Football Hooligans!!!

Go on, bruv. Go on, bruv.

Fuck me. If I knew we was going to a bar
mitzvah, I'd have brought me fucking skullcap.

Mate, Tottenham's due north.
Are you lost or just fucking stupid?

Still a stand-up comedian, eh, Dunham?
All right, mate.

When the Major was doing your job,
he wasn't nearly so chatty.

Probably 'cause
he wasn't quite so nervous either.

The Major always preferred a scrap
to your yammer.

- What's all that? What is that?
- Yammer?

You reckon? Mate, I think you should get
on the next train and fuck off out of here.

- Before something bad happens.
- [Jeering]

We'd be interested to see exactly what that is.

You're not exactly top-flight mob
these days, are you?

- More like a two-bob mob.
- [Laughter]

See, now, that's just plain rude.

But if you fancy it, who are we to let you down?

- Come on, then!
- Come on, then, you fucking poncey cunt!

- You fucking cunt! You!
- [Chanting]

Fucking have it! Come on.

Let's go.



We have all seen Green Street Hooligans, and most of us loved it! Most of us thought, 'WOW',how awesome will it be to have a group of friends, that are always there to back you up in a fight, and even if you lose the fight to other teams supporters, you are always amped to get them back at the next game!

In recent years, football violence has been responsible for many deaths and serious injuries around the world, with some fans using all sorts of weaspons like knives, bats, chains ect. to defend themselves. I delved into the files of history, to find out where and when this voilent and often deadly passtime started.



The first instance of football violence is unknown, as many football games have been played around the world for thousands of years, but football and violence can be arbitrarily traced back to at least the Middle Ages in England. In 1314, Edward II banned football (which then was a violent free-for-all involving rival villages fly-hacking a pig's bladder across the local heath) because he believed the disorder surrounding matches might lead to social unrest or even treason.[5] The first recorded instances of football hooliganism in the modern game took place in the 1880s in England, a period when gangs of supporters would intimidate neighbourhoods, as well as attack referees and opposing supporters and players. In 1885, after Preston North End beat Aston Villa 5-0 in a friendly match, the two teams were pelted with stones; attacked with sticks, punched, kicked and spat at. One Preston player was beaten so severely that he lost consciousness. Press reports of the time described the fans as "howling roughs".[5] The following year, Preston fans fought Queen's Park fans in a railway station; the first recorded instance of football hooliganism away from a match. In 1905, several Preston fans were tried for hooliganism, including a "drunk and disorderly" 70 year old woman, following their match against Blackburn Rovers.[5]

Between the two world wars, there were no recorded instance of football hooliganism, (though for example Millwall's ground was reportedly closed in 1920, 1934 and 1950 after crowd disturbances) but it started attracting widespread media attention in the late 1950s due to its re-emergence in Latin America. In the 1955-56 English football season, Liverpool and Everton fans were involved in a number of incidents. By the 1960s, an average of 25 hooligan incidents were being reported each year in England.

So, with the world cup aproaching, I suggest you have your vuvuzela ready at all times, to defend yourself against any foreign fan that might want to intrude in your teritory!!!
