An interesting one, had he killed 3 civilians he would probably have been released 20 years ago,

Is he our friend? I think not....

Good book though "He shoots coppers" I think it was called plus the ITV drama it was based on was also very watchable

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

We do sing a song for him - well, some fans do.

The death penalty was abolished eight months before his sentencing.

Did we start that song?

Wasn't there once a player called Roberts whose nickname was 'Harry'?

I hope not. I sure as hell won't be continuing it.

Four lives wasted, including Roberts' own. God knows how many others wrecked - families and friends.

His appeals kept getting turned down because the Crown refused to release secret files. I think it turned out to be about phone tapping. Listened in to conversation between Roberts and his solicitor !

Strong and stable my arse.

I can remember "Harry Roberts Is My Friend" being sung to the tune of London Bridge Is Falling Down" on a regular basis in the old days at the one or two coppers that were on duty in a crowd of 12,000 at Loftus Road. Although, it didn't get much support from most fans, and usually petered out after the first verse.

In those days, there was no real police presence unless there was a riot, such as Millwall, when the mounted police came on the pitch and had the horses stamp all over the fans who had sat down in the penalty area as a protest to QPR winning 6 -1.

That would never happen these days, especially QPR winning 6 - 1.

I think that the words were '....is OUR friend' but where's MorganTwin when you need him?

funny how it never works out the same the other way round, coppers can kill innocent people, abuse children or facilitate child abuse and either get away with it or get a minimal sentence.

Never mind supernutty amateur Hoops historian,the one Bob Malcolm short of a rounded Rangers picknick,Morgan Twins late of these boards,I've heard 'Harry Roberts' been sung at HQ every decade since the 70's.

I think it's aired - especially when the O.B.are ejecting a spectator - in a tongue-in-cheek fashion, I don't think it's evidence of confirmed real literal actual support (by the majority) for the notorious killer, more a time-honoured way of winding up the O.B.

As is Laurel and Hardying when a line of peelers move in whistling/chanting
"dud-der-der,dud der-der...."


As for arch Tory traditional law-and-order fan the late Michael Winner who got a statue erected honouring the dead men in Braybrook Street, nuts to him.
Probably the worst film director Britain has ever produced.
But fair play to the creepy Holland Park mansion dwelling splenetic rude trencherman for shagging Jenny Seagrove on a regular basis when she was 30 years younger than him. Wonder what first attracted her to the millionaire?

Haha quality post 18 Stone - it was definitely a plod windup rather than a statement of intent. Laurel and Hardy tune yes remember that too. Even plod seemed to like that one. Wasn't there sometimes a quick round of 'kill kill, kill the bill' at the end of 'Harry Roberts'?

I remember cheerfully joining in with the song in my first regular season attending (1979-80), without having any idea who he was or when and where he had killed coppers. Makes me shudder now, a punch in the face from the Shepherd's Bush police would have been perfectly understandable.

Sorry to hear he's being released, as I would be over anyone who kills 3 people in cold blood.

Is it really sad that whenever they mention the murders being in Shepherds Bush I shout "Braybrook St is in East Acton" at the telly?

MrSheeny, right wing old boy, who is the frightening Midwich Cuckoo geezer in your avatar?

And damn you #CleverClogs for correctly informing me in one of the September Sweaty Independence threads that Slovakia, contrary to what I had stated, is actually drawing in inward car plant investment...still smarting from that one.


Down with the white haired geezer and bring back the real Mr Sheen avatar/icon!

Creepy, isn't he. It's the composer Bela Bartok, looking like a weird cross between Rik Mayall and Julian Assange. I thought he deserved a turn staring out at people.

I only mentioned the Slovakian car fact because I was amazed when I read it. GM are there but it's mostly low end stuff like Suzuki and Kia, I think.

Just checked, VW, Peugeot and Kia, but loads of part makers too.
