Description
Come on Then is a candid and humorous account of three decades in the life of Terence Ohagan, centered around his involvement with Huddersfield Town football team. The author recounts his experiences meeting and becoming part of the local hooligan fraternity in the late 1970s, and how he remained an integral member until the mid-1990s. The book delves into the camaraderie and humour that defined this subculture, as well as its more violent aspects. Ohagan reflects on his time away from the scene and his subsequent return to it in the later years, noting the changes that had taken place within the group. The author also explores how younger generations have continued to carry on the traditions of the hooligan set up. Through this narrative, Ohagan shares his pride and affection for the community he was a part of, and raises questions about its future in an era marked by increased surveillance and regulation.
