Waiting on a wish
I wasn't sure whether to put this in the Spurs forum but plumped for here.

With this Millwall game coming up, and all the talk of their "firm", I keep hearing that we apparently still have a large and active firm? Is that true? Never seem to hear much about it?

Does anyone know if other clubs still have active mobs, such as the head hunters etc?

Genuinely I find the whole subject matter of football hooliganism/tribalism rather interesting. Any decent links/pages where I can read more? Anyone have any experiences or knowledge of what these buggers get up to these days, or ever been caught up in it?

*asks genuine question...gets roasted to fuck* :dembelelol:
 
Any violence at / near grounds are really isolated incidents now and not much more than 'playgound' scraps - I've never seen firms fighting, but I've never gone looking to find them.
 
Firm violence I don't think so. Violence yes, but nothing much has interfered with me, except one time that some cunt thought it'd be hilarious to set of fireworks into the crowd leaving the Park Lane exits.
 
Firm violence around grounds seldom happens nowadays. It tends to be well away from grounds so the police aren't able to get near it easily.

You are more likely to see groups of this kind nowadays. 18 year olds that come unstuck when an older head who has seen it all before lamps em one. :dembelelol:

 
In the 70s groups of mainly young men would take the home end . It usually was a mob of up to 1000 , a lot of pushing, a bit of fighting and then the police would surround them.
I remember every year Spurs taking the
North Bank .

HOOOOOOOOOFFF!

I've experienced it in a few places, it's pretty pathetic really but it's funny how you can get caught up in group mentality regardless of intelligence. Keeps us divided by sport , religion, colour , race or whatever , Makes it easier to control us .

How can you really hate someone because they cheers on different millionaire to what you do? It's quite sad that we're so dumb .


Sorry

:memeokay:

Yes, but the Hooligan Factory lampoons it very well.

Chelsea getting lamped in their own backyard LOL

Worst I saw was in the 90's v Boro....was pretty much little groups all the way from the ground up to Seven Sisters. Horrible atmosphere.

Most old bill Ive seen a WHL was v Birmingham about ten years ago. I swear there must have been 100 meat wagons lined up with dogs and everything. Never saw any fighting tho
