The P.o.r.t to be honest sound more welcoming!
If you brand yourself as Ultras, unfortunately there is a high risk you are going to find conflict somewhere, with someone. Hopefully there is none. But what you may think is good natured banter, is bound to cause someone with very different views, to get the red mist. It's like the Australian cricket team with their sledging saying we never cross the line, but then appointing themselves as sole judges of where that 'line' is. Few things drag up more stronger emotions than politics.
Auckland FC are too busy setting up a new club from scratch, to be waste time on any conflict resolution stuff on match days or whatever. And there are far better places in NZ to engage in political posturing than Mt Smart Stadium. 99% of people will just want to go there to watch good football. Don't piss them off would be my advice, otherwise at some point with someone it will sadly get ugly.
