This is England films...

[Humphrey Ballbag]

I thought these were terrific and really reflected how things were in the best decade ever!.

Especially the first film where Thatcher & the Falklnads was highlighted a fair bit and with the skinheads and attitudes toward ' Pakis' etc..

Films like Greenstreet were good to as their was heaps of footy hooligans in those days.. maybe more so than now?

Their called football ' casuals ' up here

[timey]

Aye the Aberdeen casuals were quite formidable in their day.

[Humphrey Ballbag]

Oh aye.. Hi-bees too!

Near every United/Aberdeen or Dundee/ Aberdeen Match there is still skirmishes at the train station or doon Provie road!

[timey]

I haven't been for ages. The football is so expensive these days. Went to see Aberdeen v United at the start of the season and it cost us the best part of £60. And we got gubbed 3-0 as well.

Same here Timey, we went to the SCP final and lost to St. Johnstone ffs!. price was around £83 for me and my two oldest lads inc bus, so that wasn't too bad.. but the fcuker bus driver left without us!. which made the defeat worse!

Yeah, we got lost! And luckily one of the last buses to leave had spare seats back to Dundee!. pheew!

[timey]

That was good luck.

[Humphrey Ballbag]

No half Timey!. the driver said at first no room for us, but then he must have thought about it as I had my two wee lads with me..,
I was really greatful!...

And if he didn't have room I would have been so greetful!
