Raoul Moat

When Gazza turned up at the Police corden, I honestly thought to myself "Oh, ****, this is how it's going to happen isn't it... Years of wondering what north east gutter they'll pull him from with a blood/alcohol level that's more gin than blood, and this is how he's going to die. He's going to get himself shot here," and then immediately thinking that this actually couldn't get any more surreal.

Confirmation that Gazza (& Stuart Cable from the Stereophonics) really were there...
 
Gazza was never really mates with Raoul Moat. He just turned up because he heard that somebody was getting wasted and there might be some shots.
 
Funny how times change.
Years ago, if you had a Moat round your village, you felt safe.
 
Whilst in prison, his girlfriend dumped him for a copper......
Apart from she didn't but she told him she did anyway, so he got out of prison having lost a few marbles and went and shot her with a half-rubber bullet to hurt her then shot her new boyfriend, who wasn't a copper, and promised to kill as many coppers as he could cos she dumped him for a copper, which she didn't.

Only he wasn't, the girl just told Moat he was a copper to "scare him off".

So Moat killed the boyfriend, shot the girl and then shot an actual copper.
 
He was half French so that's where the name Raoul comes from

Not unless his parents or more likely grandparents were of Spanish origin and left Spain at the end of the Spanish Civil War.Lots of Spanish people settled permanenty in the Midi (where my wife comes from)around that time.A glance at the phonebook is enough to reveal their Spanish origins.
