I'm from Manchester originally and went back recently can't believe how much its changed, really up market and yuppy, the 90s were quite bad there. Its worth noting that similar to America murder rates are way down, LDN had its lowest total since something like the 60s and 70s last year. Don't fall for the media hype of kife crime and gangs, its bullshit, just a few chavs claiming to be tough but not really doing much.



I've read that Manchester was bad in the 90s when the Gooch were shooting up everything that got in their way.
As for the Noonans...Dessie was said to be a hardcore nutter and to be feared even though he struck me as nothing more than a stereotypical football hooligan. Dominic and his little gang of chav 'enforcers' on the other hand look like complete tools.
Crime may be down however, but in Greater Manchester there's still criminal activity going on, especially in Stockport.


I think that these guys that are giving interviews and having documentaries made about them are pretty much washed up has beens. You do still have these old school bouncer types that are involved. Especially on council estates you get alot of chavs, yobs, and football hooligan types there always one of them with some sort of connect.Its very much a loose collaboration so i dont think you can really call it a firm or anything. Alot of hype like when the media refers to liverpool gangster as the liverpool mafia.
