Dainton Connell
Dainton Connell (14 February 1961 – 5 October 2007), known as "Denton" or "The Bear",〔 was a noted leader of one of the Arsenal's hooligan firms during the 1980s. Later in his life he served as a bodyguard, minder and manager to the Pet Shop Boys, appearing on albums and in music videos by the duo.
==Biography==
Connell was born in 1961 in Brighton, England. He left school at 16 and became a scaffolder. In 1977, he gained public attention after appearing in a television documentary presented by Janet Street-Porter about skinheads. During the 1980s, Connell was highly active in an Arsenal FC's hooligan "firm" and was a "main face" amongst the ranks. At the same time, he was influential in ensuring that the BNP -then trying to infiltrate football firms - failed to gain any foothold at Arsenal.〔(Farewell to The Bear.

In 1997, Connell appeared as one of the subjects of Sam Taylor-Wood's piece ''Five Revolutionary Seconds XIII'', after meeting whilst she was directing the Pet Shop Boys' residency the Savoy Theatre.〔 The same year, he was referenced in a flashback scene in the film ''Fever Pitch''.
