Suicide Squad: The Inside Story
of a Football Firm -
Andrew Porter
Book Description
Burnley FC fans are famously the most loyal of all: their club claims the
biggest support in the country compared to the size of its town. Out of the
terrace wars of the 1970s emerged a gang known as the Suicide Squad and Andrew
Pot Porter was one of its leaders. Burnley's rollercoaster history - from the
old Division One to Division Four and the threat of non-league football - meant
the Suicide Squad clashed with just about every rival mob in the country, with
Pot always in the thick of it. Pot's account is a gritty, realistic and vivid
portrayal of the wild side of British football.
