Product Description
In this enthralling investigation, Micky Smith, a die-hard Hammers fan, teams with bestselling author and former member of the InterCity Firm (ICF), Cass Pennant to recall the turbulent 1970s—a time of skinheads, Doc Martens, and mobs of soccer hooligans. Thrilling, dramatic, and brutally honest, this work will fascinate any soccer fan or social historian.

As if we need another book about violence?
Get a life and go out one night in your town centre - kids are killing kids!
This book is all Watch With Mother meets Jackanory.
If you've read one Cass Pennant book, you've no need to read anymore - not that you'd want to ... Charles Dickens he ain't.
What with Charles Haughtry on the front cover. A right couple o' Charlies, they make.
Same ol' same ol'.
Millwall, West Ham, then maybe Portsmouth (in that order); we all know where the so called hard men of football violence come from.
Not for real football fans - and quite frankly Bermondsey ruled the roost, not Bethnal Green.
A lot of poetic license has been used to pep up most of Smiffy's stories - and a fair share of Tom Peppering too.
What is it about East Londoners and their obsession with telling all - no wonder `Bertie' Smalls and most other London supergrasses come from that manor.
Mile Eng Mob? Bunch o' crowd punchers more like.
