About this listen

In the penultimate episode of the series, Enda Coll explores the world of English football fandom. With researcher and professor Jon Garland, he explores the role football hooligans played in the establishment and growth of a modern far-right organisation, the EDL. He also looks at football culture as a whole in the country with Matt Slater as they look at how it changed from hooligans in the 1980's, the peacetime of Premier League and the post-COVID panic when anti-social behaviour spiked.
