Looks Like Raoul Moat Is About To Be Caught - North Stand Chat

 

[Steve Foster]

During the 6 hour stand-off in Rothbury police negotiators said they were trying to build bridges over to Moat - but he said they were trying to double-cross him!!!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Oh well

Let's be honest, not a great loss to society.

Tragic for his kids

I feel sorry for his family but I suppose it was likely to end this way all along.

 

[franks brother]

So his not signing for manchester city after all then.

 

[Superphil]

Good

 

[Pump House Regular]

Paul Gascoigne turn't up at the eleventh hour claiming to be Moats friend. No wonder

That's not raoul-moatly funny.

Can't believe Motty took his own life. You would have thought that his career as a sports commentator and respected pundit would have helped him deal with this. I wonder if they will keep his sheepskin coat as memorial to the man?

I'll never forget his famous quote ""For those of you watching in black and white, Spurs are playing in yellow" - seconds into a 1977 league fixture for Match of the Day at Roker Park between Sunderland and Spurs."

At least Gazza tried to turn up and save the footballing legend.

Maybe, but maybe not if they now don't turn out like him .....

Probably passed a medical before he topped himself, knowing them.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

At least the guy had the balls to carry out the endgame he said he would. No huge tax bill for 40 years in Jail and a trial.

Appears to be 2 shots, not three. Double barrelled shotgun, twin triggers. He clearly didn't off himself immediately, so there may have been a single trigger pull with an involuntary reaction to pull the second trigger. Considering how Sky were almost ejaculating in their underwear at the scene yesterday I wouldn't place too much credibility on their reporting.

At the end of the day, the Police did pretty well. They contained the incident, and the only additional fatality was Moat. Could have been a lot worse.

BBC News - Suspended terms for gun sale Durham Police officers - which in light of the recent few days is f***ing unbelievable.
