Description
The Young Guvnors: A Vicious Account of Football Hooliganism in 1980s Manchester In the midst of the 1980s, Manchester was gripped by a wave of violence and intimidation, as rival football firms clashed on the streets. At the heart of this chaos was the Young Guvnors, a notorious group of supporters who fought not only against their fellow hooligans but also against rival fans from across the country. This is the story of their rise and fall, as recalled by one of the group's youngest members. Organized football hooliganism was at an all-time high when the Young Guvnors formed in the mid-1980s. Their bloody battles with opposing mobs were a defining feature of this period, and their eventual demise was a direct result of the tactics employed by the authorities. Rodney Rhoden's account is a harrowing and unflinching look at a dark chapter in British football history.
