I don't believe it for a second! I thought everywhere was quaint & peaceful before we came? Cup of tea with the little finger out and all that? I am shocked!
Possible..if this was in 1983 then Dave Hunt would have been 22 and well into his criminal career. Although, Canning Town had a number of gangs..although by mid 80s..the snipers were the dominant ones with Dave being the head (allegedly)
I've met with mates in that pub on a few occasions. The owner was Scottish & the lads took the piss because he was Catholic. The no smoking ban never came into effect & the walls dripped with nicotine. There was a shotgun behind the bar. Lovely boozer.
Turns out it was actually the local council who sent some 'naughty geezers' to this place as they had no joanna for a knees-up. Blatant contravention of the local by-laws. A right old barrel of cockney monkeys, and no mistakin'!
JT would have been working in the boxing gym above this pub as a trainer during this period. Mind you, if this had happened a decade before...could have been a different story. This pub was always a dump like most of the ones in E16. Stay away!!
A gang from Canning Town. A-lot of them ended up going on to form one of the biggest crime firms in London (Canning Town cartel is what you’d find them under online, but that’s a ridiculous press name, and they’ve all been straight-goers for years now)
Anyone who says there were no very violent pubs and clubs back then is a fool. Anyone who says violent crime hasn’t grown massively since then is a complete f ing moron.
Because Acid attacks, grooming gangs, racially aggrevated attacks, deliberate ethnic segregation and takeovers is the same as punters fighting eachother. You're absolutely delusional and the reason why this country is a cesspit.
The difference was with the gangs back then, there was order, people had more respect, if there was problems, you’d ask for help not from the police but the people running that manor
Landlord got some balls
Well he was a keen golfer. Ambidextrous too. Some say he swung both ways.
Oo er missus.
Chase me!
Sounds wonderful

"Get outta my Pub" 😂
Wait till Dagenham Dave hears about this ! He will do allot of damage ! 😂
Sadiq Khans London and small boats bringing ruin to the glorious halcyon east end
Passed out with fright 😂😂
This was Ronnie Pickering's favourite pub. It is where he learned to be hard.
you can laugh all you want, Ronnie was a big man and still knows people who know people...
Who?
@@martinwilson2660 Don't you know who Ronnie Pickering is?

Sounds a wonderful place, however, I do prefer The Ned.

You just can't beat a good old English pub

He looks like John Terry.
Crossed with Sean bean lol
No wonder most of the pubs closed in Canning Town
Good ol london 😂 🇬🇧❤️

The East End is a place I avoid. And, South East London.
You can speak English...nobody would understand a word you say there nowadays anyway.
And London. And the south.
I was born in the East End (Plaistow) and now I live in South East London!😲🤣
Born and bred in my then wonderful Sarf East London.
Unrecognisable now.

I miss the old boozers.
Wouldnt have surprised me if Jimmy Tibbs had some involvement in that trouble.He was involved in some gang activities
What a load of shite
@@G.E.MTFC_ He was associated with some villians
No shit @@brianmorecombe2726

Back in the day when villains were white ?
Who are the snipers 😅

John Terry
Bingo
The Royal Oak in Nitshill Glasga was some boozer
Isn’t it exiting
Normal for Canning Town
Turned into flats now judging by google maps...
It's called Meydan now a restaurant

Well before all the immigrants came over. Just goes to show our little old island is not as peaceful and perfect or great as everyone believes it was.

DH was never friends with the snipers,this was nothing to do with him, guaranteed...😂
Davey hunt and the snipers
No!
@jasonantigua6825 elaborate please:)
sounds like a shit boy band
Good band in the 60s
Agreed, their song "i'll kick your head in" is one of my all time favourites, closely followed by " who the fuck are you staring at". Great tunes.
can't work out if the landlord used botox.
Looks like a psychopath ,real landlords back then ,just kids managing pubs now
