Despite Vinny's bad boy reputation on the pitch and in movies, I remember when his soulmate Tanya had tradagy died and passed away Vinny was heartbroken,he was crestfallen.not only did he lose his soulmate he lost his best friend.even the hardest men aren't afraid to cry.R.I.P.Tanya.
Great doc. That was as funny yet deplorable as shit! Im happy he's still very much with us as his spirit is a great one. he has shown much love and humanity and talent in his life and carrer. Vinnie Jones continues to be "Emotional"!
Had he born as a Canadian, Vinnie Jones would have been a perfect fit for a hockey enforcer or intimidating defenseman playing in the 80's and 90's. NHL used to have plenty of tough guys like him, but those days are gone.
I still have a puck from a Russian player while he played in Canada, anywhere ice hockey tops from the players can be purchased in Canada?? Wishing you and your family a lovely Christmas from Scotland 🙏❤
I grew up around vinne, went to the same youth club and then the same pubs and clubs clubs in our are area, he was always crazy ,but trust me a top top man in lots of ways ,big respect for that man
I watched Vinnie play well for Leeds, I think that Gordon Strachan had a lot to do with that if truth be told. But credit to Vinnie, he did improve as a player at Leeds. Sadly after he left Leeds he went back to his normal self on the pitch. Great memories though, that one season at Leeds.
Gordon strachan was unreal at Leeds and along with mac took Leeds all the way in 92 even if the king gets all the plaudits. And that's from a UTD fan (the proper UTD)😂
@@mikeryan4055 There is only one king and that is King John Charles. Yes I agree regarding Gordon Strachan, great player along with Gary Mac, Speed & Batty. Best midfield in that time.
There was one time I became enlightened about Vinnie Jones when I watched a match where at the beginning before kick off he went straight to the front row where a kid in a wheel chair who was obviously a Leeds fan signed his autograph.
Still very much Loved up north in Leeds 🤍 If memory serve me rigth, he got 2 yellows in that wonderful promotion as Champions, season 89/90. Top man and a reflected dude 🔵⚪️🟡
I was born in '81. onw of my earliest memories is the build up to that iconic cup final between Liverpool, who were all conquering at the time, and little old Wimbledon. I remember Dave Beasants goalline antics in the penalty shootout, and this wild man called vinny Jones. I can only speak for myself, but I'm sure most young lads in England who watched that cup final will remember vinny Jones. I love the fella. Ive heard all the stories of his charity work, his community spirit, and love the way he always took the time to spend it with the disabled kids at Leeds.l and at other clubs and places he's been. He loves his wife, and his kids, and has provided for them a wonderful life. at the end of the day, when Al is said and done, it's how you treat your loved ones which truly matter. everything else is just additional benefits. vinny did his job, and that's a fine thing to say about any man.
You got beat good and proper. Stop being silly. You got smashed. Sour grapes your a bit jealous cos south London kicked your arse I was there and you got a bit of a kicking from west hams icf outside who were drinking with the palace firm
Met him after mark crossleys testimonial. Lock stock had just come out and he was a top lad. Had a beer with the lads and good craic... he actually had to go in goal during the match because he was getting carried away with trying to kill the opposition, Derby, which we obviously loved.
Vinnie Jones is an old school lad, the man is completely personalized in comparison to most guys today, he doesn't give a *uck if you like him or not, he does it's own thing with his own signature.
Great watch. Empathise with his hard parents break up, really young, out in world confused but he achieved so much. And had what was a brilliant Afro like barnet when 17 ish lol
I loved watching Vinny and John especially at St James Park. Vinny was a top player who the GEORDIES loved his attitude especially when he went into goal at the gallowgate end
I was at that United game in a packed away end. I didnt know it was Vincents debut. I cant stand Bobby Gould. Wish Bassett had taken that team to Wembley.
……I had no idea he even played soccer hahaha. I just know him as an actor, but now that I think of it, the movie EuroTrip has him playing that as a super fan lol. Now that character he plays has so much more meaning behind it for me now.
You'd want him in your team, by your side and I envy his success. I watched him on Piers Morgan and the love for his wife was plain to see. I wish he was my mate. Gotta respect the man.
Jones played in the same team as Billy Whitehurst at Sheff United. Whitehurst in an interview on Talksport was asked about Vinnies tough guy reputation and Whitehurst said "he went on to have a decent acting career in Hollywood, so I'll leave it at that". Whitehurst was the genuine thug of English football who deliberately went out to intimidate and hurt people on the pitch and unlike Vinnie, Whitehurst was even worse off the pitch, even his own team mates were scared of him, look him up.
Loved Vinnie at Leeds would have loved him to have played in the premier League for us but he was flogged to Sheff u the year before it became the premier League. He's been very very successful as an actor and good luck to him. MOT.
That Wimbeldon team was bursting with talent. I loved that team as they really spoilt the Prem League party beating plus LFC in the cup was just sublime. Super Dons !!
There is a lot of shit there. @ the 48:49 its a commercial for the Swedish stryktipset, a Swedish television about football Vinnies or not. No noses got hurt there.
I love Gazza's account of meeting him at Newcastle United for the first time , Gazza " you're Vinnie Jones " Vinnie " you're dead " lol , then Gazza shitting himself asking the ref how long they had left to play "89 minutes" the ref replied ehehe
Wow what a journey Vinny had... I had no idea. He played at the very top of the professional game for what seemed like forever when I was a kid. He can't have as bad as people say he was no way because you don't play at the top for that long if you are no good.
@@edborris6934 I watched football non stop in the 80s . I’m telling you now Jones was an extremely lucky guy . He had zero talent - he just got rid of it with a big boot . There was nothing he had that pub players don’t have
@@RoyRagn pub players don't play for the clubs he did. I am not a football supporter but I know there's levels in all sports. You don't reach the level he did without some talent. If you could reach the top by being fit and chopping someone down I should of made aswell. Its even said in the film he could play well and they certainly know a bit more than you or me. He was never going to be one of greats. All club's need there work horses
he was and still is a legend at leeds, i remember being a kid and getting the vinnie jones haircut all the little kids around leeds used to get it
Most of them still have it 😅
The thing I love about Vinnie... he knows he's been lucky.
What a great video, well done Vienne wish u well mate.

Very well said mate, fair play to you
you do know tanya was a prostitute and a bad mother
His parts in lock stock and two smoking barrels and snatch were fantastic absolutely brilliant 😎
Bullet-tooth Tony.. love it
That's because he wasn't acting too much, just indulging, he's a natural.
The world be a dull place with out him love the man
I watched him on the pitch at Elland Road all the Leeds fans loved him and still do.
How bloody good is this....Thank you for sharing, 😂👏🙌
Leeds legend. Fundamental part of our promotion campaign in 89-90.
We love him at LEEDS.
And we know he is a good human being too.

Probert or Kordic vs Vinnie would have been an interesting match up.
Too much money in the game now. You can't have a player that is sitting in the bin 50-60% of the matches.
I still have a puck from a Russian player while he played in Canada, anywhere ice hockey tops from the players can be purchased in Canada??
Wishing you and your family a lovely Christmas from Scotland 🙏❤
Nobody cares about hockey 🤣🤣

Peter Beardsley scored first in that FA Cup final, but for some bizarre reason the referee blew his whistle to play advantage to Liverpool.

A Vinnie jones doc narrated by Captain Price. lovin it!
Inspirational and motivational at Leeds…enough said😊👍
Ah the good old days
He will be remembered as one of the most violent footballers of all time. Just a modest and very dangerous player
all rugby players die laughing hold my beer
Don't knock him.made most of what he had.fairplay Vinnie. Thanks for looking after Stixxy
Great watch. Empathise with his hard parents break up, really young, out in world confused but he achieved so much. And had what was a brilliant Afro like barnet when 17 ish lol

HOLY SHIT! As an american mainly watching messi, first time I seen Vinnie was in Lock Stock movie!
This vid blew my mind.
Wow....
I loved Vinnie Jones a real hard player. Not many around these days in football. YNWA
all rugby players die laughing hold my beer
Love Vinnie Jones
I enjoyed that!
the crazy gang
💪💪💪
I didn't know. I like him even more now
Great doco, Football at its best, and not a sign of racism just lads being lads. Raw spirit youthful exuberance and not a soy boy in sight.
Vinnie is a Legend !!!
My best memory of Vinny is when he had to go into goal at the gallowgate end and the stick he got but made good fun from this
Tough footballer that took no prisoners and also a top top man
all rugby players die laughing hold my beer
😅😅, footballers today are bunch of babies 👶
……I had no idea he even played soccer hahaha. I just know him as an actor, but now that I think of it, the movie EuroTrip has him playing that as a super fan lol. Now that character he plays has so much more meaning behind it for me now.
He was honest to himself, unlike many of the divas playing the game. Can you imagine a team with him, Savage and Deeney!!!!
Saw him out in Leeds one night …nice bloke
'Cretin' was probably the most interesting word used in this doc
Dave Bassett 1.43 has that psycho gaze..
You'd want him in your team, by your side and I envy his success. I watched him on Piers Morgan and the love for his wife was plain to see. I wish he was my mate. Gotta respect the man.
Proper hard you lad
31:52 five second yellow card
32:06 three second yellow card
Absolute legend.
Would have loved to see him and Duncan Ferguson square up. I suspect they would have had a certain respect for each other.
"Heart of gold", head of lead!!
I'm sure the narrator is bill Murray from rise of the footsoldier (MICKEY STEEL) /THE ESSEX BOYS FILM 2002 / EASTENDERS (JOHNNY ALLEN)
Narrated by captain john price too.The original one ofc
We need a Duncan Fergsuon documentary.
Loved how he handled Roy Keane and Cantona. They were little silent choirboys when they faced Vinnie.
Soccer’s Hardmen Legend Video When I Saw It I Thought It Was Absolutely Hilarious 😂😂😂
Vinnie and Gravesen maniacs!
Legend Vinnie
Vinny love him
Vinnie the MOD!
Now i have to watch Mean Machine
7 min 17 seconds said it all. Backside hanging out!!!.
Think about it.
I was kicked out of a ice hockey team because I was to aggressive ffs. The people who made that decision didn't know what we went through!
Was a 🛎️🔚 at times and tbf wasn't the best footballer but he showed guts and he loved the fans that's rare nowadays but he was loyal to his clubs
Biting scratching and hair pulling real hard man stuff
Will it be a great documentary if the sound hadn't been halfway through that's totally ruined it
He wasn’t hard he was dirty ,MASSIVE difference.
Who did he ever come off worse against? Nobody. Anybody who he took on, he never came off worse, that's a good example of someone who's hard 👍.
Legend forever at Leeds
Bassett does not blink. Creepy.
Vinnie Jones is an absolute legend.
Legendary asshol?
The guy had a tough upbringing like many of us; that leaves you with scars and demons...
I remember seeing him on gladiators they threw him about like a piece of rag and he had a hissy fit but done nothing but batch about how unfair it was
John Fashanu was dirty with the elbow
Jones played in the same team as Billy Whitehurst at Sheff United.

im a leeds fan and we love him, alot of these lot on here are just jealous, look how well, he has done for himself !
He'd have made a hell of hockey player.

All ball baby!
Absolutely!!! Played the ball fair and square.
Made the most of what he had
That Wimbeldon team was bursting with talent. I loved that team as they really spoilt the Prem League party beating plus LFC in the cup was just sublime. Super Dons !!
They beat Liverpool 4/5 years b4 the prem started??
Like I said that team was talented. The Crazy gang was just to put fear in the opposition@@mikeryan4055
