Escobar PHM Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Newhaven had a gang called Toley Beach Mafia. I think there were 4 guys and a dug in it. The scariest gang I ever encountered was in the early 80's when I made the mistake of going to a Millwall vs Cardiff game. Millwall had a gang called 'The Doctors' in those days. They wore white coats and stethoscopes and those reflective light things on their heads. Their weapon of choice was the surgical scalpel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
