description In 2010 a few ultras from Çarşı, a well known fan group of the Beşiktaş football club, formed the Beleştepe (“Free hill” in English) in order to develop collective action against capitalist and industrial football. The name of this group comes from a hill next to the İnönü stadium. From this hill, it is possible to see 70% of the inside of the stadium and fans who do not have enough money to buy a ticket settle on this hill to watch the match.

This article will analyse different modes of politization of the two groups.
