This show also caught my eye, I thought it might provide an interesting insight into the ugly and inexplicable world of football hooliganism. I watched the first couple of minutes of the first episode, and its tone and the host (forget his name) with his 'orright bruvva, well 'ard, innit, na'what'a'mean' Sarf Lahndon cockney lad attitude turned me off. It seemed to be more of a celebration/glorification of 'tough guy' hooligans rather than recognising, explaining, and understanding why such a ****** up thing exists in civilised societies.
So, am I right, or should I give it a proper go (orright then bruvva)?
Danny Dyer likes to portray himself as a bit of a toughnut but you could tell he was shitting himself a few times in this series. Well worth a look, you can tell a few times Dyer can't fathom the reasoning behind why they do it and that they are proud of it.
