ladyram Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 The whole of North Sheffield is grim, Hillsbrough is actually one of the better areas. Some of the big estates are in awful decline. Bramhall Lane is actually a nice ground, nicely enclosed a lot better than any of the new builds. I'm very familiar with Parson Cross and The Manor 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':ph34r:' /> definate **** holes.

Guest Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Well where Hillsborough is located is farcical. It is the equivalent to something out of a warzone, the ground is a dump which for the vast majority of the time is barely half full. You'd be better cutting down the size of it to 31,000, making the stadium a bit nicer especially the concourse and rennovate the area around the stadium.

That's just testicles....Pride Park is a stadium, Hillsborough is a ground, many that remember the old BBG will relate to that comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The language we use is not literal, parts of Sheffield aren't like a war zone but figurative e.g. it's a damn mess. Of course if you missed that day in English it's okay.

I agree that a ground should have character and it should be located within range of houses however it doesn't mean the concourse can't be made a bit better and it doesn't mean the surrounding area has to be a dump either. You can keep the character which I agree is good while making it a bit nicer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walkleyowl Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 the thing is the away end is a dump, but the home stands are pretty decent, if we had the money we'd redevelop the Lepp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was playing a little outside the real world dear sir. Please don't be so literal and approach the world with a little irony. Also I said it was equivalent to something out of a warzone which means it looks like a warzone but it isn't. Therefore your definition is meaningless compared to my post.

Pearl Ram Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I prefer Wendy's to Blades, wendys seem to be more of a family club, the blunts seem to be chavs in shirts. I concur, Sheffield United fans come across as uncouth halfwit's to me....and I despise that Chris Morgan that used to "play" for them, dirty get.

Ash Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 A mate of mine was wearing a west ham shirt on the last day of the infamous Tevez season while in a Utd pub. Needless to say he was beaten to a bloody pulp. Lovely people them blades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
