Underworld sources have told this newspaper they fear the deadly Lyons gang will now see bloody revenge for the shock slaying of Ross Monaghan and Eddie Lyons Jr at a pub in Fuengirola, near Malaga, at the weekend.

The Lyons gang one of Scotland's most deadly crime outfits - has been left reeling following the double murder as the pair watched the Champions League final at Monaghan’s pub on Saturday night.

Irish underworld sources say leaders of the gang are closely associated with mob boss Daniel Kinahan ~ and they will not let the killings go unanswered.

"There will be hell to pay over this. The Lyons lads will not let this go,"one source said.

"They will be baying for blood and it is more likely to happen in Spain than anywhere else. That is the fear.”

We revealed yesterday that Lyons Jr and Monaghan were key members of the gang that worked with Kinahan, 47, on the massive cocaine shipment that was seized by the Army Ranger Wing off the south coast of Ireland almost two years ago.
