5 January 2012 Last updated at 14:33 ET Help Football fans, known as the Ultras, are the latest arrivals to Egypt's post-revolution political scene.
Last week, they founded a political party that joins different Ultras groups with one goal: to help in shaping their country's future.
Since the January 2010 uprising, Ultras groups have spearheaded the protests against military rule, and have been blamed for clashes with the security forces, though the Ultras utterly deny such accusations.
BBC Arabic's Dina Demrdash reports.
