  • Not a patch on the original.

    Fashion is way out too, adidas obviously but I never remember lads in full tracksuits. If thats mid eighties it was the french stuff - kickers, nafnaf,and Lois cords,suede jackets. For the select few that could afford it that is.

    ID caught the terrace vibe alot better.

    If Love was 'at it' back then he got a good pair of rose tinted glasses.

  • uk best country in the world.....

  • @MrLeebo123 Ball Rimini carpenters were the babies, think I paid £70 in '87 for them. More expensive than AJ, Valentino and Ciao etc.

  • @ullscarf the clothes are wrong for 88 this fashion was 81 to 84 85

  • @spicygirl789 your right apart from the jeans lois was the early 80s mid eighties was hardcore fiarucci or if you had money ball

  • i'm from the states can't find this movie...pls someone upload

  • @ullscarf Hi Nick

  • If you want the closest experience to what it was like at footy in the 80's WATCH THIS FILM! OK the clothes are a bit wrong some of the acting's a bit wooden and the dialogue isn't the quote a minute style of the original - but - this is the first film to capture the really important part of football violence - the violence.

    It is cinematic genius that will probably never get the recognition it deserves and I can't believe anybody saying otherwise was ever there.

  • What a load of shit. The original was superb, why Love felt the need to wank all over it is beyond me. Surely he could have done something original. I was 16 in 1984 and grew up in South East London. No one wore tracksuits like that, its ridiculous. All the comments made by others below sums that up perfectly- if you were there you remember the fashion. I get the feeling that Love was nowhere near it.

    Likewise i never heard anyone use words like "Don't get Lemon" or "Garms" in the 80s. Pony

  • @sorted65 yeah word up!
