Synopsis:

The controversial Thames TV documentary 'Hooligan', brought the problem of football hooliganism to the forefront of the nation's conscience, follows the notorious Inter City Firm, "supporters" of West Ham United. Battling rival soccer fans up and down the country, they often reduced city centres to little more than looted shops and burnt out cars, and have left victims scarred from the effects of their weapon of choice - the Stanley knife. The perpetrators then melt away, back on the next Inter City train that takes them back to the east end of London.

Documentary which examines the motivation behind the organisation of football violence by groups such as West Ham's "Inter-City Firm", who often travel by first class ticket. It questions the members of the ICF about their motives and attitudes. It gives the views of Leicester University sociologists who have for five years studied the social roots of football spectator violence. It offers evidence to judge the degree to which the politicians, the sociologists, the Popplewell report and public opinion have got it right.
