Title of Football Factory sequel revealed with nod to Danny Dyer’s antics in first film

THE original Football Factory film back in 2004 saw Danny Dyer and his co-star’s characters snort so much cocaine they made the Gallagher brothers look like amateurs.

And The Sun can reveal a sprinkling of the white stuff has inspired the name of the much anticipated follow up.

Insiders have revealed the Football Factory sequel has been given the working title of Marching Powder – which is a euphemism for the celebrity loved snow.

And in ten weeks work will start on the film, with West Ham hard nut Danny back as Chelsea hooligan Tommy Johnson.

A source said: “It’s full steam ahead for Football Factory 2 and filming is due to start in January.

“The hope is they can turn it around quickly enough so it comes out in 2024 – in time for the 20th anniversary.

“The script for Marching Powder will reveal what happened to the rival factions of hooligans after the end of the last film.

“It’s a real passion project for Danny who can’t wait to get his teeth back into the role.

“Tamer Hassan – who played Millwall firm leader Fred – is also back for the film.

“The finishing touches are being put on the production plan and all things being well, it’s going to be a really exciting start to the New Year.”

The plot of the film, which is bringing back Football Factory’s original director Nick Love, is still a closely guarded secret

But at the Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi, an insider told me how Tamer could not stop talking about the flick when he spent time in a VIP suite with former Chelsea captain John Terry.

A second source added: “Tamer’s character Fred hates Chelsea with a passion so it was comical to see Tamer deep in conversation with John.

“Tammer was telling John all about Marching Powder and John seemed pretty excited to hear about it.”

Football Factory ended with Tommy recovering after a severe beating by a group of Millwall fans – leaving fans desperate to find out what happens next.

Whatever the plot ends up being, you can guarantee you’ll see more snow in that film than you’ll do this winter.
