Millwall 99 I was there that day and millwall got seriously battered outside the ground that day
We were 900 strong by 9 am didn’t know what hit um ✊🏻
Took some bottle for millwall to come under the grandstand an boot the doors open,unfortunately for them they couldn’t have bumped into a worse crew that day
@@stephendavid8031 yeah I was in the front when they burst out a load of them got seriously hurt that day they were all sparked out on the floor
Was waiting to go into the grandstand and 2 Wall tried to get in they would have got killed if it wasn’t for steward
Seen the video it would have been an embarrassment if Cardiff hadn't done Millwall under that stand must have been a thousand on to 20/30 wall that got out so wall get my respect here
Could listen to this lad for hours, much respect mate good luck for the future.
Good firm Cardiff always have been they are right up there 👍⚒️
this fella speaks the most sense I've heard by a hoolie in years. I was in Cardiff for the Millwall match when we ( United) won in 04. We had a v good turnout that day. Boro got the better of us in 97 at OT- these things happen. just like swansea never really looked for it in Cardiff, not many came looking for it in Salford back in the day. As JE says though, the odd loss is important, it gets rid of the hangers on which always latch on to big mobs like United & Cardiff, a bit of a kicking gets rid of the deadwood. 40 Wigan caught a few of us out on a non match day once & it served the purpose of removing the deadwood that was attaching itself at the time. PS it's a miracle to hear anyone give United any credit so fair play.
Always rated Cardiff remember going to Ninion Park with us West Ham respect had good times back in the day respect from a Hammer 👍⚒️⚒️
Cardiff has always been a handful. Loved the 80's.
Was there at Cardiff 94 and also first in the doorway at Swansea the Yr after. Happy days
Nailed it it's how game you are you stick together no running one gets done we all get done
Many a great day/night in Cardiff , love the South Africa bar in the centre , seen them a few times in Wigan , peaceful the last time as they brought a firm into the centre , had a good drink with them ...despite a young one trying to pick pocket one of ours ,,,great days
Great podcast lads,,good too see Jonny doing good,,top fella,, great watch,,

Thanks justin
Swans fan here, great listen this and a great podcast too - keep it up Cullan and the team!
Bigbup podcast let 2 out next weekend .. also content with the yank hooligan and evo this weekend unmissable
Went with Leeds for the FAcup match in early 00s and have to say the atmosphere was intimidating, electric proper old school ground Ninian.... didn't see any trouble as we lost and Cardiff were in dreamland but things would have been different no doubt if we'd have won
Best video you have done yet. Get him on again and ask the question about the brawl with the Moroccans, think it was in the late 80's early 90s ?? Also any more stories of Wales Away??? Would love to see this guy back on your podcast. Clearly the real deal.
Big love mate yeh youl defo see more of him! Stay Central

Rawlings one man Army.. Birmingham 95 was started by him.. 🤣
Top class podcast and a good honest account from a genuine top lad .Met Cardiff a few times with bwfc and I have always rated them and probably one of the top firms of all time when hooliganism was at the forefront.
Big shout out Ian! Stay Central
Thxs lad for the coment....proper days..Bolton were no mugs either..respect...
I’ve always said myself, Cardiff in the 90s would’ve done anyone, respect from an Albion fan👊🏻
I miss the 80s mid 90s, llanrumney blues now Malaga living forever keeping the faith CCSC.
Thought Jonathan may have given a mention to a mad day in Bradford in the mid 90s. Good listen with none of the usual bragging or bullshit. Top man Jonathan
Big things coming very soon Gareth ! Hope your weel
@@thecentralclub all good man
Was that the one that was last game of the season

Top boy big respect 👍🏽❤ CF11 9..
There was 30 from Port Talbot and some from Cardiff, who got chased into the sea by 40 jacks.They had been bringing it all day, and copped it against a decent Jack mob
Top bloke,spent a bit of time with Jon,got to know him quite well came across as a genuinely honest guy👊🏼
Legend x
Did ya fuck , he wouldn’t sit with a whopper like you lad
Top podcast mate probably better than the abraham podcast mate..Jonathan is a top fella keep up the good work bro
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Used to go over the Den years back and Cardiff would turn up year after year without fail and year after year, they'd fail to make it past The Railway Tavern. Went there once with Millwall and it was like Zulu - fighting all the way back to the station. There were thousands of them. Cardiff were game and that was all that mattered.
Big up Jimmy respect is mutual
Funny how you day Zulu, shoe in the other foot type of thing for the welsh
Great podcast, genuine man 👍🙏
I was present with some Newport lads( who were Millwall fans) first game of the season 1999..3 pm KO....what were they thinking...some Mayors parade so Old Bill stretched to say the least. Wall had a good turn out, very game but Cardiff were out in full force....so respect both ways....you don’t get many days like theses ever. Full on from start to finish with helicopter landing in the park on the way to the ground lol.....a massive cast iron drain being lobbed over between both sets....could have seriously hurt someone if it had connected.....I remember getting the gates open after the game with and Cardiff literally frothing at the mouth..hahaha...crazy day.
Intresting podcast.
You come across as a good bloke john,how footy has changed these days !!!
Amen Bobby!
It’s good to other clubs commenting how it actually was at cardiff, this club and firm were the real deal with huge numbers who wanted a scrap!!
I remember going away with Walsall to Wrexham 2007ish I think and a Walsall fan decided to burn a Welsh flag in the town centre, absolute carnage man good firm.
I also remember Walsall having a go with Cardiff at the bezla 2004/5ish I think, never forget it I remember this big guy look like a maori with no front teeth came charging out and just jumped into the walsall lot and again carnage that day.
🤣🙏 those were the days x
Wxm Front Line 💯

So what
😎👍
Great interview. Ninian Park will never be matched
Big up jt! Stay Central
More CCFC content! 💪🏴🔥
Took me a while to get there but I finally see what he means.
Meaning? Lol
I was at that Welsh cup final game. I’m sure it was Wrexham against Hereford. I went with my brother and old man. It kicked off on Westgate Street. Loads of Cardiff inside the Arms park.
I was at Hereford wrexham game Hereford bus pulled up at traffic lights we in pub there windows started going in on bus
Cardiff v Boro in the cup in 94 was eventful.
Nice! Stay Central
Theres some old vid on my Channel from Swansea Cardiff 90s I posted a few years ago, I remember that 90s I was outside the Queens never seen a mob like that coming round the corner, also remember a night game against Stoke and Cardiff turned up as one of the PT lads was from there
Big up Chris hope you enjoyed this mate! Stay Central
The fa cup game was when Cardiff ran Swansea to the Queens after coming up the kingsway . Plenty of the jacks main lads were on their toes there , although they still say they were on their way to Mumbles for an hour 😂
@@vlad7667 I Remember being by the Queens I was only 16 OB tried to keep a load of our boys inside I vividly remember a few trying to go out, then pint glasses came over, and you steamed us. I went up from Neath a 125 I aint sure if it was your special as it was rammed with Cardiff, I seen a few PVM lads and kept my head down, they came off the train and steamed straight in the Pullman. I remember it going off in the South Stand too as you lot were in that end, the OB took you on double decker's up the Kingsway after the game and it was rush hour, fucking madness never seen anything like that. Fair play you where good that day, hard to say but I dont think anyone could have lived with you. The Old mans Cardiff and told me they made a flag in the Viv in PT with Viv Lunatics on it and the spray stuck to the floor and the barmaid wanted to have it with them, crazy day.
The year before I was still in School and we had Birmingham home a few lads approached me outside the Jack and puled a blade , I got told you mobbed up with them that day not sure if it true. Kind of in the blood then when you get that Adrenalin. Great days.
Thxs for the feed bk mate...yeah that was a massive mob we had that day...both firms represented that day....
Quality podcast.. spot on about France as well 👌👍🏼 them Russians were different breed
Thanks Shane! I bet, Stay Central
Soul solid crew
These Podcasts are amazing. Such good watches. Haven't watched a shit one yet! Your line of questioning is always spot on. Would have loved you to ask him who in his opinion would he want with him if it kicked off. You asked Annis this and he said Jonathan Evans. Been interesting to know who he said out of them ''dirty 30''. Keep up the good work lad. From a bluebird in Bangkok. Peace!
Big big big love ant! Stay Central
@@thecentralclub you are Cardiff fan then? Where you from? Pentwyn here! And get Nils on!!! lol
I read another book about the soul crew it came out in the mid noughties the lad that wrote was quite open about using tools mainly Stanley knives, can't remember the name of it but it was a good read, he pretty much admitted he wasn't into football at all and was only into the violence and the clothes
Big Part 2 coming out in couple weeks, also interview dropped today with evo replying to some comments
Proper lad
wake up call because you didn't expect BORO to be that good lol fare play to your honesty
Up the n40 had some of the best rows with you boys great 👍
big up Stoke
@N40 top mob stoke had some run ins with your lot,you’ve also come to Cardiff looking for it not many can say that respect ✊
Stoke always game with massive numbers..
2016 Euros n this geezer still riotin' 😂
As a Hull lad I don’t rate swansea, they jump on stragglers & have no bottle. Cardiff are a different story.
Just been last Saturday . Weak 💙💛💚🏴
@@anthonycox3493conclusion on one visit, sure kid.
Totally the opposite lad. This dole crew bunch are shit houses...and what an embarrassing video this is
You’re a fine one to talk. Hull, one of the biggest shithouses ever, thirty of your lads jumped two innocent Swansea lads in April 2023. There’s footage on CZcams. Don’t worry, we don’t rate hull either, Grimsby and Lincoln far more game than you tigers. Mauled by the Tigers. How fuckin embarrassing
@@anthonycox3493different days different stadium
Great listen .
Respect what he had to say about the Boro, they are infamous for having a top hard, top firm, but a good few top members from top firms do tip thier hat to the old Boro firm, but others either play dumb or talk rubbish, credit where credit is due as the late great Chopper Read said after getting surprised stabbed by his best mate
A few of Cardiff’s main lads are still friendly with a fair few boro lads to this day
They spoke highly of boro
I really rate boro I’m arsenal had some good rows with boro was always a tough day out! Some people say we’re shit but even some of the boro lads know if you meet the right arsenal we’ll have it with anyone
@@tonyg7469 fair comment Tony..Boro top firm.I have never underestimated the Gooners despite what some say.Alot of good lads came from our of Darlington and some would yo yo between Darlo and Boro.The north east never an easy day.Have known some Gooners who wouldn't throw themselves about but we're genuine old school hard cases.Respect.
Darlington and Middlesbrough tough places got a lot of respect for northerners always stick together! Good luck wish boro all the best hopefully you get back to the premier league mate
I think Cardiff are undoubtedly right up there, though I think most clubs would say when they have their best mobs together, they rarely get done, and its always when they have reduced numbers or only a few faces.
Yes Nicholas! Stay Central
Soul crew got done in Manchester at England game runners
Of course..if you got the right boys with then no you shouldn't get done...fortunately for us we had 30 lads who could row football or no football
@@soulokeh61 jog on..mug
@@soulokeh61 my friend,there is no point in trying to get through to a Cardiff fan they are all deluded ,everywhere they go they have done everyone! I'm a Swans fan and the times we have done them on their own soil and our own they can never admit to it. Yes they done us on many occasions but only when they had large numbers,but at least we can admit when we were done!
Funny about Forest we are the worst cos of what was said in a book. Bill Gardner said Forest was a very hard away day. Just depends on you’ve experienced I suppose
A lot of their top boy's rated the boro front line one of the best
Yes they do a lot! Big love to the Boro, Stay Central

Wrexham Outnumbered 4 to 1 caged in a builders yard Welsh Cup Final old Arms Par remember? Still had a go. Brussels many hadn't checked into the hotel before getting deported. Bags were still in the coach holds It was more than 30 Cardiff in in Brussels 80 or 90. They weren't double decker busses either. Just standard European coaches. The type no ones used to when they go on holiday

Didn't want to bait you up mate..
Good podcast first time I've heard the Newbury incident explained as a Welshman in Oxfordshire all you get is Cardiff Swansea battle then they move on to the weather so thanks for the update like the Middlesbrough comments they are a great mob and lasted the test of time too agree Cardiff are shit now and after 50 years of going I'm bored with it too. Don't think we'll ever get it back and respect Wrexham too great podcast
I was a young kid in Milan and it was mental out there, in the ground was crazy I’ve been to a lot of games all over the place and that day in Milan was the most intimidating atmosphere, and the police deffo got run out of the stands, was nightmare with the Italians above us throwing all sorts, bottles, squashed and sharpened beer cans and the worst of all bottles of piss, it wasn’t good seeing the welsh fans fight each other tho that baffles me when it’s and international game in a foreign country should stick together at that point
Yes cal glad you liked this! Stay Central
Couldn't agree more mate.
Divided , like the British , strangers in their own lands!
Same happened in Anfield. For the Wales ‘home’ game.
Great watch that Top lad Jonathan get nils on next mate 👍
No need for that we dont need to cheapen the show by having two faced snakes on like that his whole family are muppets
