Went to put Jay Foreman's channel which has the Map Men videos which are always interesting and well-presented. Then I scroll back on here to check no-one has suggested it and see Wainy did on Page 1. Ah well. Still, that channel

Michael Franzese an ex Mafia boss but is reformed now, its a good channel especially reviewing mob movies if they are realistic but a bit preachy sometimes

Just saw today he is playing at Villa in July, still more legitimate than Xia 😜

I do like his movie reviews but Sammy Gravano has better stories about Cosa Nostra IMO.   

It's super weird listening to a bona fide killer begging you to hit to like and subscribe mind you.

Sammy Gravano voice stops me watching his stuff

I do agree its weird watching the videos knowing what they have done in the past and he may be clean now but its still hard to consider. Was one video he said he didnt know anything about Jimmy Hoffa murder and then went on for 2 minutes indicating he knew a lot more than he claimed

The plugging of HBO Gotti did work though as I watched it recently and its very good

The John Travolta monstrosity cast a shadow over the Armand Assante  film IMO . I think people don't realise there are two films of the same name but polar opposites in quality. . Assante is absolutely brilliant as Gotti and Anthony Quinn was fantastic as Neil Dellacroce . The entire cast is great as it's basically everyone from Goodfellas and Sopranos.

The whole thing is free on Youtube too.

Yeah, been a few times and always enjoyed the food. 

First time I went was the day of England's QF v Sweden; me and my girlfriend had finished a Half Marathon from Wolverhampton to Brum, finishing in Brindley Place, on one of the hottest days of the year. We were desperate for something to eat, but wanted to see the game too...of course EVERYWHERE was rammed, so we slowly made our way back towards to New Street, stumbled upon Bonehead, and they said they would have the game on - and they'd let us eat in the bar downstairs. 

Probably 20 seats down there at most at the time, but good food, good drinks, good result - so I have very fond memories of the place.

It was closed for ages, and had a refurb, admittedly not been in since, so the set up may be a bit different now.

It’s fine in there, just like a local pub but in the city centre. They have all the sports and it’s not packed out most of the time. You’d be mad to drink in brew dog over the railway imo.

If I was sitting down enjoying my food outside and them birds came over and started ambushing me and nicking my grub jaws would be getting volleyed left right and centre....that's probably the reason why I don't have my own youtube channel
