Scottish gangster linked to Lyons clan hangs out backstage at Oasis gig
Robert Kelbie is a friend of Daniel Kinahan and worked with MTK Global The Scottish criminal posed for photos with Noel Gallagher as well as guitarist, Gem Archer and former Doctor Who actor Matt Smith at a backstage party for the band. Kelbie (41) a convicted fraudster, was snapped wearing an exclusive VIP badge while grinning broadly with the A-listers on his Instagram account. The former convict even uploaded a video of himself at the gig, with the soundtrack of Oasis' hit 'Stay Young' that he captioned '#oasismania what a great night. They're definitely a must see.' Kelbie, of Ratho, Edinburgh has links to Irish crime boss and former promoter through Kinahan's now-defunct MTK management stable. At the height of Kinahan's 'sports washing' PR campaign, he urged major names in the sport to help promote his image which included the heavyweight champ who gave his friend and mentor a social media shout-out. Kelbie, who previously admitted mortgage fraud in 2012, is well-known to Scottish police and has survived three assassination attempts. Matt Smith and Robert Kelbie In July 2023, Tyson Fury was sotted out and about with Kelbie on a whistlestop trip to Edinburgh where they popped into a plush cocktail bar while the fighter posed for pictures with tour bus staff. Fury and hardman Kelbie were even treated to specially-made Gypsy King cocktails featuring the boxer's logo and their faces on the fancy drinks at VIP favourite Tigerlily. Convicted fraudster, Kelbie, who has links to the Lyons crime clan, became pals with Tyson, who has no links to criminality, after allegedly landing a job working with him three years ago. Read more He claimed to have served as director of talent for MTK Global, the boxing promotions firm linked to mobster Kinahan, which advised Fury, former middleweight and super-middleweight champion Billie Joe Saunders (32), and Scottish light-welterweight world title holder Josh Taylor (31). Fury, Saunders and Taylor have no links to crime. MTK Global was put out of business ahead of the Gypsy King's Wembley triumph when he beat Dillian Whyte in April 2022 after US cops put a $5 million bounty on founder Kinahan's head. Kelbie reportedly helped set up a Spanish gym for a boxing firm linked to wanted mob boss Kinahan. Fury and Kelbie (far right) The previous year Kelbie was with Fury when he kicked out at a taxi in an incident caught on camera while they were on holiday in the south of France. Kelbie was seen leaning through the passenger's side window while Fury tried to open the door before it takes off without them. Kelbie later uploaded pictures to his Instagram in the resort town that included footage of the boxer and his dad with pints of Stella at a roadside bar. Kelbie, who has reinvented himself as a boxing promoter, is a sworn enemy of jailed cocaine kingpin Mark Richardson (38) whose associates include members of Glasgow's Daniel Clan, MailOnline reports. Gangsters working for Richardson are believed to have ripped off Dubai-based Ross 'Miami' McGill with £500,000 of fake cash for a cocaine shipment. The Daniel Clan's deadly rivals, Lyons gang have reportedly been giving McGill, a former Rangers football ultras 'capo', information on the Edinburgh-based gangsters as he conducted his campaign of revenge. He is alleged to have ordered knife attacks, shootings and firebombing that sparked a tit-for-tat gangland clash. Back in 2010, Kelbie was shot in the back outside a Bannatyne's Health Club in Edinburgh. In 2013, a hail of bullets were fired at the hood's home at Ratho Station, Edinburgh which he fled 2016. Kelbie has since reinvented himself as a boxing promoter and has previously been pictured in selfies with legendary former Manchester United boss, Sir Alex Ferguson, 82, retired England ace Wayne Rooney. Kelbie's latest snap comes just days after the funerals of two Scottish gangsters who were gunned down in the Costa del Sol. Top 'Lyons' gang figures Ross Monaghan, 43, and Eddie Lyons Jnr, 46, were shot dead having watched the Champions League final at Monaghans bar in Fuengirola, Spain, on May 31.

Diet expert 'superfood' that can reduce wrinkles and improve skin
By eating a certain ingredient you can help to turn back the clock and reduce the signs of ageing Experts have said that people trying to turn back the clock can use a secret weapon. Nutritional scientists have said that expensive treatments like Botox or fancy creams don't work as well as a diet change in slowing down the ageing process. One guru credited an ingredient commonly found in brightly coloured fruits and vegetables, which he advised people to consume regularly. The benefits of this superfood include plumping up collagen, elevating mood, and warding off sickness. Speaking on his BBC Radio 4 programme 'Stay Young', Dr Michael Mosley, known for his 5:2 and Fast 800 diets, who tragically passed away last year, offered insights into his own pursuit of youthfulness at 66 years old: "Now I'm 66 years old and I've tried all sorts of ways to look younger including Botox, micro-needling, creams. I once even had my face burnt with a device which looked like a red hot iron." He shook his head at his past experiments with various anti-ageing regimens, declaring them ineffective: "All in the name of science obviously and none of these approaches were impressive enough to make me want to go back for more. At my age and after a lifetime of regularly getting sunburnt you might expect me to look really wrinkly." Dr Mosley, surprisingly wrinkle-free for someone of his adventurous lifestyle, teased listeners that a particular home-cooked dish may hold the secret to a youthful appearance: "But I'm not. It could be because of my skin type or it could be because of something I've just pulled out of the oven. It's something I eat a lot of and which it's claimed can reduce wrinkles, thicken collagen, boost mood and protect me from a host of illnesses." As Dr Mosley triumphantly presented his oven-baked dish, he exclaimed, "This is a tray of bright-coloured vegetables, freshly roasted and delicious. I know it sounds unlikely but there is some pretty convincing science behind the skin benefits of fruit and veg, especially the brightly coloured ones." He went on to detail the advantages of such vividly coloured produce: "That's what I have here - they include tomatoes, red peppers, butternut squash and sweet potatoes, plus, of course, carrots." Dr Mosley explained that these specific vegetables are packed with carotenoids, which not only bestow carrots, mangoes, and tomatoes with their striking colours but also significantly boost your skin's collagen and hydration levels. This could result in reduced wrinkles and improved skin plumpness and texture. Adding to his point, Dr Mosley remarked, "Research has shown that your collagen levels and wrinkles can be greatly improved with diet. Several large-scale studies have found that those who eat more vegetables have far fewer wrinkles and plumper skin. One study found that eating lots of colourful veg - around 250 grams a day - was key to looking young." The doctor wrapped up his explanation by saying: "Why? Well, plants contain an impressive array of anti-ageing compounds and when it comes to your skin one of the most important are the carotenoids. As the name suggests you can find them in carrots, but they're also in many other yellow, orange and red fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, melons and mangoes. "Carotenoids are chemical cousins of retinol, considered to be the anti-ageing compound when it comes to wrinkles. They're highly effective anti-oxidants which can protect your skin at the cellular level. In lab tests carotenoids have been shown to protect collagen-producing skin fibroblasts from damage caused by UV radiation and oxidative stress - both big drivers of skin ageing. "Carotenoids can also coax skin cells into producing higher lauric acid, the ingredient in many anti-ageing creams and fillers which can help your skin retain moisture." Dr Mosley pointed out that this also boosts collagen production. His thoughts were backed up by Tim Spector, professor of genetic epidemiology at King's College London and co-founder of the health App Zoe. He suggested people should be eating foods 'the colours of the rainbow' for significant health benefits including drastically improving gut health, reverse ageing and reducing inflammation. What is inflammation. A hyperactive immune system can spark inflammation, which, if it persists, can lead to joint pain, type 2 diabetes, and depression - all conditions commonly linked to ageing. However, according to Professor Spector, a simple tweak to our diets can change that. He said: "Eating more plants is one of the best things you can do for your gut health, and one of the big reasons why is because of polyphenols. These are phytonutrients, the defence chemicals that you find in plants, and it's important to realise that the same also in canned versions, whether it's tomatoes or beans, they act as prebiotics for your gut microbes that use these chemicals as fuel, and they convert them into short chain fatty acids, which then go and act in an anti-inflammatory, immune boosting way for our bodies." Polyphenols are a plant's natural defence chemicals, responsible for their bold colours and tangy taste. As well as shielding plants, they also nourish our beneficial gut bacteria and hinder the growth of nasty bugs.
