Raoul Moat/John Rambo

No mman, they use it in each country and his mam was French and so he ended up with the name.

Yet it also says it used in English speaking countries. Maybe I should ask my ginger Geordie friend called Raoul?

201. A good day's work.

sorry

No need for the above!! You got kids? Doubt it!!!!

superb bit of spontaneous "getting offended by proxy" there wrightyson. You should write for the Indy.

Who the **** are these idiots? Why bother wearing DPM and popping up their big bright uncovered pink heads (with blonde hair and all)?
Why is their admin lying all over the place and why is the birds bergen blocking her view?
Just send in someone who knows what they're doing for gawds sake.
That kit could be reissued to someone who;
a) needs it and
b) Knows how to use it.

I think they're from the Police "Equity" Division, luvvy darling.

Still, I dont fancy that cow's chances at that range, even if those two couldnt normally hit a barn door with a cricket bat.

😉 stoner

Nice swift edit Jacko! Good work. Anyway back to the thread have they found him yet? Not heard the news since 2 ish?

Why bother wearing DPM etc

Without wishing any major disrespect to people who are doubtless doing their best, they bloody love it.

They aren't seriously worried about this bloke killing them (there are hundreds of them, armed to the teeth) and they are having a very satisfying day out. Dressing up like a soldier is all part of the fun. I daresay they'll be doing what they can to get hold of slouch hats and camo face-paint for tomorrow's shift, and the chaps doing the evening shift are probably squabbling over who gets to have the night-vision scope.

Apparantly the Police have just announced that the reward will increase to £20,000 next week if they still haven't made an arrest as it will be a raoulover.

moat is behind my sofa…he grunts now an then,then i know to chuck him my left overs

that's the lead they've waiting for all day. They swoop as we speak….

All the chip shops in Northumberland will be closed until further notice. There will be no fishy on a little dishy till the moat comes in.

lol

tell you what, that's a might big arse on that sniper bird. Nearly didnt notice what with all that DPM 😉

She is wearing armoured underpants from Northern Ireland. One simply cannot be too careful. 🙂

weight watchers have had a sudden surge of new members after raoul moats warnng to the "wider public"!

She's looks as if she's been issued with the infamous "G10 arse". All women are issued this when they join the army and they are ginormous. This walt-type bird probably has padded pants on to compensate for lack of G10age.

I don't want to p1ss on anyones 'get the SAS to sort him' parade but don't you think that they may have more important things on the go at the moment? Like fighting wars overseas and homeland security? I don't think some fat ginger 'roid raged psycho is going to get their attention anytime soon. The local fire arms boys don't get much chance to shoot people for real and deserve the chance of some live target practice. let them have their moment of glory, with any luck it'll be caught on film.

Fair one, but even the Royal Logistics Corps could find that idiot with some decent landsharks. Going by that pic, the rozzers'll be after him for ages.

lots of O/T to pay for there fun in the sun. TBH tho they'll use this as an advanced real life training session. There is no substitute for the real deal and operating for an extended period with the adrenaline gnawing away at you is something you can't simulate.

Backhander – the cow is, in fact, special forces. Sneaky.

Surely they could track him with dogs (vicious ones hopefully)

Maybe I should ask my ginger Geordie friend called Raoul?

Good luck with that, I hear he's raoully difficult to pin down at the moment 🙂

I suggest a wee sprinkling of this upon the forest he is hiding in:

Ha! Yeah, must be the SCS.

time to send in a Predator.

obviously, a Predator with the correct training in mental health issues, health n safety, etc.

I'm loving the sniper pic above- what a set of idiots. DPM gear, silenced sniper rifles, ear defenders and this weeks shopping list blowing about.

Ex SF for definate!

They will be loving it – fun in the sun with a big gun 🙂

To be fair the snipers aren't supposed to be low profile or why would they have film crews and photographers near them.

I love the "knowing" comments from all the "ex SAS/SBS" members of STW… 😆 😉

… that have read a few Andy McNab books…

It's on a steak out…taxi!

Side issue, but does anyone else reckon that acting chief constable or whatever rank she holds is an utter lightweight?

I thought police top brass were all supposed to be uber-slick media friendly spin machines these days. If it wasn't for the braiding on her uniform you'd think she was a part time receptionist at HQ.

Dear Mr Moat
It has come to my notice that John Terry has been shagging your missus while you were in prison.
Yours sincerely
Wayne Bridge.

I wouldn't be so sure about that 8)

You seem to be forgetting this little incident..

And this one..

Anyhow, if the SAS don't do the shooting 'the local fire arms boys' (aka CO19) need the SAS there to point out what to shoot at:

Why is their admin lying all over the place and why is the birds bergen blocking her view?

The only 'admin', as you call it, that I can see is the sheet of paper to the blokes right, clearly held down to stop it blowing away, and he seems to be looking at it, so I would hazard a guess that it's actually a map, and as for the girl, it's impossible to say whether her vision is blocked to her left, 'cos we can't see there either; there could be a stone wall for all you know. I would say the biggest obstacle to her vision is the bloody great black quadruped in front of her that appears to have slipped your notice.

So. Another day dawns with no news of the fugitive.

If they don't get him in time for the 6 o'clock news and tonights Evening Standard there is no real point in doing so until Sunday afternoon to catch Monday's papers.

I like this scene of happy community policing inRothbury from yesterday:

V funny. Ho ho belly laugh.

I am semi serious. This is starting to get boring, and the commentary is shifting to Sue Sim's general aura of uselessness and her hair. From a media-management point of view it's not ideal. If it all gets quietly wrapped up over a fine weekend when no-one's watching the news the publicity aspects of this won't have been a success. The catching the armed lunatic aspect is obviously in many respects more important, of course. 🙂
