Casuals United was a far-right British protest group.[1] The group was closely affiliated with the English Defence League.[2] The group described itself as "Uniting the UK's Football Tribes against the Jihadists", and as "an alliance of British Football Casuals of various colours/races who have come together in order to create a massive, but peaceful protest group to force our Government to get their act in gear."[citation needed][3]
Casuals United was organised around several British football teams' supporters. A leading organiser of Casuals United was Joe Marsh of Barry, South Wales, a former member of the Soul Crew football hooligan firm.[4] He has said: "Hooligans from rival clubs are uniting on this and it is like a ready-made army ... We are protesting against the preachers of hate who are actively encouraging young Muslims in this country to take part in a jihad against Britain."[5]
