Ex-hooligan says West Ham and Millwall should ban away fans to stop derby chaos


The area of Stamford Hill, which borders the area of Tottenham, is Jewish.  And yes, they are still considered a Jewish club. How the Yid Army came about is an issue. Because Jewish football fans gravitated towards watching Spurs, when fans of other clubs came to what is now called Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, they made hissing sounds in reference to the gas chambers used in the Jewish Holocaust at the end of WW2. They also used the term "yid" as an insult towards Spurs fans; Chelsea and West Ham fans were notorious for doing that. What non Jewish Spurs did was to co-opt the term to mark solidarity with Jewish Spurs fans.


Arsenal used to be based in South London. Historically, they are a South London club, which Spurs fans make jokes about. (Full disclosure, Arsenal moved to North London over 90 years ago).


You're welcome! I've still yet to read or see Fever Pitch though. As much as I watch football, I dont usually watch movies on football. I might give it chance.
