Worst. Sequel. Ever.

Green Street Hooligans (2005) — aka Green Street aka Hooligans — was one of a rash of films — The Firm (1988), I.D. (1995), The Football Factory (2004) — exploiting the US fascination with football hooliganism. Based on the story of a fictional West Ham firm — drawn in turn upon the real life ‘Inter City Firm’ — the consensus among real life West Ham fans seems to have been that the film was poor, at least in terms of accuracy, if not drama. Green Street Hooligans 2 — aka Green Street 2 aka Green Street Hooligans 2: Stand Your Ground — is regarded as being worse than shit: a straight-to-DVD release. It also came with a soundtrack, featuring a local Melbourne band (Marching Orders) and — ironically — the song ‘Sometimes Anti Social But Always Anti Fascist’ by stupid fucking anarchist commie piece of shit German band Stage Bottles.

Bonus Violence!

About @ndy

I live in Melbourne, Australia. I like anarchy. I don't like nazis. I enjoy eating pizza and drinking beer. I barrack for the greatest football team on Earth: Collingwood Magpies. The 2024 premiership's a cakewalk for the good old Collingwood.
