That's a blast from the past.

I was thinking Ron Pickering, sports commentator, didn't twig your opening line hint.

I only heard about him a few months ago. I missed out!

The newspapers only did a story on him last year so he's still managing to
stick around.

It's got everything really, starting from outrage for absolutely no reason - it even opens with "oi cunt!", through the "I'll take you out" aggression, arrogance, posturing, bravado, laughable threats, topped off with the "do you know who I am?' nonsense.

The usual answer to that is "you're a fucking nutter, that's who you are". It was guaranteed infamy as everyone was left thinking exactly that. Few people can create consensus like Ronnie did.

That he later got convicted for decking someone he imagined was a drug dealer left no one surprised.

A leg end in his own lunch time. The perfect example of who not to be. We have Jessie, but he's just a poor imitation.
