    Bollox from beginning to end. If it was the FA Cup tie at Highbury, I was at that match on the North Bank with my old man. Millwall was there for about 20 seconds before the old bill took them out down the front. I can’t remember any punches, and as a kid I used to like seeing a row. This geezer should try getting a job on Jackonory .

      @@johnhoward6509 I guess it depends on whether the stewards/cops got involved or not. A few seasons ago a small group of Liverpool fans got into the Stretford End. As the ends are now all seated and the Liverpool lads were in the front row only a small number of home fans could get at them. Very luckily for them the stewards came along and escorted them outside before they got to badly beaten. Without stewards, there would have been deaths!

    Andy Nicholls in his book ‘Scally’ recalls when elements of the Millwall F’ troop made their presence known in the Gwlady’s street end of Goodison Park, the home of the supporters of Everton FC. The shout of ‘We are Millwall’ went up and the fists flew, they where game but had bitten off more than they could chew, soon they found themselves on a hiding to nothing and with their backs towards the wall and the pitch they turned, the wise ones hauled themselves up and over onto the pitch and made their escape others kept on fighting a losing battle. He recalled one Millwall supporter turn to climb the wall and that’s when the meat hook went into his back, drawing him back in…football hooliganism and pride where a part of the times, as graphic as it may seem.

    WE fight no killing (on purpose) rules that 90% of the time were followed I.e no weapons no taking liberties when someone is down no attacking anyone with a lady and no attacking shirters (normal fans)
    yes these rules were broke from time to time especially when hate was involved like us playing West Ham, but otherwise it was fun.
    I did it for 10 yrs following millwall everywhere, the mates who you mostly only met on match day were as loyal as you could ever find,
    we at millwall only got on average crowds of between 3 to 5k at home during the 80s yet had a good 250 lads which if you compared to a Chelsea or Man Utd would be if they had 40k home crowds an average of at least 2k lads so we are a tiny club yet were one of Britain’s top hooligan firms,
    We were rated by others as such because we stood together always you would never run and leave your mates as many people will say from other firms,
    we lost some but won most everyone loses some times, I don’t care what you or any other soft spoilt kids or men say because this was 35 to 40 yrs ago they days are gone we grew up stopped the fighting and matured had families but never will I regret it they were the best days of my youth, and if you had the guts to do it you would 100% agree, now the middle class and upper middle are taking over our game pricing normal fans out.

    I just don't get the mentality of football hooligans, I don't actually think there is a mentality, or a thought or an idea. It is literally the bottom end of the gene pool. A backward primal thing. It's never about the football. I witnessed it at a game back in the early 90s between Middlesborough and Sunderland. My mates are big Sunderland fans, I went for the experience, the minute we got off our minibus and walked towards the away end we were attacked by a couple of hundred Middlesborough fans. We ran for our lives, my mate tripped over and lost his glasses, I ran back for him and just grabbed his arm and legged it with the others. The worst thing I saw was a dad running with his young son on his shoulders, he got jumped by three guys and they battered him even with the kid there. I haven't felt fear like that before or since. It was just mindless violence for no other reason than these guys getting an adrenaline high.

      I was actually at that game as a 12 year old in 1988 I think,yes in the bottom right corner of the north bank the home end, there were Millwall I remember a huge explosion then it kicked off,don't forget it was a different era and people,it was a dark cloudy 3pm and an evil atmosphere waking to the ground,Millwall jumping over the home end turnstiles,arsenal evened things up with them on Highbury fields after the game as they were at their peak around that time,different era
