Violent Disorder is the sequel to Ultra Violence, Green Wizard's bestseller about football hooliganism at Notts County FC in the eighties and nineties.
A football hooligan is released from an institution near Newark, which could be a prison or a mental asylum. He is introduced to an author, and along with his old friends and family, recalls the halcyon days of mayhem and violence on the terraces at Meadow Lane.
Then, the Bentinck, a grand old pub the gang used to frequent, is turned into a coffee shop.
This unpopular development threatens to inspire another tragic descent into over-aged hooliganism at the last match of season, which just happens to be against a serious firm with a reputation for savage violence.
Do fifty and sixty year olds really fight at football matches? Why? Is the caper THAT addictive? The last chapter has to be read to be believed...
