I live about 5/10 mins from the pub and know a few folk that know the deceased... Sounds like he'd accepted his time was up and that he wouldn't make it to 2024. 

Out of interest, @Shandon Par, what last name of the male? I came across his Instagram page and it seems to be the same as what's been reported.

Couldn't be just have left town, abroad maybe? Walking down to the pub knowing you'll be killed wouldn't be how I dealt with it.

Also known as Ford.

I think it's fair to say, through this forum alone that you'll never really make it out. If someone wants you dead, they'll eventually get to you

I understand to an extent, that organised crime has a long reach, but I still think I'd have given a sharp exit a try.

I'm a bit bemused as to why you have just joined this forum half an hr ago and only made posts about this?

I only came across the forum this morning and thought I'd throw my 2p in...

It would be p&b box office though. Please reconsider.

That's as maybe.

I'm a bit of a pessimist, but doubt I'd be so fatalistic to just f**k it and walk to my own murder. A consideration might have been the consequences for family if he'd blown town. His videos didn't suggest someone bravely facing the consequences of his actions, more like someone under the influence failing to recognise the potential outcome.

Nah. He's facing his outcome, he's suicidal. Most likely through the drugs but he's of the mind that it's fucked but he (probably) doesn't have it in him to do himself in.

It'll read that I'm on his side but I've been there - luckily nobody was wanting to put a bullet in my body (or not that I know of) but I can echo his feelings just by watching the videos. I don't know him from Adam but that's a lost, sorry place to be in. From the little I've read, he was clearly a bad bastirt and his demons clearly haunted him. No matter how invincible you think you are, you don't taunt those out to get you unless you're ready to get got.

I appreciate your point of view, but I'm not convinced.

I couldn’t work out if he was celebrating Brad Welsh’s murder or commiserating. As throbber says I think he was coked up during the videos.

I can feel a new Talk to Frank advert coming, advising people off cocaine due to the potential to challenging armed gangsters to kill you.

Off topic but it does highlight the death of the regional newspaper. A Google search of any current news item throws up all these local titles covering it in the same syndicated fashion.

He was definitely out of it, but to clarify - he was absolutely celebrating Welsh death.

Webley was associated with "the other side" in this on / off feud.

Drove by the Anchor Inn just there. A truly harrowing and morbid experience.

Did you shoot anyone?

typo - didn’t have glasses on
