5.0 out of 5 stars THE leader of it's genre, 2 Jan 2001
By A Customer
As someone who knows the man, this took me to the good old days - well written - well remembered - well done! This really goes to show how wrong people were to say 'hooligans' were racist thugs and that 'nothing would come of 'scum' 'Cass' is living proof that if you want to 'grow up' and progress then you can - only those people who live in a time-warp are the ones who never 'move on'

4.0 out of 5 stars the life and crimes of a gentleman hooligan, 12 Oct 2000
By A Customer
big cass is a living legend, from brighton to carlisle, he is regarded as one of the toughest hardmen in the country. Along with andy swallow and bill gardner, he was one of the main driving forces behind west ham's infamous ICF and this is his long overdue story. Well written and highly enjoyable, this book is a must for anyone who wants a rollercoaster read that offers action, humour and touching pathos as well as any old top boys out there who can remember what it was like to face the icf. 'Cass' is one of those books that stand head and shoulders above the competition. devoid of the usual cliches that most books penned by so called hooligan generals are crammed with, this book manages to capture the feel of the time and paints a gritty picture of growing up as a black barnados boy in inner city britain. It also dispels once and for all the myth that all football hooligans are white, racist neo nazis, check out how the ICF backed up the SWP and turned over the N F at lewisham. having read the book, its easy to see how the anger, frustration and resentment of his experiences turned cass into the awesome fighting machine that he undoubtedly is and more positively how this very dangerous individual has turned his life around. buy this book and pay the big guy his dues

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read, 9 April 2001
By A Customer
When i started to read this book i thought Cass was going to be another thug who was just full of himself.But after reading it i had a slight admiration for him.I was one of the millions who thought football violence was a few yobs with to much drink.But this book opened my eyes to what really goes on.Every match was treat like a military operation right down to the last detail.Cass Pennant pulls no punches in this well written book which leaves nothing to the imagination.I was engrossed from start to finish.Having read several books on football violence i believe this is the only one you need to read.
