Nottingham Crime Boss brought down

This is big news in Nottingham,i live about a mile away from their turf and grew up with some of them. This gang was responsible for most of the gun crime in Nottingham..Some of there crimes are shocking.

A friend of mine was smashed in the face with a pint glass by one of them a couple of years ago.But was to scared to report it..

Never relised they was such a treat until about 2,3 years ago.

Hers a link to the whole story

Gang Leader Brought down

Have any of the Uk members heard about this and how does this compare to gangs in your cities..

Some gangster shit yo!!!

When I first read the title of this topic I thought that it was going to be about Robin Hood!

That's some interesting stuff there my friend. Thanks for sharing!

Never heard of this guy De Niro but he sounds like a right nasty bit of work
Plenty of villians in Newcastle,mostly in the West End of the city (i live in the East End)who fight over protection rackets,ownership of pubs and taxi firms and of course...drugs. It always boils down to drugs does'nt it?
Most of the gangs are proper families....as in blood relatives,there always seems to be hundreds of them!

I didn't think we had crime "familes" as such in England, like overseas..Just gangs..

Well im not far away from you DE Niro i live in worksop and our local paper (worksop Guardian) we do hear alot about the crime in Nottingham as worksop is in Nottinghamshire.

what i meant to say was even though we hear alot about nottingham i havent heard of this guy

Im surprised you havn't,being so close.

Maybe in the next few days or so

My crew of misfits would run through Nottingham without breaking a sweat.

Beware the Headhunters.

My droogies and i are on a mission.

yeah rightie o

You couldn't run a 100 metre dash..

You been on the Carlton Draught whisper typical aussie cant handle his beer!

hahaha

I love Carlton Draught,and for the record,i'd out drink you whingy poms anyday. ;)You bloody gits.

yeah right,,,,we drink pints,not scooners and stubbies

Were number one in the world for beer consumption.(For our population,that is.)

dream on mate

ha ha pint for pint the english can beat anybody

You English..think your sooo high and mighty....

Come get the Ashes back boys....haha

Your friend who got smashed in the face with a pint. Do you know what pub it happened in?
If its the one i'm thinking of....

It happend in the Limekiln in Bulwell, jamie Gunn did it..

I was thinking about the Cross Keys in Arnold.

Jamie, died of pneumonia - my sister knew him and "Stump".

Im ganna keep my feelings about him to my self..

Thats how it was in the past, but now the "silence" has been broken.

I have agrievance towards them as my house got raided.

Three people arrested over the 2002 shooting of Brendan Lawrence on Watkin Street.

All along Colin was an informant, providing information on other criminals.

Its also said that he has a phone in his cell where he controls people on the outside.

Funny, I thought that British gangsters couldn't put the Acting Boss thing into practice. It looks like this drug taking thug proved a few of you wrong.

I think your MMB Actually im sure of it

Everyone else knew weeks ago!

Knew what??

If it is you MMB then be good..

I bet theres no acting boss as such in there gang like there would be in the States..

The thing with the British police force is is that they are expecting British criminals to be dysfunctional and unorganised. Thats not always the case. There are a lot of bosses out there still that operate in the shadows, putting on a front man, kinda like the Chicago lot.

I have a feeling Friar Tuck should watch out. Seems he might get whacked for informing on the Boss!

Lompac, you ever heard of a guy named Paul Bennett?

No.

This Robin Hood stuff is kinda like the Bible - unprovable and bulls**t.

You should keep your opinions about the bible to yourself as alot of people would diagree with you about the bible being "Bullshit".

Im not a believer, but each to his own..

Or maybe this Robin Hood stuff is kinda like the stuff in many of your posts - unprovable and bulls**t.

Hey DeNiro, I saw the Bestwood riot video on YouTube and it was bigger then I expected. But there were those moments where you knew that these lovers of murderers went amateurish:

The ringleader went round smashing cars and one of the owners and two other guys set upon him! Then to top it all off, the ringleader skulked off!!

The rioters tried to barricade the street with debris and the police managed to seal off all exits so the "riot" was contained.

The rioters didn't put up a fight when they got arrested.

And to top it all off, the most embarrassing moments were the fact that the police made such a big deal over it all, using a copter and riot gear, all for two brothers who were violent psychopaths, who drove clapped out cars. took their own supply and commited murders. Heroes! You think?!!

And yeah, I forget to mention, my sisters ex boyfriend, Dave Martin tried to smash his way into a casino vault using a drug taker as an accomplice!!
