TMFMISL is as brave and as hard as they come. We all know that.

He takes after his dad.

Very brave of him, and he's done the public (and the employees of William Hill by the sounds of it) a huge service. Am never quite sure what to think about a situation like this though - if it works out, you come out a hero, if it doesn't,you end up on your back in a pool of blood - and seeing as there'sa strong link between robberies such as this and drugs habits, you're not exactly dealing with someone who's likely to be thinking rationally. Honestly don't know what I'd do in such a situation - part of me would like to think I'd do the same, the other part of me would never want to put myself into a situation where I was staring a gun (in the hands of an irrational drug addict) in the face. Bailey's Dad is probably lucky it was a fake - had it been real, the kid may well have used it. Having said that, what he did showed one hell of a lot of bottle - fair play to him!

In contrast, the Least Feared Man in Super League's dad would probably have stood 30 yards away, wagging a finger and shouting the odds.

Hats off to Mr Richardson.

Hard as Nails that lad ..........and his Dad is quite brave too

Edited for accuracy

What a legend. i bet the gadger on the rob was gutted he picked the moment he was in. i especially love this quote

Brilliant"He wanted me to open the door and kept shouting he would shoot me if I did not open it. I looked him in the eyes...he was just a few feet from me. I thought ' I am not opening the door, if he shoots me he shoots me, but I am not opening the door'.'"

When I watched the video I had to admire the bravery of the chap who kept on playing the fruit machine.

Too right there's a jackpot to be had if it holds 3 times in a row!

A great effort by Mr Richardson!

When can we expect to see Mr Richardson in court on an assault charge?

Outstanding.
