Tony O'Neill -- A Nutter 8Bte8xxcZ Second to None! Glory, Glory Man United!By A Time TravelerThis is Tony's eKf3LrLzg retelling of what was a today-incomprehensible odyssey resulting in a swath of GZwyvWlb2 destruction wrought by football fans on a weekly basis. United's most hardcore lR46SgSzK fans came to be known as the "Men In Black," Europe's largest, most organized US45GEsyn hooligan firm and Tony led them for the better part of 3 decades. Whether you 03kGC55XM like or dislike reading the stories O'Neill recounts, it is a fascinating uprising of ThuEowYIy the working poor of England and is impossible to sum-up in a short time. What Lgz5yG2r3 were the motivations of these young men to unleash unbridled destruction on C4Hob0X2s cities hosting English football league matches? It's a far more complex answer j2TkZuDXV than you may think. Being a United fan, I loved the stories. Being an American I lQjrNcOhE can personally attest that the US has never seen anything even resembling the 1eX6u1bEj assemblage of tens of thousands of organized sports fans who coordinate NbklfbIlK meeting, drinking, destruction and dissolving in one afternoon. A fascinating nle8fcfRt book and I also recommend "Men In Black" by O'Neill as well.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. not impressedBy 809 EastI kept waiting for a redeeming quality about this guy, but there wasn't any. Sadly, he is nothing but an idiotic hooligan, - but my guess he will take that as compliment! This book reads like a monotone recollection of football fights, and not much more.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good hooligan bookBy BlancaBought this for my husband who likes book about the culture of this time and the hooligan lifestyle. This book did not fail, he likes it as much as the Cass Pennant books he has read. Manchester United's Red Army was the most notorious hooligan mob British football has ever seen. Thousands strong, this huge tribe of disaffected youths laid siege to town centrees and soccer grounds across the country and became a byword for violent disorder. Tony O'Neill was there from the beginning and became its most prominent face.Barely in his teens when he set out from the largest council estate in Europe to follow the Red Devils, his ferocity in street combat and his force of personalit ....

Sensationalists United? Football Hooliganism and the English Press
Sensationalists United? Football hooliganism and the English press Conservative politics, with its emphasis on possession – car, house, wife etc – is directly linked to male violence. To be a ‘real’ man, the male must have affluence and therefore power. Witness the rise of the Yuppie or the self-made millionaire held aloft as an ideal image: well-dressed, married, refined accent. If a man does not have these qualities, he must turn to that ‘essential’ characteristic: strength. Strength combined with deprivation means violence. This becomes the poor man’s only viable means of protecting his maleness. It is at football grounds that this problem may be seen, bound up in clannishness, uniforms, notions of territories, class and racial divides. Is it any coincidence that the profile of racist groups reaches a high at periods of economic depression and makes itself visible particularly at soccer games… The football then becomes a breeding ground for frustrated maleness (Michallat 1989). It is greatly to Wendy Michallat’s credit that she should have expressed those compassionate views when she did (at the age of 18) rather than where (the Bradford City FC fanzine), or even that she expressed them as a woman. Laying the blame entirely at the door of Conservative politics might not be wholly just: most of the worst of English hooliganism was on parade from 1965 to 1979, a period when Labour were in power for all but four years. To depict what happened at the Heysel Stadium in Brussels on 29 May 1985 as an extreme consequence of ‘frustrated maleness’ might nevertheless be the nearest we ever get to a definitive explanation for that dreadful evening.

NEWSLETTER a 2019 Round-Up
The Manchester United Supporters’ Trust NEWSLETTER A 2019 Round-Up A word from our CEO Duncan Drasdo Well, it has been an interesting few months on and off the field. When the team under- performs it doesn’t take long for social media to spawn demands to ditch the players and the manager. More recently those demands have extended to calls to change the ownership as well – with which we naturally have sympathy, of course. The Club’s current plight has given rise to a new wave of ‘Glazers Out’ campaigners. While we welcome their conversion it seems some of the more vocal members perceive they have identified a new problem rather than the very issues we have highlighted since before the takeover in 2004 and continue to fight for. Occasionally their frustration has translated to hostility towards MUST for not sharing their particular prescribed solution, which is more often than not something we’ve already tried. We know all too well what the problem is – it is the solution which is the difficult part! Even if it was within our power to achieve – “simply getting the Glazers out” – does not resolve the ownership issue. Many have warned of the risk of jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire if we don’t have a prudent alternative. Moreover, the abiding lesson of the Green and Gold movement in 2010 is that what motivates people is not the depth of the problem, but the credibility of the solution. We may wish it to be otherwise, but history informs us differently.

Steve Redhead. “Hooligan Writing and the Study of Football Fan
Nebula 6.3 , September 2009 Hooligan Writing and the Study of Football Fan Culture: Problems and Possibilities. By Steve Redhead ABSTRACT This essay looks at problems and possibilities associated with research into football hooligan memoirs, or what has been called hit and tell literature. It captures material from a continuing research project on the link between football hooligans writing their own (his)tories and the history of British football hooligan subcultures, especially with regard to ‘casual’ youth culture. Interviews with the writers of these football hooligan memoirs illuminate a number of complex issues around oral history and working class writing. The research is situated at the intersection between oral history, leisure studies, cultural criminology, and post-subcultural studies. The essay considers some implications for the study of male dominated youth subcultures and the methodologies to be employed. The essay claims that the study of hooligan literature might lead, ultimately, to better informed ethnographies of subcultures. KEYWORDS Casuals, Youth Culture, Deviance, Skinheads, Football Hooliganism, Subculture, Masculinity, Post- Subculture, Hit and Tell Lit, Low Sport Journalism. The best cinematic account of football hooliganism and its connection to British youth culture and popular music is in a film version of Kevin Sampson’s debut novel Awaydays (Sampson, 1998), based around the Pack, a group of Tranmere Rovers football casuals who strutted their stuff in the late 1970s. The film was released for the cinema in 2009 with an evocative post-punk soundtrack. But, rather than cult fiction, it is football hooligan memoirs, or hit and tell (Redhead, 2004c) stories, which have to some extent displaced, for mass media moral panics, the incidents of football hooligan violence that seemed to punctuate the football match reports of the late 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.

It considers some of the approaches to thinking about ‘communities’ in relation to football supporters. It considers the disruption to football supporter communities in light of that take over; different community formations amongst the club’s fans; and the political purpose and ‘politicised’ expressions of community within the club’s fan culture. Introduction This essay considers some of the approaches to thinking about ‘communities’ in football discussed elsewhere in this volume in relation to FC United of Manchester (FCUM). In this essay we will first look at the formation of the club in the changing context of English football and its threat to established communities of Manchester United fans; we will then consider the different community formations amongst the club’s fans; and thirdly the political purpose and ‘politicized’ expressions of community within the club’s fan culture. FC United were formed as part of the rejection by some fans of the take-over of Manchester United by the Glazer family in 2005. Since then the club has been successful in gaining two successive promotions that has lifted them from the North West Counties Division Two to the Unibond Northern Premier League Division One, four promotions from the Football League.
