    Jasper wouldnthave been watching in the 70's.when Town were in the old Division 1,that's the best crew theyve had with people like John Bamforth(sadly passed away),Jimmy Johnson and a lad called Moseswho led the skinhead crew,many others too,we held our own against Leeds and the Mancs,there were big battles with arrests in the hundreds,we beat all the others,those were the days,no bottles,knives,just fist fights,memorable times.

    Another point comes to mind -
    He mentions Bury having a large firm on one occasion, which surprised him I believe.
    I used to live along the M4 corridor and teams like Oxford, Swindon, Reading etc all had some lads, but many who lived there supported London clubs.
    If their first love had a poor game for action, they might go and support their local team, having gone to school with many of the hard core fans.
    That can help explain why visiting fans often get a surprise at smaller places.
    Nobody argues amongst themselves as they went to the same schools, use the same pubs week in and week out, so their Premier League ( nowadays) rivalries are set aside to have a good battle against a decent visiting firm
    Just thought that's what might have happened in the case of Bury

      @@rogervink9160 I remember how many got on at Reading for the various London teams, and yes indeed they would have easily doubled Reading's firm.
      Oxford were always an enigma, showing up for Reading, Swindon etc, but often failing against others.
      I saw Bristol Rovers take their end easily, with Bristol lads all over Oxford centre, but that was way back in the mid 1970's

    Going on about the clothing, I remember in the 70's when donkey jackets and working boots were popular at Chelsea, Spurs and others
    Stood out like a sore thumb at places up north, where some 'firms' still wore those Birmingham bags, with the high waists - laughed our heads off as it was like a time warp.
    All changed as documented elsewhere, when European games and cheap rail travel meant northerners caught up very quickly

    • @samolevski1119

      I think the main reason was because they were about the only firms which frequently travelled all over the country season after season.
      I lived down South but the police were able to keep a lid on the local lads where I lived, so it was only now and then that smaller towns were able to get a decent firm together, but all it needed was a few arrests and prison, for the rest of them to be more careful.
      That didn't happen with bigger firms, who often had widespread support from many other cities across the country and could turn up everywhere in big enough numbers to pose a threat

    OUT of anything connected to football..pundits..commentators..interviewers etc. It's not sexist and I am female its just they have no experience in Men's Football..haven't played it and very little knowledge of the history of football..All the pathetic girls with their Stone Island on Burberry Scarf Aquascutum Cap..yes together and Kappa trainers.
    Suddenly they spring up as casual..?? On Instagram and think they are in the ranks..it doesn't work like that..Most not been to a game & Never been to an Away game.

    Jasper, was never a senior member of Huddersfield Young Casusals. I joined when I was 15 years old. 1985 and I don't recall seeing Jasper anywhere. I guess he had his own 10 man crew, who tagged along with Huddersfield Young Casusals.
