Hundred of thousand of our brave soldiers died to keep u Nazi fucks out of our country; you racist fucks are not English, your Germans Nazi, and so fuck of home. Told you for five years (1939 -1945) youre not fucking welcome in our country!!!!!

[Wizzard29]

Shame all of Fitton Hill did not go up in flames, would have reduced the claim for income support in Oldham by a 3rd at least.

[tetlyteabag07]

the legend says thanks vance you got us an extra days holiday and thanks for smackin boltons big head wished it was me that had done it, buy you a drink if i see you in the pub, you will rise again

[hayleyclips]

Obviously was an inside job, pitty they didn't cram pack it full of pakies before lighting it.

[curlyjim2550]

No..It's a pity it wasn't packed with sad, uneducated racists like you. It would have burned for a month, fuelled with your poison, vitriol and bile.

[01616123348]

your english, curlyjim isn't, good on yer hayley like you

[lisieloo123]

omg some ppl are sad because they to see mapel mill wen it have just collapsed and b4 that they never went to see it so who eva went to see mapel mill wen it had collapsed they are some sad muppets

[DannyEJW]

y did u clik on this vid then??

[tetlyteabag07]

But it had peoples memories on it + Don't forget, Not Alot Ever Happends on Fitton Hill

[DannyEJW]

very true

[frodnipper]

i just started workin there the thursday b4 the generator blew, we were all upstairs when it happened. Thankfully every1 got out b4 this shit happened, apparently Rocksolid will b back up n running in a few weeks but that's probably half the stock gone

[frodnipper]

Because the fires and the building collapsing happened much later than when the generator blew

[DannyEJW]

shit sorry replied to wrong person!!

[espsweetass]

i saw i fair but of this live but that is some awesome footage. fire is such a amazing force and so devastating. i feel for everyone who lost their jobs. heres hoping it works out.

[Mickpeasoup]

Vance is a top bloke and he stands up for himself. He actually gave that skinny paki amir khan a crack on a night out in bolton. I admire this geeza

[lee2217]

i take it vince millers the poor dude that owns the mill?

what was it being used 4 b4 the fire,iv read on web that the fire was started by a generator catching fire

do you hav any more info on the fire

btw thats sum collapse

[ConwyCastle]

I called him Vince earlier when he's actually called Vance Miller.According to tonight's MEN he says he watched millions of pounds go up in smoke and all his staff are now out of a job.He's saying he's going to try and find new premises and start all over again.I would'nt think he owned the mill,just rented the floor space,but don't quote me on that. An earlier poster seemed to have some info on a possible cause of the fire.

[lee2217]

cheers 4 that lets hope that 4 the sake of the folk that work there the owner can find them another premises

[tetlyteabag07]

it was used for kitchens but there was a fcew buisnesses apparently

[lee2217]

i just thought it might have been empty prior to fire there was a similar fire where i live at a big warehouse,the guy that owned it was uninsured due to area and vandalism,they reckon he lost between 1 and 2 million in stock,turns out it was kids that started the fire

[jackmaggotdude]

i could smell it from my house in grasscroft

[FILTHYFAKE]

0:44

BULLSEYE?

I dont get it.

[superowls70]

ISLAM LIC MY RING!!!!

[McMissyG]

I live two doors away from this mill on the mill's side! It was really scary for us as we had to wait & hope that our house didn't get crushed or out.

[tetlyteabag07]

is your house okie\/?

[mancandyuk]

bismillah11111 u fuckin rag head fuck off and blow shit up in ya own country

[Tobletone27]

Id rather eat shit and die

[nevcs]

ive known him 4 over 30 years and yes i do know wot hes like but he wouldnt but people at risk

[nevcs]

like i said beileve wot u like but i know different

[nevcs]

i know 4 a fact it isnt a insurance scam your choice if u beileve it or not but i know he wouldnt of put people at risk hes not like that

[VicciitoriaBabesX]

You don't know that. Isn't an insurance scam. Oh yes he doesn't usually pay for insurance. He is a small minded criminal, clever maybe. Well obv as he fools people into thinking he is a decent person.

[gregerson20]

Thats really bad that i saw it from near Hartshead pike last night around 9pm ish is it true so i heard that around 11 people died i hope not that would be horrible but that looks really bad tho

[tetlyteabag07]

Please no arguing on the Video!!

[xxsammyxx7]

Was watching this from my house last night

Can still see the smoke

[nevcs]

wtf has he done 4 u 2 call him a prick my god hes successful in business properly the reason y u call him a prick is caus your properly jerlous of him if any1 is a prick its u

[thundersmurf]

it's pretty much common knowledge that he IS a prick!

Quote from manchester business pages:

In May 2008, Miller was prosecuted by trading standards in relation to his kitchen business - Discount Kitchens Direct and Kitchens - and was fined £90,000 with a six month jail sentence suspended for two years."

He's shafted loads of people out of their life savings and provided shoddy work, do some reasearch eh?

[VicciitoriaBabesX]

How can you say he is successful in business? He is a successful con artist and even then he isn't exactly successful as he's always getting caught out. Your are living in denial if you think he is a decent person. I doubt you can have an opinion on whether or not he is a prick because you probably are one yourself and I doubt you know anything about being successful in business. You need to read what is in front of you and realise this was probable an insurance scam. No surprise if it was?

[mcraynor08]

ye he wud he is a fuckin prick n he shud ov bin in there coz he complete prick my gf used 2 work there

[flipleg]

OMG my grandad used to work there

[wutdaflek]

Did both the mills go up? They had a decent camera system in there that might have recorded the initial incident.

[tetlyteabag07]

Nope!! the back mill is still standing but the front 1 is nearly gone

[dannydxl1]

I was watchin it in a field near my house and seen flames whoosh up like an explosion. pretty cool

[nevcs]

my god tessLDY y would u say that wot has he ever done 2 u. this fire was not his fault was a complete accident and im so glad no1 as hurt. he would never ever put ppls life in danger i dont care wot u say.

[VicciitoriaBabesX]

You are living in denial! If he is so successfull in business then he isn't going to care what he has to do for the money. Use your brain, or maybe you just don't have one. Most likely. And even if he had nothing to do with it, which is very unlikely, it is his fault for having the generators, if he had paid his electric bill he wouldn't need them. Althought you would sypathise with him on my lasr point. It happens a lot to you?

[TessLDY]

serves you right vance miller

[simpsons1289]

I could see the smoke from my window!!!

[bregalad920]
