sylofox Posted 9 July 2014 Share Posted 9 July 2014 At one point the baby squad had different factions. 3 or 4 different leaders around town but they came together on match days. As for the wongs had a few disagreements with them never really bothered me. Even to working in a pub and one threw a cue ball at me as I walked away. Once I turned round no one had anything to say.

sylofox Posted 9 July 2014 Share Posted 9 July 2014 For anyone that wants to find out what the baby squad was about the simple answer is. Find a head hunter thats 45 or above and ask him who the fight was with. Most will say the baby squad. Fvck the wongs going back then they had 40 at best the BS was 300 strong and not kids.

sylofox Posted 9 July 2014 Share Posted 9 July 2014 got any more mental stories like this? Not really I worked in a pub Kuldip n his boys drank in. And no did not really get on with them. was more bothered when the squaddies came in Will add like most gangs/bullies they pick on people when you stand up they don't want to know. And no Kuldip was not there else it may have been different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bss9401 Posted 25 September 2014 Share Posted 25 September 2014 So sad the nonsense with the wongs. They had a name around Spence Street, even as far away as East Park Road but lets not start suggesting that they were up there with the Krays . Deary, deary me!

davieG Posted 17 February 2015 Share Posted 17 February 2015 Young Baby Squad football hooligan banned from Leicester City and England games for five years By DavidWOwen | Posted: February 16, 2015 Leicester City fan Oliver O’Reilly Comments (2)Police have won a five-year banning order on a soccer thug tracked by a national anti-hooligan agency. Leicester City fan Oliver O’Reilly must not go within two miles of a match involving the club for four hours either side of a game. He must also surrender his passport whenever England play abroad. It comes after magistrates heard how the 24-year-old had been linked to incidents including being removed from a plane bound for Latvia before a European Championship qualifier, an assault on a pub landlord and the possession of a smoke grenade. A submission by Leicester Police revealed him to be an active member of a group calling itself The Young Baby Squad, a modern-day version of the notorious Leicester City hooligan ‘firm’ – The Baby Squad – from the 1980s. City magistrates heard how O’Reilly was arrested ahead of last month’s crunch home match against relegation rivals Aston Villa on January 10. The 24-year-old was detained in Hinckley Road and police found him with sand-filled martial arts fighting gloves. He was charged with possessing an offensive weapon in a public place. Mark Williams, prosecuting, describing the gloves, said: “ “Imagine leather motorbike gloves, but with sand sown into the area covering the knuckles. “They are intended to protect the hands, and make for a much heavier punch. “They are not illegal, but are classed as an offensive weapon if there is no lawful reason for having them.” Mr Williams told the hearing that O’Reilly claimed they were motorbike gloves, but admitted their true purpose after it was found he did not own a motorbike. He pleaded guilty to the offence at an earlier court appearance. Applying for a Football Banning Order, Mr Williams said O’Reilly was in a group responsible for organising fights with rival supporters, often staged away from the stadiums where the teams were playing. He described a litany of football-related violence and disorder which the defendant had admitted being involved in. The court heard it was the first time O’Reilly, of Milligan Road, Aylestone Park, Leicester, had been prosecuted for an offence linked to football-related violence and disorder. But the court was told he had been on the radar of Leicestershire police and the UK Football Intelligence Unit for a number of years. His record included: *The assault of a pub landlord in Blackpool in February 2013. Two were arrested but O’Reilly ran off. * O’Reilly was stopped in Charles Street, Leicester, on September 24, 2013, ahead of the home game against Derby County and given a verbal warning for possessing sand-lined leather gloves. * In March, 2014, he was one of 12 youths searched by police in Blackburn. One was found to have a smoke grenade and Class A drugs. * Last May, O’Reilly was one of eight Leicester City fans arrested at 2am in Braunstone Gate, Leicester, for fighting. * In October last year he was one of 65 fans removed from a plane at Doncaster’s Robin Hood Airport, bound for Latvia ahead of England’s European Championship qualifier against Estonia. Magistrates granted the five-year order banning him from going within two miles of a Leicester City match, home or away, for four hours either side of the game. It also applies to London St Pancras and Birmingham New Street railway stations on match days, and to England games. O’Reilly will also have to hand over his passport to authorities whenever England play abroad. Representing himself, O’Reilly said: “I agree that the order is necessary. “If I’m banned then I won’t be there to commit any violence – this is a deterrent.” O’Reilly was also ordered to complete 200 hours of unpaid work, supervised by the Probation Service over a year, and to pay £85 costs and a £60 victim surcharge.

MC Prussian Posted 17 February 2015 Share Posted 17 February 2015 In any case, he strikes me as a bit old to be part of the "Young Baby Squad". How about retirement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
