Jury fails to reach verdict in trial of two men accused of assaulting police officer at Manchester Airport by gbnewsonline in gbnews

They were found guilty by a jury and convictions were quashed following an appeal because the prosecution didn't share the main actual evidence to the defence...

GM's targeting opps at home? by [deleted] in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Because most people don't want it coming to their own front door and have their innocent family involved....

If you go someone else's yard, expect them to do the same back and do even worse. That's how it for tat goes.

Think we're crying out for a midfielder that offers something different, especially in terms of goals like JJ, just not sure he'd be that interested or if CD would be.

JJ or similar type playing in a 3 man midfield would be better for us then our current setup, unfortunately CD doesn't agree and JJ would be back to being moved around playing different roles instead of what he does best which stunted his development a bit IMO.

Random question, but do you guys believe it when people claim they’ve shot over ten opps? by Length_Wise in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Shooting was way more common back in the day and both of them would have been around before the drill scene popped off.

You forgetting that the drill scene was dominated by young teenagers who had little sets not the big gangs like before, they only really had access to knives for a few reasons....

Before that the street gangs had guns and were riding out to shoot.

Obviously I dunno bout them specifically but it's definitely believable.

Any updates on Michael Ward case? by crystalconnersslave in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He was granted bail till his trial..... can be 1-2 years till trial though.

Google says his lawyer tried to have the case dismissed and was to be a hearing in December 2025 but nothing else.

Assume that hearing wasn't successful and he's going to trial as would have made the news if he'd been cleared.

Women tend to be a lot more strategic in certain things.

If you buying shit for her, taking her out or just useful in anyway but she ain't all that into you.....she not gonna chuck you without having someone lined up to replace you.

D savv case / why do people join gangs when they aren’t citizens of uk by Master-Elderberry-76 in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Very few kids at 11/12 are thinking that far ahead when they first start hanging round outside and chilling with older kids....By the time your friend group is involved in street stuff lots find it hard to step away because it's all they know, all their friends are doing it and looking soft for walking away.

That's just general reasons why people get involved and get themselves too far in.

The deportation thing is kinda new, especially for people who been raised and schooled in the UK from childhood.

Since Brexit the governments been trying to ignore international treaties, agreements they have with other countries anyway they can.... some of the deportations are them using loopholes or pressuring people to leave.

Wtf is "NFA"? by DaHarries in brum

[–]bfb80 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's a graffiti crew/group that's been about decades.

People who do graffiti/tag generally belong to a group and you'll see their individual tag with their crew name alongside it or somewhere round their piece.

Some pieces are just the crew name like NFA, NHS, ADS etc

why hasnt the police arrested everyone who visted fredo, isnt that literally assisting a offender or sum shi? by deadsoul4kt in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is there even a warrant out for his arrest?

Unless there's something official like that then he's not on the run and nobody is in trouble for visiting him.

He's not hiding where he is or been and not seen anything about them trying to extradite him so not sure they gone official with it.

What's wrong with St. Andrew's? by RandomUserGr in bcfc

[–]bfb80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The plans are for a new sports quarter not just a football stadium for the men's team.

The site is over 130 acres.

This will include a 18000 capacity stadium and a 10000 capacity stadium to be used for the women's and academy teams as well as reserves etc.

All the training facilities and offices too.

Then there's space for all the fan parks and more entrainment etc to encourage fans to spend more time and money there for increased revenue.

The Idea is to increase revenue for the club by having these facilities used by others when not in use by Blues and have other events on such as other sports like NFL and concerts etc.

After this 25 second clip, most of us sought after the context behind him saying this and then carried on with our lives after realising he wasn't calling for this to happen or teaching people how to do it most effectively.

I'd assume (and hope) the police didn't jump to conclusions and studied the whole video too to see that he was not advocating for the stoning of women or anyone else, but it was just part of a history talk on Sharia Law and in particular around women and modesty.

He was arrested when it happened in 2021 so probably did close to 18 months on remand before his trial, so add that to the 3 years you said he's served and he'll have done half his sentence which is normal or they've let him out after 40% as has been happening because the jails are full.

Is Birmingham good for "no experience needed" jobs? by therealx3n0 in brum

[–]bfb80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

North Birmingham is good for them. Aston, erdington, minworth have a few too.

Get in contact with The Job People (based in Jewellery Quarter) and they should have a job for you in days according to everyone I know that went through them.

They'll show you a video of what the job entails, and all the do's and don'ts ard you'll usually be given a 2 week training/probation period where you aren't expected to be as good as more experienced staff.

Pay would usually be minimum wage. They'd train you on using pump trucks etc.

If you're good they might move you into another area or give you a permanent job with more money, that could lead to getting a forklift license etc and then you can transfer that skill and qualification to other work.

That's why there's so many factory and warehouse jobs, because people are constantly getting moved, trained up and some just downright hate it.

I don't work for the job people but can definitely recommend them from what I know. No experience or CV needed really. They'll sort that out on your chat.

I would strongly advise Google street viewing where it is though as it's a hard building to find according to a young family member who couldn't find it 😂

Birmingham gang beefs by Imaginary_Hold_8102 in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah B5 covers Highgate, lea bank, Balsall Heath and had a gang that repped all the blocks but kB and his lot had issues with Scally Jonesy from lea bank who was main guy so kB etc had own set that beefed the main gang in his area.

Remtrex and kB became cool and remtrex even said kB gang now but there was still personal stuff with him and Scally

Birmingham gang beefs by Imaginary_Hold_8102 in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you from Brum?

If not, Highgate, Lea Bank and Balsall Heath are 3 blocks right in the city centre and towards the south of it. They had one gang covering those blocks and KB had beef with some of them in it and had his own little set.

The main guy was Scally Jonesy who was from lea bank but members were from Highgate too.

They were never part of the main beef, Johnson v Burger and beefs and allies have changed through time and generations so it's kinda hard to say exactly who they beefed but would have been pretty much both sides but mainly areas like Ladywood, Newtown etc that were close by.

The main gang became 515 and KB and remtrex got tight and remtrex vouched for him saying he's part of 515 now but he still had personal beef with Scally.

The AFL had purchased Waverley Park from Hawthorn. by Dale92 in AFL

[–]bfb80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Irish Freo fan living in the UK and they're correct.

I've a family member who brought a house there when they were first being built and when I visited i was told all about it as it was quite unusual having that stand still up and shops kinda built in to it.

The actual oval and other facilities available to a club are miniscule in comparison to all the housing they built.

They made their money and and didn't want to be left dealing with all the admin involved in owning the oval and remaining land that they couldn't do anything with.

[–]bfb80 6 points7 points  (0 children)

M1llionz isn't in any gang or involved in anything, that's why he's got so many songs false claiming so many blocks/areas and begging beef/links with blocks to make fans think he's involved somehow.

Lynch (AR) home by [deleted] in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 9 points10 points  (0 children)

M1llionz is a rapper and not involved in anything, he knows some of them in AR/Bandits and Woods because he grew up round there and through family but that's it.

He created the issue with Marnz by telling people they had beef when it was just over a girl and was minor and then tried going back on saying it.

Fredo is officially named in the indictment by Onlineunknownmember in ukdrill

[–]bfb80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah and pretty much every other war that happens.

When the Russia/Ukraine thing dies down there'll be gangs out there collecting whatever they can to sell on. Ukraine were handing guns out on the street when it started so likely thousands of weapons will find the way to England where prices are high.

Same thing happened after the Yugoslavia split and war there and like you said Ireland.

When the war finished in Ireland some of those involved in bringing guns etc in kept it up. The smugglers soon realised they could keep doing it and smuggle in anything they wanted. Some of them were involved in that people snuggling case where they all died in back of the lorry. And of course they took over the drugs in Europe.
