Are football's new 'Ultras' a force for good?
About this episode
The episode discusses the rise of Ultras in Scottish football and their potential impact on fan culture.
The fan phenomenon of ‘ Ultras ’ has taken Scotland by storm… TIFO’s, flares and drums - like we’re used to seeing in Europe - popping up everywhere from the Old Firm right down to the 4th division. So can this sub-culture be a force for good in an online sphere dominated by the ‘ manosphere ’ or is it actually just another mask for something more sinister? Gabby & Mark are joined by Andy Hughes , host of The Crime Agents - who has spent time undercover reporting on football hooliganism in England, and Blair McNally - who has amassed millions of views online documenting Scottish ultras. 📩 Got a question?
