match, saying that the incident was planned by local politicians and that their buses were separated and parked too far from the stadium which left them open to stoning and attacks. They also claim that initially there were only 30 local policemen present, and they did nothing to prevent the violence.<ref name="isn.ethz.ch">{{cite web|url=http://www.isn.ethz.ch/isn/Current-Affairs/Security-Watch/Detail/?ots591=4888CAA0-B3DB-1461-98B9-E20E7B9C13D4&lng=en&id=108850 |title=The Dirty Side of Football / ISN |publisher=Isn.ethz.ch |date=23 October 2009 |access-date=30 April 2013}}</ref> Local police and residents said Horde Zla fans were the first to attack.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.balkaninsight.com/en/main/news/22646/ |title=All Balkans Home |publisher=Balkan Insight |date= |access-date=30 April 2013}}</ref> A local policeman, Oliver Knezović, accused of murdering Puljić, fled to Zagreb, Croatia from where he could not be extradited to the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as there is no agreement on this issue between the two countries.

==USD Bosna==
{{see also|KK Bosna Royal|RK Bosna Sarajevo}}

Horde Zla and FK Sarajevo garner a close relationship with '''USD Bosna''', or University Sport Society Bosna ({{langx|bs|Univerzitetsko sportsko društvo Bosna}}). The most notable members of said society are [[KK Bosna Royal]], that won the [[Euroleague Basketball]] title in 1979<ref name=bosna1>{{cite web|url=http://www.klix.ba/sport/kosarka/kk-bosna-je-prije-34-godine-bio-najbolji-evropski-klub/130405011|title=KK Bosna je prije 34 godine bio najbolji evropski klub |publisher=Klix.ba|access-date=12 August 2014}}</ref> and [[RK Bosna Sarajevo]], that reached the 1/8 finals of the [[EHF Champions League]] in 2011.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ehfcl.com/men/2010-11/article/13742/VELUX+EHF+Men%E2%80%99s+Champions+League+%E2%80%93+Last+16+Fixtures|title=Velux EHF Men's Champions League – Last 16 Fixtures|date=7 March 2011|work=ehfcl.com|access-date=8 March 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110310171836/http://www.ehfcl.com/men/2010-11/article/13742/VELUX+EHF+Men%E2%80%99s+Champions+League+%E2%80%93+Last+16+Fixtures|archive-date=10 March 2011}}</ref>

The relationship traditionally stems from the fact that both sides share unique maroon and white club colours, which lead KK Bosna Royal to garner most of its fan base from FK Sarajevo in its rise to the top in the mid and late 1970s. Through time the two sides became colloquially interchangeable, as Horde zla equally followed both, forming a so-called ''Maroon Family''. Even though RK Bosna did not represent a big player in Yugoslav [[handball]], the club's post-war ascent was thoroughly supported by Horde zla.

After an initiative proposed by Sarajevo fans, on 29 August 2013 FK Sarajevo and RK Bosna Sarajevo signed a cooperation agreement based on the principle of strengthening ties between the aforementioned ''family'' members.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.oslobodjenje.ba/sport/rk-bosma-i-fk-sarajevo-potpisali-saradnju|title=RK Bosna i FK Sarajevo potpisali saradnju|language=Bosnian|publisher=Oslobođenje|access-date=8 March 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131230131932/http://www.oslobodjenje.ba/sport/rk-bosma-i-fk-sarajevo-potpisali-saradnju|archive-date=30 December 2013}}</ref> On 6 November 2013 the same was done between FK Sarajevo and KK Bosna Royal, by which the forty-year-old relationship was officialized.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.fcsarajevo.ba/vijesti/clanovi-fk-sarajevo-besplatno-na-utakmice-kk-bosna-i-rk-bosna/1298|title=Članovi FK Sarajevo besplatno na utakmice KK Bosna|language=Bosnian|publisher=Fcsarajevo.ba|access-date=8 March 2011|archive-date=12 November 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131112042121/http://www.fcsarajevo.ba/vijesti/clanovi-fk-sarajevo-besplatno-na-utakmice-kk-bosna-i-rk-bosna/1298|url-status=dead}}</ref>
