Strange question

Okay folks, only sLIGHTLY parochial here, but can anyone remind me what the name of the hooligan element supporting Milwall FC are called?

Driving us mad in work trying to remember, and surprisingly, Google and wikipidea were no use - coming up with the "Bushwackers".

I'm on about the bunch of loonies who used to attend matches in surgical headgear.

ooops sorry

Millwall: Operation Dirty Den
April 1988 saw the arrest of six Millwall supporters, alleged members of the 'Bushwhackers'. Four were cleared after a 3 month trial but the other two were convicted of conspiracy to cause an affray..

On the site I found, there is a pic of a bloke in a mask thing:

You thinking of "The Firm"? Good film with Gary Oldman.
"The Treatment" is another one of them.
