Sons Of Anarchy: 10 Best Supporting Characters

8. Galen O'Shay

Walton Goggins Sons Of Anarchy
FX

Galen started as more of an inconvenience to the Sons than anything. Galen had a long-lasting friendship with Clay, so when Jax became President, Galen became far less willing to compromise on deals with the club.

After a school shooting occurs that featured a KG-9 the MC had sold, Jax refuses to sell guns for the foreseeable future as it is simply too dangerous.

Galen rejects this, insisting on selling more of the submachine gun, claiming that everyone wants the deadliest weapon.

Jax remains steadfast, telling the unstable Irishman 'hands off my club'.

Taking this demand a little too literally, the 'Butcher of Belfast' kills Filthy Phil and V-Lin. He leaves their butchered bodies in the gun warehouse with a shipment of KG-9's for the club to find.

After this, he is more willing to cut ties with the MC, but only if Clay leads an alternative operation. To ensure ties are severed with SAMCRO, he arranges for the clubhouse to be blown up in an attempt to wipe out the charter.

Jax falters and agrees to the IRA's terms, but he has a different end game up his sleeve.

One of the show's best villains finally met his end after their business was concluded with the SAMCRO President delivering a single bullet straight through Galen's eye.
