BACK in the 1970s, Panorama made a documentar­y on Millwall’s notorious football ‘firms’ — called ‘F Troop, Treatment and the Half-Way Line’.

South London’s hooligans had a fearsome reputation which transcende­d their club’s modest status.

Their local hero was a tough fullback called Harry Cripps, who played for Millwall most of his career. It wasn’t just teenage skinheads, either. The dads were the nastiest — meat cleavers, dockers’ hooks, the full monty. Long since retired, or brown bread, I’d imagine.

So I wonder what they’d have made of the story in yesterday’s Daily Mail about Millwall planning to host a rally called ‘Transgende­rism and the War on Women’.
