Lovely tribute to a real legend in life
I also remember a monster gamble on a horse called Agapanthus. I got it at 20s in the morning. It went off 4-1 fav and won easily.
Thanks Barney. Rest in Peace.
Over to Netflix's now to do a series on his amazing life. RIP
What’s it called
What’s the name of it?

Barney curley : The man who beat the bookies.
RIP Barney, the working man's hero! Loved gambling on your horses especially when the price came down to odds on from double figures 😅
Safe journey 💖
I taught his daughter at college in the 1990s and remember asking her, politely, about her Dad RIP
Great & very clever Gentleman God Bless 🙏
Barney is a one off the greatest gambling 👍 man we will ever see 👀. Great human being. 👍
We will not see his like again. I could listen to his voice all day long. What a gambling man. One of the best among us. We will not see his like again. Generous and kind. I am so sad 😞 he passed 😢 away 😢.
A rare occasion when truth is far more interesting than fiction. What a top bloke💎.
So much fun with Barney Curley over the years.
Mark my words he is a genius the late and great Barney Curley.
I still remember that aw gamble like it was yesterday. After the first 1 went in bookies and punters knew it was on...
RIP
There won’t be another alike
Bookies wouldn't lay 2 banana's to 1 banana great quote from barney
RIP Barney GOAT 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Real Man and loved his intenview with nick luck 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿😢
It's usually "When the legend becomes fact , print the legend" in Barney's case , the truth was the legend .... Respect
Very sad day RIP a proper human being , no lies no bullshit and prepared to help lesser off people , what a wonderful world it could be with more Barney curleys.🙏
Racing will miss him maybe a few bookies will sigh a relief with his betting coups the utmost respect for his work for charity
What a legend, RIP. He didn't beat about the bush, that's what set this man apart! He was so right about bookmakers taking too, now all they do is use affordability checks to stop winning. Hopefully, the RP don't delete this comment in his honour.
This is the nicest and most thoughtful video ever created by RPOST, Respect!
Legend 🙌
I was wondering why I have been getting a lot of Barney videos coming up lately, a hero to us punters. R.I.P. Mr. Curley
RIP BARNEY CURLEY.
YOU RISKED ALL TO HELP THE POOR GOD BLESS YOU IM SURE YOU WILL BE WELCOMED INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN WITH OPEN ARMS.
Legend of a man in every way. I take it the one dislike of this piece is a bookie LOLOLOL Shameful who ever you are!!!
RIP Barney I'm sure there'll be a great welcome for you in the big house in the sky and make sure you keep Mc Cririck and company in order !!
Great comment

What a legend
Sad news. RIP Barney
The bloke who bookies feared
A real man. A Christian to the end.
Movie now!
The man was a genius
No wonder he liked and trusted u, u are NOT a lier!
what was his original connection to Zambia?
Apparently he knew a priest doing Missionary work in Zambia who would come back to the UK for a break. After the sudden and traffic death of his son (motor accident aged 18)… the Priest chatted to him and suggested he come out and see the others challenges the world faces…..
Box Office?
Sad
he mentored this he mentored that mostly Jockeys ;) i'm SURE 1000% there was definitely something in it for him somewhere down the line why didn't he mentor a crack addict? or a homeless person?? why jockeys?? you can be sure Dettori Spencer Queally et al tipped him off when they sat on something good he was of ZERO use to the ordinary punter , ZERO, he was always out for himself right from the get go i can't understand the posts canonization of Curley , clever yes, but only with regard to looking after himself on the betting front
@@MrSamo65 the "mentoring" talk is just B***** talk for the saps to lick up a fairy story for them swallowed hook line and sinker he was always out for himself daft or no daft/dafa
There has never been a man born that has not sinned or made mistakes but his work for charity in Africa helped so many poor children .
He was a good man at heart.
@@bobhadland2554 For Charity of course we say fair play but in other ways not so fair :P and of absolutely zero use to the ordinary punter
Yellow Sam…was made to lose on purpose on many occasion..why is this guy made out to be a hero for that?
Arecibo
but, i have my own Curley story i tried second guessing him once i remember it was at Southwell in a really poor 1m hcap on an animal called Shaam? or something like that, ridden by his job man in chief Shane Kelly i was watching the market carefully , it drifted from around 6's out to i think an sp of 10/1 what did i do? i piled in on Betfair at the 10's i had no inside info it was more of a hunch despite the market ease .....off, settled out the back i thought f*** that i've done my money in cold blood here , then???? it started to pick up turning in and won i remember easing down by 4 or 5 L that was a great day second guessing the biggest snake that ever lived cleared 5000 off it :P
A Con Man
R.i.p barney ... legend scholar.all round great guy punters King
