Criminals spend money freely in pubs clubs etc that attracts lots of girls girls attract lots of boys. Lots of different gangs of boys all drinking in the same pub trying to chat up the same girls is a recipe fo trouble. Pubs and clubs needed people like the Krays to keep order even if it was just use of their name
Got this DVD 'Suited and Booted' and very interesting it was to listen to as well. Tony had a wonderful way of telling his Life story. Really compelling . God Bless you Tony +
Mark Lester if we still had them (the krays) the streets would be much safer.......the twins wouldnt even recognise Londons eastend if they were still alive......there is no order of things anymore, very sad
Fun fact; As boys, this man & his brother Chris, during WWII, along with their mother were leaving a cinema after watching the news reels, & were approached by a man who offered mother a cup of tea in a nearby cafe. Some years later Christopher saw a picture of that man in the newspapers after being hanged for murder.The man's name was John Reginald Haliday Christie. FACT
respect Tony he was man of honour did a big thing of getting rid of body then keeping mouth shut then doing 15 year for it not many would do that he deserves respect for that he stayed true to the code of never grassing unlike the other pussy boys in the firm only ian Barrie and Freddie foreman and tony and his brother stood up and took it on chin so all give credit were it due while others round him squelled like pigs he stayed loyal R.IP Tony
Any book the twins wrote had to pass through many diff hands before it was published and many mistakes and lies were put in them Reggie's own words in his last book and Tony was held in very high regard by everyone when he came out and wrote book with Freddie foreman and people like them would not have had any involvement with him if he was a grass so id rather take that as evidence rather than words in a book that passed through many journalists hands who put lies in I meen look at the book our story by Fred dineage absolute rubbish lies again Reggie's words in his last book which he had more control over than previous
I'm pleasantly surprised at how articulatleyand concisely Tony Lambrianou presents his accounts.🙂 He also comes accross as being honest in what he says.🙂👍
@@michaelharrison3602 He was a shitman nothing more, he said when asked do you think your life could have turned out different he said no.We all have choices he was weak a follower a shitman
In London, gangsters at least had standards then and were no real threat to ordinary people. A pub that a famous individual used would suddenly become busy with 'watchers,' Ask Patsie Smith!
Wow, I ant listened to Tony since 5 years before he died,I’d forgot how great a speaker he was,when I was 12 Tony’s hair cut and look appealed to me.Iv still got the same soppy hair cut now I’m 48,I must of liked it then,
If you can't understand it, then you don't speak it. Its English as you full well know, and that is how it is spoken. However you speak it is the incorrect imitation.
gotta laugh at some of the comments on here,obviously no fucking clue what you're talking about especially those clowns who are using my family name to get attention.....research before you comment and as for u2 that are calling yourself ron and reg kray....BEHAVE
I don't understand why people call these men gangsters. They were never gangsters they were runner's, driver's scives. If these men hadn't gone to prison for the krays no-one would ever have heard of them outside the pub's they drank in. It's mad how some people get built up with lies. Wasted year's and for what. ☘️✌🏻
i respect this man and his brother took there bird did not grass to get lesser sentence old school dont admire him or any for being a gangster but this guy cant help but like him hope tony and brother have left that life behind sure they have respect deserved rip tony since learned of your death
Ihis loyalty is undeniable but had he lived longer would he have started saying he was gunner kill him too?I don’t think so because he did a lot of shovel for little reason,3 years for driving the car but that should have been it,a nice man,great speaker too
Tony RIP but no one gives a brass razoo about you they just want to know about the Krays . 15 years for nothing . Its is all funny until a gangster wants to extort you and then OOOOH ME they are not that nice are they ??? Not even sweet talking Tony . They are all dogs at the end of the day.
don't believe everything you hear, especially if it's from people from different generations, to be fair though, having read most of the books written about the Krays and those around them, I don't think he was a major criminal or hard man, more of a hanger on, a joey if you will, he was there to see it all though
If he did not ,the Krays would have dealt with him and they did not.That says something.All the shit comes out when these people die and you are all so brave.Did you tell that to his face?Go and take a look at who was at his funeral.
@@johnnywires943 he was an underling , a goffer , thats all the twins demanded of him , did i tell him that face to face ! course not , i never met the geezer , i only know what i have heard from other sources . who are you anyway , you seem to be well informed , gonna bring out a book are you !
@@swarthyjake4433Not everybody around the Krays could be a leader.They were all part of a team.Tony and his brother were part of that and they stayed loyal to the twins.No need to bring out a book,there are many out there and films also.I suggest you read some.
