Mark Denton murdered

[banjo]

Stabbed her then hung himself. Some sort of domestic dispute. It was on the next street to me.

There was a shooting last year and he year before a lad I know slit his own throat at home.

Apart from that it's dead quiet.

I see what you did there.

So you live in Scawsby then orb?

Thanks for pointing that out to the two

The truth will come out I'm vocal because I know what it's like up there. Before I moved up there I thought gangsters were only in films yet less than a week after moving up there I had a gun pointed at me and also saw a lot of things up there what you wouldn't believe true. It's a hard hard town but if what I was told is true than it was more a case of people thinking they're above the law just like loads up there do

I reckon they may twin town Hartlepool and Doncaster, they seem very similar places.[/quote]

Hartlecaster or Donkypool?

All you say is true, I have a few good poolie mates and lived there a year, I don´t know anywhere else in the world that you need to say very little to the wrong person at the wrong time and this type of thing can occur

I drove my son to a kids house there around 2009 a kid called Brooksbank think his name was, they were both in the army together in Wiltshire so had to take them both down there.

effing hell, Doncaster sounds like the worst place on the planet

It spawned Jeremy Clarkson, it's like the gateway to the dimension of chaos, apparently all the residents have pubic hair on their head just like JC.

I've drunk in Hartlepool many times and attended boxing at the Borough Hall. Been to the footy there a lot too. Had some great nights. Not for a few years now mind.

Doncaster is not that bad. I used to go out there back in the day. I`d rather a night out in Donny than a night out in South Emsall or Barnsley.

Don`t think I`ve ever been to barnsley without getting into some trouble, plus I`m a lover not a fighter.

They would come over with their classic line looking for a bit of biffo "is thy lookin at me pint?" Gotta love the Barnsley chav after a skinfull.

Yeah, one side is numbers, the other side is names. I know his neighbours pretty well.

If it's the one I'm thinking of, he's a massive Conservative.

Neil Malpass was from South Emsall, funny I was talking to a couple of lasses in casualty the other month from there. They knew him too. Malpass beat Paul Sykes btw

A pub? There's four! It's a tiny village, can't be more than a thousand people there.

What do you know about the Gabrielle Stanley Stabbing in Donny, boyfriend stabbed her.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... tured.html


He was a body builder and generally there is something behind the scenes in bodybuilding.

Actually this happened in Scawsby, my sons mate lives there was in the RA together

Just what I've seen in the Star; he was a fair bit older than her, I imagine she wanted to leave him and he couldn't handle it.

Scawsby and Scawthorpe are really nice areas; that lad who slit his throat, was it Cliff Moore? He was a decent MMA fighter.

Although its rougher around the edges, I've always found Barnsley to be a friendlier place than Doncaster which seems to have really unpleasant inhabitants, and quite a hostile atmosphere in general. It's quite varied though, surprisingly there are some fairly leafy suburbs dotted about the town as well as some pretty deprived areas. Places like South Elmsall are worse in some ways - poorer and more parochial - but it's not really fair to compare it with Doncaster. South Elmsall isn't much more than a big pit village really, more comaparable to smaller towns like, say, Mexborough or Wath. Donny's a much bigger place, more comparable to Barnsley, Wakefield, Huddersfield etc., in terms of size at least.

It's more or less the town centre and a collection of villages. Some of them (ex) pit villages and some of them more traditional villages. It always made me laugh when people were at pains to differentiate that they lived in "old" Edlington (never Eldo) or "old" Rossington (never Rosso) and they were from BessARcer or "old" Cantley. Or worse still, Bawtry.

It's a real town of contradictions - Proper old school inverted snobs that still talk with a thick as you like accent, and people who write into the newspaper asking why we need or want an airport

Yeah, that's him. I grew up with him, I remember him running amok at playgroup when he was 3 or 4 and all the mums tutting. He was good mates with a load of lads I lived on the estate with so hung around with him frequently. He was definitely a loose cannon, had a lot to prove but if you got to know him he was actually an alright lad in a slightly twisted way - You had to prove yourself to him. He was a full-on pisstaker, my brother never liked him but I had time for him if he wasn't "on one" and out to prove himself that evening. I remember sitting in a living room with him, we're all stoned and he's hitting a shotgun shell with a metal keyring, trying to set it off. I don't think he ever really thought through the consequences of what he was doing [to others].

Yeah he was half decent at MMA by all accounts. He could handle himself, always could.

I think that's possibly the first time I've seen Scawthorpe described as a really nice area, haha.

Edlo was great prior to 81, apart from getting the odd kick in from bullies there was no real trouble to speak of. It was a friendly village, of course it was a pit village but during the strike it turned the village upside down, naturally. My uncle and grandad was Yorkshire Main through and through, man and boy. the scabs didnt have a chance in Edlo, windows smashed and houses burned kids getting sorted in school. Still to this day its a sore subject, families still do not talk etc etc.

Our street, Princes Cresent was amongst the best houses in Edlo, up top of the village it was mainly council houses but still a good community. Princes Cres as seen its day its fkucing horrible site down there now. You only have to search google now to see the shit hole. but its because the pit closed and the community basically gave in.

Here a quick google search, BTW none of the women here are my wife, haha, I married a Northern lass.
