    Football violence in the 80s became more sinister, you literally put your own life in your hands going to the match, every young lad wanted to be a football hooligan it was that cool, and the adrenaline was awesome

    The 1st recorded instances of football hooliganism in the modern game occurred in the 1880s in England, In 1885, after Preston North End beat Aston Villa 5-0 in a friendly match, both teams were pelted with stones, attacked with sticks, punched, kicked and spat at. One Preston player was beaten so severely that he lost consciousness and press reports at the time described the fans as "howling roughs"

    My first game was in 1976 when I was 11. I'm ashamed to say I was swept along with it all until I realised just how foolish it was at the age of 21, haven't been to a football match since. Being young and impressionable I looked up to these people. Must say that the police didn't help, they inflamed it. I, myself, was beaten up by police at the age of 13. Saw them hitting people indiscriminately with their truncheons. One of my mates was held down on the floor whilst a policeman on horseback got the horse to back over his legs. I still have so many images in my head of the violence on all sides. The people that like to glorify those dark days are so sad. What team I supported is not important. Everyone was as bad as everyone else. Still have so much guilt for the things I did.

    Considering the amount of print and video on the subject, that's the first time I heard the theory this presenter espouses. Before you laugh, it's fairly valid when you think about it. I completely forgot, despite the terracing that made grounds have larger capacities than they do today, that attendance had fallen. That vacuum of less dads and granddads is at least a unique take on it all.

    07:50, Interesting observation. I can recall in 1975 being in the 'Scratching Sheds' at Bloomfield Rd (Blackpool). We were in our mid teens and were being slowly and casually surrounded by a bunch of very aggressive Sunderland 'supposed' supporters. Then these men in their mid 30's to mid 40's all dressed in workman's clothes (in those days I guess they were builders straight from work via the chip shop) kind of started to group around us, telling us just to not react and be sensible. Seeing these men in their donkey jackets etc the Sunderland 'yobs' sidled away looking very shifty. I have never forgotten this.

    The 1970s were very violent in general, TV news was Vietnam, Ireland, Baader-Meinhof Gang, none stop industrial action, mass picketing, cops totally out of control and no CCTV anywhere, if you ran away you got away with it, and football was part of the violence, back then you could get caught fighting in a ground and get thrown out then pay at another turnstile to get back in, I once argued with a gate Stewart that I got thrown out for no reason and he let me back in free. shoppers would clear the streets ready for when the game was about to end at 4-45, football grounds become a stage for young men to prove their self's, are grounds better now, I hope so, it was dark, damp, smelly, cold, brutal, and being treated like cattle is not fun, I blame the owners and cops, Hillsborough proved that, Hillsborough happened every weekend but no one usually died,

And they had the body language of MEN, restrained, controlled....they clapped and cheered, waved flags, that's all...and the younger men copied them. Compare to the 80s. It's all young brickies, plasterers, estate agents..but the older men are gone. And the young men are acting like boys....little boys, I mean, jumping, shouting, fighting, making childish two~finger gestures, singing silly songs...not clever chants , just silly....little boys but unfortunately with height and muscle. The old men arent in garden centres. They are ON THE DOLE. It's the men over 45 who cant find other jobs when ther factories closed. They can't afford to go to the football any more. Not even a terrace ticket.

    I assume you were NOT around. Football violence occured at my Club: Milwall from The Mid 1960's though the ground had been closed a few times b4 which was unheard of then.Other Clubs then followed suit. Thatcher came to power in 1979. Stop being brainwashed .Thatcher believed in BRITAIN and gave the working class the chance to buy their own home while Labour wanted to control the people by keeping them indebted to them by giving them social housing...@ @@carbobritton

    @@Isleofskye The right to buy is why we are in such a bad housing situation now. Councils are still forced to sell off your property at very low rates. Not only that, they only get a small fraction of that money to reinvest into social housing. Property prices have gone through the roof and so have rents. Homelessness is at an all time high. In Bristol, where I live now, normal working people are resorting to buying camper vans. That's people with jobs. Or moving to Newport, where the rents are still just about manageable. Thatchers Britain was built on greed and unsustainable.

    I would suggest it was built on self-determination and aspiration. To try, as a working class Boy from ther rough and tough Old Kent Road near Millwall Football Club to study hard and achieve and , thus, be free and independent to buy your own property and NOT be reliant on The Nanny State but yourselves. So that I would be responsible for my actions and not blame anyone else and reap any rewards that accompany that lifestyle. So I DID study and attended an excellent working class Inner London Grammar School which "Good Old Labour-"Friends" of The Working Class" abolished so Working Class kids thereafter ,went to standard,very average secondary schools and stayed in Social housing (where still available ) and like sheep continued to be "controlled" either by working in Nationalised Industries or the local Council , with no competition or reduced to rely on Society or the local council for their housing needs . Some of us broke free and escaped their evil clutches.@@papatruss
