'who is not adverse to the odd confrontation'

Sexy Pete... :D
never understood the fascination with this. What's the problem with going to watch the football and - shock horror - going just to enjoy the game, as opposed to being a lairy faux geezaaahh

Casuals? A load of men all wearing the same cloths reminding each other they were hard.
An era to be forgotten.

You've never understood the fascination with fashion cults? It's no different from goths, mods, punks, teddies, trustafarians and a million and one others. Each have their own slang, style of dress, rituals. Just so happens this fashion cult is more attached to football than music or politics.
And no doubt some wag will post "pwoppa nawty" within the next 10 posts. Green Street is NOT an accurate portrayal of how casuals behave, talk or even look like - it's a caricature that's been grossly distorted for entertainment, it's how the film industry works. It's the equivalent of saying that all motorbikers are like their film portrayal in Easy Rider.

Surely it's far better to wear a 70's replica shirt, Tesco jeans and Hush puppies?
I would consider myself a sort of early Casual come sad old man personally...

Started by the Aberdeen football firm wasnt it? Think Liverpool took it to a more mass level.
Nowadays, there is a rightwing group that call themselves Casuals United...although, they appear to be more 'Matalan' Casuals.

The Casuals were a load of Pansies who found acceptance within a group of highly vain young men.
These days, if you cared that much about your image like the casuals did, No one would think you're tough.

Casuals UTD, what the hell are they?
Never heard of them, sounds cringey
I have known casuals who have serious jobs, left wing, right wing, black, white, dig holes for a living, solicitors, it takes allsorts
The media love a stereo type, which tints what its about
