Millwall

Another new graffiti category for me... football graffiti.  Maybe it's my disdain for football culture, but unlike most of the other graffiti I find I just see this a tagging, like a dog pissing on a lamp post. You could rightly argue that all graffiti is tagging of a kind, marking time, events, loves, bands and so much more, the categories are endless. Maybe it's because Millwall supporters have a particular reputation for senseless violence with right wing associations, sporting firms (gangs) like the F-troop and Bushwackers. I don't know, but I reacted unusually negatively towards this graffiti; I suppose more than other graffiti I've found it has genuinely negative values associated with it.
