      Hey, Dodge just thought of a guy who I think would be great to interview. Ricky English, was a good friend of Dave Courtneys who organised lots of the unlicensed boxing events. Everyone likes him and he talks really well, has great stories, and knows everyone. There's a clip of him talking at the Blind begger pub, about his relationship with the late Dave Courtney. I've never seen him do a proper interview but he's mentioned a lot in books.

    Ronnie Field possessed a remarkable talent for assuming the role of an upstanding citizen while simultaneously engaging in audacious acts of lawlessness; impeccable fashion sense, magnetic charm and undeniable charisma were the very qualities that bestowed upon him the title of "gentlemen", despite his involvement in illicit pursuits.

    I love your podcasts good guests, but this one was right up there.
    I was in high down and was invited into this fantastic man’s company. I was honestly honoured when Ron wasn’t doing to good ( heart attack). The job that he was doing in highdown . He recommended me and showed me the ins and outs of what to do on a daily basis. He is a gentleman, as he alludes to there are so many, TEN GRAND STANS , that are full of crap , he is the real deal . Thank you Ron . And Thankyou dodge for getting this fantastic MAN ON ⭐️

    Wowsa, so good to see him these days! I was well privileged to be a pen pal of his in Highdown. We exchanged many stories that we could relate. I also used to collect postcards, such as a pint of beer, fish n chips etc. I sent him a book written by Kate Kraft. Ronnie F wrote a lovely encouraging paragraph from Ronnie K. He also posted it to Charlie K who wrote God Bless and signed it and put xx. Ronnie also invited me to a private party at a wine bar (he was still in Highdown). I were treated so well by the faces. Esp Cornish Mick and his wife. I soon learned it was a contributing night to look after those inside. I wasn’t allowed to spend a penny, had wine by the bottles in an ice bucket. Constantly checked up on by the guys. Time to go home, was gonna catch the last train. Ooh no! They called a taxi and slipped me the money to pay for it. They don’t make the Underworld like they used to. The streets are full of HATE and GREED. Hence my exit to live a nice quiet life! Hooge thanks to Dodge and Ronnie for the memories ❤.

    Plus if you’re as much as a geek as I am with the old skool gangsters, armed robbers and hard men, Krays, Richardsons, Foreman, Shaw, McClean ect, read all their books and watch all the documentaries ect, this guy has first hand knowledge of all of them. Needs a part 2.
    Love you’d to be able to interview Freddie Foreman as well although hear he’s not well. He really does have an incredible life story

If you went for him you had to make sure he didn't walk away from it. Barrett was a well-known expert robber. Plenty of people still wanted to work him

    Finally, someone tells the truth about the Krays! They were by far the biggest and most powerful gangsters of their time. Nobody did has much violence as these two. Far more feared than the Richardson who never murdered, shot, or even stabbed anybody. That type of violence was everyday business for the Twins. Everybody was petrified of them. Even Pyle admitted he brought them in on the casino business with George raft without even putting up a fight. He had already been tried for murder at this stage, and even he was intimidated by them. Even foremen would not cross them. Most gangs have one psychopath amongst them. The twins were two together, always together. They did what they wanted when they wanted for 13 years, far longer than any of the other gangs and nobody ever did anything to them. The gangster who slashed spot back off when he called them in protection didn't even show for the fight they had premised. People don't realise what they were, to absolute lunatics! Richardsons lost the first fight they had, noone heavy was scared of them. I am no hero worshipper, but the facts are there.

    • @anonamous7108
      @anonamous7108 Місяць тому

      You are looking through rose tinted spectacles, the Krays were gay psycho thugs and useless business people that lived in a flat. They were only famous because they were caught. More myth and hype than substance. There were more families that were richer, clever and naughty. As Ron says on here he will only talk on here about those that are dead!
      I bet he could do another podcast long of all the people who got away with pieces of work and murders?

The Richardsons were much more than the krays who were not considered for the casino business as they had zero brains. Yes Ronnie will tell you I knew reggie and Charlie. For your information this is Luca from Sardinia, old guy now.

    I think he is getting his years muddled up.
    Im sure he must have done prison before his 40's because ive heard his name mentioned involved with crime in old books talking about vilains in the 60's and 70's. And ya dont really get ya named mentioned untill you get caught.
