Talk:Birmingham Boys

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Dispute Accuracy

Patently the Birmingham boys (more usually known as the Brummagen Boys) were NOT from London, but from Birmingham. They were led by Billy Kimber and competed with the Sabinis for control of the betting on racetracks across the country in the 1920s. They were, however, allied particularly with the Elephant Boys from South London, hence the battle at Brighton, and initially with the Hoxton Mob before the Sabinis effectively subsumed that organization. Incidentally, only the third of the references seems to talk about them! VaughanAllen 09:50, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
