The Future

Episode 3 of 3

Can ultras culture evolve into something sustainable and accountable? And what replaces it if it is shut out?

What is ultras culture for? Jayden and his mum join an Edinburgh derby march, framing ultras not simply as something to fear but as something families, clubs and communities are choosing to stand within.

Across Scotland, a divide is clear, with clubs such as Kilwinning fed up with ultras culture, citing safety concerns and financial survival. Beyond flares and fines, we uncover community work, mental health support and the structure ultras groups provide for young men searching for purpose. As parallel marches unfold, the stakes sharpen - this is no longer just about atmosphere, it is about belonging, influence and the future shape of the national game.

Can ultras culture evolve into something sustainable and accountable? And what replaces it if it is shut out?
