Anyone can be dangerous with a 🔫
Well thanks for bringing that up again for me as work through the yearly grief of my Brother's murder, though to be fair, I think you handled the topic respectfully.
From fading recollection, the attacks with the axe and baseball bat were instigated by his attackers, and he used his martial arts experience to disarm them.
It was not lost on me, at the time, that one of the significant reasons that the cases fell through was the total reluctance of the community to testify in any way in his defence.
A tough lesson for a 16yr old to learn...
I'm sorry it brought the trauma back I never intend to cause upset I try and reflect respectfully the realities of British true crime history. Your brother was an amazing athlete and martial artist and a hero to many and tried to bring that out in the video. As a family member if you would prefer me to remove it if it's causing distress of cause I will so. All the best 🙏
@@enquirer2.0 No it's honestly fine.
If there is interest, these stories should be told, as there is certainly an opportunity to review and learn from the events.
Would be interesting to find out how you conducted your research though, as there is something you mentioned, that seems fairly innocuous on the face of it, that is certainly interesting.
@antaresjj happy to answer any questions at contact@enquirermedia.co.uk. The research was from news and court archives. Spoke to a few people from Liverpool around that time also
Take solace in the fact many people are missing brothers but few are remembered this man has made a short story about your brother and put it on a platform where many who do no no your brother now no his story and his memory lives on
Great research and well delivered ben,sad such a young talented man with so much to give to his family and community hope ur keeping well ben great video best wishes regards Jay 👍
Thanks Jay much appreciated mate
@enquirer2.0 keep em coming pal, ur time and research makes it all worthwhile ben 👍
I don’t want to speak ill of the dead but he was no saint the thing he gave to his community was fear make no mistake frenchie and aj at that time where ruthless
@@Carl-nb7lq karma usually catches up with them in the end
While working at the Broadway Club before I started at the Hippodrome (not that I could have stopped them), AJ and his 20-strong posse would barge into the Hippodrome, helping themselves to bottles of Champagne from behind the bar without asking or paying for them. Any objections from anyone were met with violence. Tony Coburn, the owner, would normally have to summon Panama to get them out. They did the same at Quinn's nightclub in St Johns Market, beating doormen and bar staff. AJ was a bully, and anyone claiming otherwise is either in denial or misinformed. Oh, and like most of his entourage, he was a racist.
Nice one Joe..enjoyed the books and nice to hear the truth.
Let's face it Joey the vast majority of these fellas were bullies
They don't eff about in Liverpool man.
Been watchin for a few months now best chanel on youtube
Thanks mate very kind
If you play with fire you’re going to get burnt
Did you think of that phrase yourself ? Knob
Hello fellow toon fan 👍
People shit on Frenchie but I tell you in their day ,him and Andrew John were a force to be reckoned with. R.I.P Andrew John
100 percebt mate
The people who talk shit generally don't matter pal 💯
@@Nugzz187 oh for sure ,and they certainly wouldn't say it to his face 💯
@@iiTzzDonMike1305 the old school were different to todays generation of gangsters matey, you can can shot by a 12 year old nowadays 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ just for a reputation, back in the day it was the absolutely last case scenario to a lot of people
My friend beat aj in boxing fight in grange rd west .there was murder as his friends weren't impressed with result
Sad but familiar tale. Unless there are other opportunities to get ahead this cycle is doomed to repeat.
Cannot believe some people think these people are "cool".
First met AL back in the early 1980’s in my Dads Gun Club (RR&PC Liverpool)
RIP AJ
Can't expect to step on toes and fuck all happen tap tap tap
Nice post, thank you.
Another great story Ben
Karma caught up to him.
HELLO MATE I GREW UP WITH TOMMY GILDAY> HE WAS SOMETHING ELSE I SEEN HIM IN RHYL WALES KNOCK OUT THREE DOOR MAN> IF HE WOULD OF BEEN ALIVE< TODAY MOST MEN WOULD FEAR HIM> I JUST TOLD A FEW STORYS ON HIM IN MY NEW BOOK> ALL THE BEST FROM CALIFORNIA LIVERPOOL BANK ROBBER TO HOLLYWOOD BUTLER>
No doubt he was a very hard fella what was more dangerous about Tommy though was he could get a small army together in minutes I’d say there was better fighters in the city than Tommy not many like haha but him and Bromley was like the main heads of the north an the south of Liverpool would of been AJ an frenchies firm I reckon
Tommy died in a accident cutting a tree down
@@davidmckay2386 hi David yes that's right. shame. read my book mate, thx
hi carl . there's a lot to say. they were big guys from the south end . if we would of asked them to come do a bank. I wonder. another one stepped out of line in 1982 he was killed also by my mates from town. anyway all the best ,
No they wouldn’t mate he’d be an old man now, he had a reputation back in the day but things move on . I saw Tommy get cracked outside the Grafton and didn’t do nothing because the fella didn’t know who he was . Tommy was way past his prime at that point thought, he was always a nice fella when he came in though .
I heard when AJ turned up in town clubs would literally close there doors down for the night they terrorised places it was the same as when Tommy gildea at an Bromley turned up together somewhere they knew it could be a long night 😂
It's a case of what goes round, comes round.
I bought a sheepskin coat 🧥 off this man,when I got it home I realised it only had one sleeve 👎. Unfortunately the the star 🌟 reviews weren’t available at the time otherwise I would have reviewed accordingly. Not a good experience. Reasonably quick delivery though.
Sound fella Tommy 😇
Sorry “ he wasnt undisputed “
If you play with feathers you get your arse tickled.
Was it aj who fought ungi in the bare knuckle fight?
Not sure don't think so though although I may be wrong il find out tho
Johnny Phillips it was
Newtons third law.
Don’t rob drug dealers otherwise 👎
At that time people guns was less common so if you was a big hard case you could get away with it couldn’t do it now wouldn’t last 2 mins anyone can get hold of something these days
Old school
Theirs too many wrong things said here , no disrespect enquirer just misinformed info 🥴
Please enlighten me spoke to friends and read all verified court records
@@enquirer2.0 story’s right court wise 🤔
Stephen French partner they robbed dealer's the book devil is a great read
These guys are hard bastards would be hatd any 2 people 2 hamdle In fight
Joey owens wasn't a fan
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Read pain and plenty of it . Quality book and mentions the situation with Bromley and seiga
@Theoriginalbigbrillo pain and plenty of it he states it , think he says good riddance or something similar
Bromley terrorised people he was out of control gangsters had enough of him in that world you go about behaving like that it’s not long before people come together to get rid of you in the north you had gildea an Bromley in the south you had aj an frenchies firm people take the mick of Frenchie now but back then he was feared
@@liamnelson4776 Not read it budd might give it a go 👍
