The Suicide Squad was an association football hooligan firm linked to Burnley Football Club. The self-imposed title is derived from previous behaviour at away games where the single-minded involvement in violence against overwhelming odds could be described as suicidal. The name became synonymous with the group during the early 1980s. The Suicide Squad officially disbanded in 2011 when 12 members of the squad received prison sentences totalling 32 years, following a high-profile incident with local rivals Blackburn Rovers in 2009.

  • Suicide Squad var en huliganfirma kopplad till det brittiska fotbollslaget Burnley FC. Den självpåtagna titeln kan härledas från tidigare beteende vid bortamatcher där målmedveten inblandning i våld mot överväldigande odds skulle kunna beskrivas som självmordsbenäget. Namnet blev synonymt med gruppen under början av 1980-talet och många av de ursprungliga medlemmarna är välkända bland polisen och har flertalet våldsdomar. Suicide Squad upplöstes officiellt 2009 efter en högprofilerad incident med lokala rivalerna Blackburn Rovers. (sv)
