In Australia, we did not have a football casuals subculture as such but we were very interested in the news reports of casuals filling our TV screens during weekend evening news reports. We had cheer squads - not the American type, but groups of teenagers who would sit or stand in the same spot each week, waving flags, holding up banners and singing songs, which were always entertaining and sometimes obscene. This book is the story of the West Perth Falcons Football Hooligans, 1984-86, a time when the Western Australian Football League (WAFL) was King in Perth and West Perth delighted and disappointed the home support, winning home games with glorious football under the sunshine but more often than not losing at hostile away grounds. We never won a title in those years, but we were a valiant mid-table team, backed up by a passionate multicultural support-base, hailing from suburbs such as Leederville, Balga and beyond.
