In 2010, something happened on the streets of Huddersfield that wasn’t supposed to happen anymore.Big thank you to our Sponsors, Bradburys Group | SMARTeye – Rapid Deployment Crime - https://bradburysgroup.com/smarteye-rapid-deployment-detection/Captured on CCTV, supporters linked to Millwall became involved in a running battle that looked like it had been pulled straight from the darkest days of English football hooliganism.For decades, the authorities had fought to stamp this culture out. New laws were introduced, stadiums were rebuilt, banning orders were imposed and many of the country’s most notorious firms were dismantled. But had football hooliganism really disappeared—or had it simply moved away from the terraces?In this video, I examine what happened in Huddersfield that day, the rise of Millwall’s infamous Bushwackers, the nationwide crackdown of the 1990s and why the culture surrounding football violence never completely went away.Was this Britain’s last great hooligan battle?This video does not glorify or encourage football violence. It documents a significant incident in the history of British football culture.Let me know your thoughts in the comments, and subscribe to The Terry Stone Connection for more reactions, documentaries and stories from modern British history.
