davemclaren Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I hadn't. I didn't "run" in those circles, but when I were a lad, at an east Edinburgh school, the names that were always "known" were Bradley Welsh, Ivor Levein and Terry Reilly. All approximate spellings obviously. As said before though, it is just as uncool when it is Hearts fans writing about it IMO. They would all turn to jelly at the sight of a real man's moustache!

jambojackbilly Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 They ( hobo's ) go on add nausea about the Molotov cocktail incident at the Waverly Station as if it was yesterday They ( hobo's ) are still dining out on an incident that happened 25yrs ago or so it's desperate I've met and know a few Casuals, decent hard working lads that i genuinely like.Just canny understand why they are still drawn towards this mug of p1s h. The hobo dwarf must be some guy to lead off all those hardy looking hobo's pictured on the front cover IMO it's Mob rule that takes liberty's if and when I'd like it if they took the Easter European way and meet in the middle of nowhere, like they do in Poland, same numbers no police in sight and let rip.I'm sure Inch High would revel in such fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedarmy Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 was anyone at george cowies testimonial at dunfermline? blance and two of his cronies came into the hearts end (everyone was undercover as it was torrentil rain) and announced themseves. the hearts casuals (there were actually a lot at the game) attacked them but the police got them out really quickly so they never got a real hiding. if he mentions this in his book, no doubt he would have fought everyone on his own!! i`d almost forgotten about this till i read all the great posts slagging blance here.

speedbump Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 He's like Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up. I stopped reading after the bit where him and Britain's Dealiest Man, Mr Welsh were confronted by 50 Heart's casuals. He told Brad to run on and get his mob whilst he stood fighting the 50 himself. Sure you did Superman! Also a mention that after the semi at E.R v Motherwell how him and just 15 stood and battled 50 Hearts and never lost. 250'000 fights and has never lost, what a man! Fighting groups of Marines at 15 and never losing. Glad I haven't banged into him 15 so called hibs at least 8 of them had Hearts connections vs maybe 20 Hearts.

Al Bundy Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Superb! These books have been done to death (e.g. Jay Allen's ASC book in the 80's / Bring out your riot gear, etc, etc) and are most likely superior if it's your tipple. I always liked to bait Hibs fans at various work-places that I happily let my team do the talking for me on the pitch - And by God, did the Famous do some "talking" against them. Of course they wanted to smack us - it must have been a nightmare being completely owned by their arch-rivals and in so many different ways too!! Anyway, I recall a Hearts mob who would have wiped the floor with that collection of misfits - They were not interested in being stopped from fighting, or terrorising Princes St shoppers, or smacking "scarfers", or wearing cute wee jackets / jumpers with a wee sleeve patch that cost ?200 on its own... No these guys were serious about fighting, had class and were not afraid to die for what was on their sleeves - REAL MEN They formed a wee battalion....Now have another look at the cover of that book and have a laugh with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawdust Caesar Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 The best part of the whole book where he claims that 4 or 5 birds followed the Hibs mob around the country just to give them all gobbles when they wanted. I used to work beside a jambo who wasn't a casual but certainly dressed like one, plus he looks like he could start a fight in an empty room, who pulled this lass in a Lothian Rd club who said to him 'are you a Hibs casual cos I only go with Hibs casuals?' He said yes, took her back to his gaff, did the business and in the morning she nearly had a heart attack when she saw a Hearts poster and memorobillia lying around, he said he couldn't stop laughing as he chucked her out. They had a lassie that ran with them, I remember watching a police show, I think it was about the transport police, and the Capital C**k Suckers were in Carlisle and this hiefer was squaring up to the Carlisle boys, the programme host was quite shocked by it iirc.

Should have stuck with the Gorgie Aggro, at least it was original. What do they call themselves now? Gorgie Aggro was not a name used back in those days more commonly used was Gorgie Boot Boys. Gorgie Aggro was used in some songs but the not as a name for the element. Most went under names such as Saville Travel, PIVOT, Livi, Manor etc etc As for the name CSF it was because all the so-called 'firms' were using three letter initials such as ICF CCS ASC etc all the teams outwith Airdrie have the three initials. Dunno why CSF was picked just seemed right at the time as for laughing stock you know nowt mate:curtain: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
