No question of that.....................you'll need a big warehouse just to accommodate the cash. A million quid is a fair size physically

i personally think they will get away with it.

Its fairly easy to hide money which has been used previously

personally - you gotta be stupid to get caught now all they gotta do it keep quiet and dont spend the money like mad so as not to attract attention.

If they have planned this for 2 years, i dont think they will have over-looked what they will do with the cash once aqquired!! As also said, all notes were used so wont be as hard to dispose of! However wrong it is, ive got a feeling they will get away with it!!

Not a chance of getting away with it.

£40 mill is alot of money, between 10 thats £4m each, still a hell of alot of money to make disappear,
Ok so the guys prob wernt amateurs, but the possible change of lifestyle and massive ego/chip on the shoulder will be their downfall.

Would have been easier for them to take £2-3m and dispose of that

If they have managed to get out of the show with that amount without getting caught then they deserve to keep the money.

Afterall its all insured anyway..

Glad I dont own the insurance company that has to pay out for that..........

For sure they will get caught though....

I haven't really read too much about the robbery but someone at work says the old boss at my work before I was working there was one of the people taken hostage there. Im sure its bull though. Mate reckons he was something to do with it but you know what rumors are like. I should call crimestoppers! 2 million quid coming my way!

If they are smart they should get away with it.

Plenty of past big robberies have been successful.

It's alot harder for them following the 2002 Proceeds of Crime Act but not impossible.

As said, getting the money out to a NCCT is probably their best bet

That 2million pound reward would be the thing worrying me though

I'd grass up my gran for 2 million

He did return willingly but I don't know whether I'd call 40 years on the run, unable to leave the country you've run to for fear of extradition and imprisonment 'living it large'!

In a sense Rio was his prison.

if they lost the cash and then got nicked would be the best bet as im sure that 10 years is worth 42 million



personally i would hide it in a bank account with regular large transactions


so i sugest that stu and mike start checking there bank statments for any interst payments over paied


btw team to steal cash like that have quite a bit of cash about already


the family that own a few london clubs started there lives out as bank robbers




but these days its alot easier to find,,,,,,, be the guy who grassed em was actually the main man and the old bill was handed a few soldiers to keep em buys whilst they leg it


fair fooking play to em,,,,,,,,,, 42 million quid OR work all your life for 20k a year and then get debt managment companys and the tax office rape you



just wish my mates where that good at planning things,,,,,,,,,,,, we have issues planning a friday pool comp
