Would love to agree but I can't.
It's pure shit. A bit too hollywood like to be a football hooligan film.
Football factory is much better (although has a rubbish ending).

Also...The accent's were a disgrace to all proper Londoners.
That main character (not the yank one). He sort off had a skin head. ahh, it's been a long time since i've seen the film but you know the person I am on about...Well it was truely the worst attempt of a cockney accent I have ever heard.
You may not notice so much as you are probably not used to hearing one but I can assure you it was bad!

Footy Factory, Green Street and ID (and The Firm) follow similar storylines and are very typcial of the 80's model of footy violence - small crews affiliated by team colours to a larger organisaion.
However, the FF and GS are tainted by Hollywood and visual effects (and generalise 'English Violence (as the National side) as being typical within club structures - the violence of ID and The Firm are more realistic of of what happens.
FF and GS show that - it's more than "red vs blue" and that there are other influences other than team loyalties (criminal alliances, drug trafficking) - and the use of weapons is more common - but also show that the Police and Authorities are top on the problem.
In The Firm and ID - that's not the case - a 'cell' (dedicated to a bit of trouble at a game) was busted but the Firms continued and the police were non-the-wiser!

I liked both Football Factory and Green Street, just the problem is with Green Street is that the one who puts on a cockney accent is really from Newcastle, and I hate the Americans in it!
With Football Factory, the story line goes all over the place, I still don't get some parts of it...

I watched this last night. Pure unadulterated shite, I might even try and take it back to Music Zone and say it's faulty.

All the other sayings that most people I know seem to use are all very well known ones. I imagine you will know the majority of them (thats if you know some cockney rhyming slang)
