Cockney Reds : the story of Manchester United's Southern Army

Cleur, Robert2019
Books
The name 'Cockney Reds' stuck in the early seventies, by which time hundreds of youths from the South were following Manchester United. Robert 'Banana Bob' Cleur emerged as their leader, working on building sites to fund his drinking and brawlers trips around the country, backed by a formidable army of fighters. This book is a candid account of a period of terrace history that will never be repeated, and of the camaraderie and chaos of a hooligan gang based on enemy turf.
