The Hunt for Raoul Moat - Sunday night at 9pm...

Raoul was a scapemoat!

gazza appearence been omitted.

Hasn't this been on before?

brand new drama sparrow...

biggest of 2023 some reckon.

from the makers of Line of Duty...

if you don't see it i'm sure Gogglebox will review it the following Friday.

Thanks hibby, must have been a documentary or similar I saw about Moat previously.

there's been a few documentary type programmes about the whole sad sad affair sparrow...

maybe Mr.Hunt is in this one coz i'm sure he said he knew the bloke.

Quite possibly, hibby.

knew of him (tatey)  not person hally.

i remember it all very well...made gripping 'live' telly imv...

the night it all ended was a Friday...

beautiful night it was...

i remember John Sopell on BBC News chasing police cars down the road..

and then Gazza turns up at 11pm with a Big Mac and Chips...

one of the best night's watching telly i can remember tbh.

And a fishing rod……

It was a fishing rod and a chicken.

and half a dozen Newcastle Brown Ale.

was the chicken dead or alive ?

Moat, seriously wounded his ex girl friend, killed her new boyfriend and shot and blinded a policeman ( who subsequently committed suicide )

Absolute scum.

ITV are also scum

I remember going to Chester with our racing club in July and us talking about having our breakfast..

I agree with Facts. Scum of the highest order. He won’t be remembered fondly.

I thought it was further back than 2010. Seems longer.

any eye deer wot billys woffling about?

No. That had me confused. I just thought I was being thicker than usual though!

Rico

Have you seen the piece Richard Hall did on Moat?

I remember going to Chester with our racing club in July and us talking about it having our breakfast..

Billy left out a two letter word Mr.Hunt.

Who’d have thought a two letter word could change a sentence so much!

  We always went around 9th - 12th July Meeting, the first year I joined the council I couldn't get on the coach. There was a waiting list and it took me about three or four years to go for the first time, I ended up running it for over twenty years
We had strippers one year on the coach, two beauties from Huyton who then came to the racing with us, two of the plasterers took them home and one moved in with him. He wouldn't let her strip on the coach after that but the lads saw her in one of those Titty clubs

no DG i havent.  what he say?

Comedy gold this, anyone any idea what the Feck Billy is on ? Or on about.? Steaming imo.

Billy had oviously taken in a few cold drinks before posting, christ knows what state he will be in come Saturday Afternoon.

Billy must be getting on a bit now as I remember watching him play at Upton Park in 1958.

Manchurian Candidate ?

The Hunt for Moaty was a big event for Sky News (and the now-deceased Chit Chat Forum on here). The Sky HD News Copter flew any number of failed missions hunting for him. Meanwhile on the ground, Dim Kay would occasionally refer to him simply as 'Raoul'. It was a real shame that she didn't find the body herself.

  What I was trying to explain badly was that when Raoul Moat was on the run and with all the Gazza business it coincided with us all having our breakfast the day of Chester's July meeting and the story was the talk of the pub.

The two strippers sat on my table and I still remember one of them had a plate of black puddings with beans on top, later on the coach as she was stood up straddled between the two seats in front of me gyrating I had a great view of her own white puddings, but this time without beans..

I recall him laying on the ground while taking himsen hostage

Weirdest thing. Having hunted him down and found him why would him threatening to shoot himself in the head stop coppers?

just rememberd something regarding Sky News...

they sent that James Matthews Scotch bloke down to the scene...

and i'm pretty sure on that Friday night he had crept up behind Moat in a sort of wooded area and he was listening in as the Boys in Blue were chatting away...

pretty brave of him i thought...

nearly as brave as when he used to doorstep Gazza when he was at Rangers doing his 'flute playing' impersonations.

Moat and Gazza clashing at 9pm tonight...

thay have nothing else better to put on , its been on here 5 times now r.i.p tv

Did they use old cast of Byker Grove for this **** ?
Definitely a chit chat
What have befair done by cancelling that forum
We have all kinds of rubbish scattered everywhere

Keeps a few hippos happy

you enjoyed the first two episodes Mr.Hunt ?

So was this any good?

i put it in the 'ok' bracket tbh...

Gazza got a mention so all his fans will be happy.

one thing i did notice was how long it actually took them to find him...

i mean they knew for a fair while he was in Rothbury and they pretty much knew where he was in Rothbury...

yet he evaded them whilst freely walking around it seems...

they should have got some of the drone lads who operate on here to get their kit up the road and locate him earlier imv.

rothbury isnt an acre imo.

walking along the riverbank...

walking down the main street at night...

and they couldn't spot him...

they should've got your security firm to get the job done Mr.Hunt.

he was armed with a sawn off...only armed police were allowed to oook for him..there wasnt hundreds available.

Not that special then ,i will probably give it a miss.

People still lay flowers to a bloke who was jailed for beating his young daughter up, and on release shot 3 others at point blank range. Better off without the vermin.

never underestimate how thick the general public is generally saddo.

helicopters were out looking for him Mr.Hunt...

he walked past a reporter in the main street...

doesn't sound to me like a full on 'let's find him ASAP' job to me.

Amazes me that he could light fires, cook a rabbit,
and they couldn't find him.

and walk down the High Street with a hoodie on.

as u=ive previously stated hibs..believe absolutely nothing you read or told.

i remember it being reported at the time Mr.Hunt...

you saying it's Enid Blyton stuff ?

...................

A real eye opener and my biggest disappointment during the covid farce, hibb.

The Newcastle accents were dreadful too.

Ronny Gill reporter wifey shocking accent.

some of the folk you see on a bus or walking in the street...

most of these folk wouldn't be able to function if they lost their mobile phone imv saddo.

Whilst in Rothbury he hid and slept in a Culvert about 10 yards from where he shot himself.
The Police admitted laterthe culvert had not been checked.
He would not have shown up on thermal imaging to a helicopter above.
He was on his way back to re enter the culvert when he was spotted.

Sure it was on the news at the time that a Rothbury resident reported someone had broken in while he was at work, slept in his bed, cooked a fry up, and stolen a thick jumper, winter jacket and a sleeping bag. Wasn't followed up by the OB for days.

watched the documentary last night...

Emma Murphy says...

i had just finished News at 10 and was walking back to my car when Raoul Moat walked straight past me...

Mr.Hunt knows better tho...

of course he does.

she said she called a colleague who was with Police Officers at the time...

Rauol Moat walked straight past them...

dear oh dear.
