"I'm a hooligan ... there I've said it ... I'm a hooligan. And, do you know why? Because that's my job." In 1995, a film about an undercover cop tracking down football hooligans gained cult status for its brutal portrayal of the dark side of the sport. The shocking events depicted seemed almost unbelievable. However, nearly twenty years later, the man behind the film, James Bannon, reveals that the script was largely based on true events. Bannon was the undercover officer infiltrating Millwall F.C.'s notorious gang, The Bushwackers, known for their extreme violence. In his account, he shares his harrowing journey into the world of football hooliganism, where brutality reigns supreme. He introduces readers to some of the toughest thugs from England's most infamous gangs and recounts the often absurd police operations aimed at dismantling them. Bannon also highlights the challenges of escaping the clutches of such a dangerous lifestyle. This disturbing yet captivating narrative illustrates how reality can be more bizarre than fiction, offering an intense look into a hidden world.
