Taurunum Boys, full name Taurunum Boys 1987 or simply Taurunumi (lit. transl in Latin: people from Zemun)[1] is the collective name for ultras and supporters of FK Zemun. The Zemun fans united in 1987, and the Latin name for Zemun, Taurunum, was used as the group's name and trademark.
Zemun fans gathered around FK Zemun and organized their first joint cheering for the club in 1986, when the football club was called Galenika. They are located in the northern stand of the City Stadium in Zemun. The motto of this fan group is "One city, one club, only Zemun". Immediately after their foundation, they received a fan section from Pančevo called Rangers, and there are supporters throughout Belgrade and Serbia as a whole.[2] The fraternal and friendly group of Taurunums since 1998 is the Crveni Đavoli (Engl. Red Devils), an organized supporters group of FK Radnički 1923 from Kragujevac. They also have friendly relations with the fans of FC Iraklis from Thessaloniki, whose group is called Autonomo. Also, in addition to FK Zemun, Taurunums organizes their trips to Serbian national football team matches too.[3]
