ROTFL at Tim Grove.

I used to play water polo ( ...and no, the horses didn't get wet ) at Heathtown baths.

Daiscooby (Sean).

I'm not sure I can agree when Merthyr Tydfil still exists - don't forget they get minibuses down from there to Newport for a Thursday night out, so Newport is somewhere where Tydfilians aspire to, whereas Merthyr is the pits (or was about 30 years ago). The birds would fly backwards up there too if they weren't so diseased as to be unable to fly in the first place....

Mr H
Oh come on, you been down the old school lately. Seen Duffryn Estate. The case for the prosecution rests. .
Seriously the old place has gone down like a really fat bird in the back of a Ka. I'll take you out one night and we can go to the Pen and Wig !!. All you have to do is walk through John Frost Square in the direction of Sovriegn House ( DSS ) throught the In Shops, scum city.

I officially declare Smoke-On-Stench (Stoke-On-Trent) to be my winner. I'm not sure if it's the general depression the place has, or whether it's that the ratio of inbred mutants:normal people is the highest in the country (about 50:1) or that everyone calls you "Duck".

Bearing in mind I live in Runcorn and I find Stoke a to be a hellhole, thats a pretty damning indictment

No offense to any inbred mutants from Stoke

Nottingham Forest supporter born in Bradford
so many jokes, so little time

Edited to add: and I concede that not all the inbreds have mutated yet

Lots of really sh1te towns on the list but surely there is nowhere worse than Corby (although Kettering does a good job of trying). It is the fight/scum/petty theft capital of the worst geographical region in the UK.

Worse than that the locals seem to have been fiercely inbreeding for years producing more mingers per square foot than any other town for miles around.

These places are so utterly crap that even Slough and Langley start to look appealing.
