What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
West Ham and Millwall supporters bring their rival firm identities into prison, where competing crews control the social order.
The GSE and Millwall crews organize themselves through football allegiance, collective loyalty, and retaliatory violence.

The prison setting and repeated confrontations foreground hard surfaces, enclosed corridors, and oppressive confinement.
