Old thugs

Interestingly, the thugs seem to almost grow out of their violent habits.  While in the "firm," they live double lives, one that is very violent and one that is quite the opposite.  Some of the people in the gangs have very good jobs, or even families of their own.  But they eventually reach a time where they become less violent and more domicile. Whether it's because they want to stay out of jail, or if it's because of another reason, it just happens.  It usually happens while they are in their thirties.  Yes, they still love their club, but they don't go to the games with as much frequency or with violent intentions.

  1. I guess it's just like any other rebellious teenager activity!

  2. Does becoming less violent go together with getting married and/or starting families?

    1. Not necessarily. Some hooligans have families and wives. But it is probably a good indicator of their becoming less violent
