What sort of massive bellend devotes all this time and energy trying to prove that his 'own' City is better than another??
Does it really matter that much? We all like different things, it's called choice. I like London despite all its problems, and it has plenty, but that is my choice. Most mature, balanced, adults would be able to see that.
But then F1 is none of those things. He's actually a poor excuse for a troll, evidenced by trying to use this thread to have a dig at Martin, Jon and I, just because we happen to live in the same City. How pathetic.
How empty does your life have to be to spend so much time on here posting utter nonsense?
I suppose if you're a 'single middleaged childless gentleman' who keeps cats and drives a cabriolet you lose some perspective on what is actually important in life.
I think a lot of your 'frustrations' are due to your inability to have children. Though I sympathise, you need to get past it.
Btw F1, don't bother replying because unlike you I'm not prepared to waste hours of my life trying to win some pathetic internet argument.
You crack on and spend half your life on here trying to get a hard on by pointless arguments

The only people that apparently like the place is folk that live there and tourists.

What happened to me in Manchester was an isolated incident and I wouldn't go so far as to tar all Mancunians based on this incident. Besides, until recently, I had family living quite happily in Manchester.

Back home now and no need to go back in the foreseeable future thank God.
As witnessed on this thread London is enjoyed by people who are self obsessed and think being a resident of London somehow makes them better than other people. Deluded would be a polite term for them, but there are other less pleasant ones too

Yep, it's a 5hithole. Thankfully I only work there now and then. But then isn't every City a 5hithole to some degree! You think London is bad now, go and spend some time in Dublin.
At least London does have some interesting things to do. I do quite like the fact that there's large areas of specific types of specialist shops in London. Want jewellery, you can stroll round Hatton Garden, want electrical.. Tottenham court rd, etc etc
Glad you took those football hooligans back on the train back with you though
The people may well be friendly oop North, but how do you put up with that depressing weather, and everyone speaking weird lol

Yup, all large old Cities come with plenty of challenges and drawbacks.
I know certain members find it difficult to deal with facts and prefer rhetoric but here they are anyway.
Some of the worst life expectancy stats for men and women, guess where?
http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/subnat...h-2010-12.html
Cancer will affect one in three of us, better hope you don't live guess where?
http://www.manchestereveningnews.co....cancer-4695359
Another sad statistic
http://www.mancunianmatters.co.uk/co...t-going-change
And last but definitely not least........this proves what a wonderful place it is to live.

Just in case anybody missed it, Manchester is THE SUICIDE CAPITAL OF THE UK
http://www.manchestereveningnews.co....evealed-690872
I wonder if one forum member has driven them all to it?
It's also the heart attack capital of the UK
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/ar...ie-London.html
So if cancer, obesity or heart disease doesn't kill you, you'll end up topping yourself anyway.

Yup, and the answer is still you
I never actually said London is better than Manchester, I just linked to a few facts. Something you find it difficult to cope with.

I never thought you'd resort to the Daily Fail, for a so called fact.
Besides, I thought Bridgend or somewhere sounding like that had the most people topping themselves, or were they just playing catch up?

I remember very little, from the 70's. I'd like to say it was because I partying too hard and all that shiz, but, I wasn't born until 1975.
Liam Gallagher is a manc, and is a **** though.

The best thing that can probably be said about London is it's one of the most effective cities when it comes to prospering of the rest of the cities that share the same land. The only reason London is the city it is, is because of the Thames. The Thames made London the central hub for the rest of the UK and to this day is where the majority of UK business is done, it's just a big meeting place.
Barack Obama even gave thanks to Manchester a little while back on behalf of the USA and said they appreciated what Manchester has contributed to the world.
In short Manchester made the world modern.

Steve Wright nearly had a lynch mob heading his way for announcing that a town in the Black Country was located in Birmingham
Its the equivalent of calling a Manc a Scouser, because afterall, Liverpool is only down the road from Manchester
Ignorant London tosser (that's Steve Wright by the way, I'm not implying every Londener is as much of tw*t that he is
)

In what way do I claim to be something I'm not? I am not the one changing usernames to hide certain things In fact I am not really sure you are even a doctor as no good doctor would IMO write some of the things you do on here.

To be fair the north and specifically Manchester has probably done more for the world than any other city, ie the industrial revolution, the computer, textiles, nuclear power, splitting the atom and science in general not to mention the music and actors and much more.
The best thing that can probably be said about London is it's one of the most effective cities when it comes to prospering of the rest of the cities that share the same land.

London has leeched off the rest of the nation for centuries and still does. Ask the Scots!!!

You take any opportunity to derail the topic when your b8ll**** self opinionated rubbish is shot down.
Basically Manchester has some of the lowest life expectancy figures, lowest cancer survival rates and ranks as THE highest for drug addiction and suicide in the whole of the UK. What a wonderful place to live, if only I could afford to move there

PS You derailed the topic talking about Manchester. The topic is London and why, aside from it being full of odious types like you, it is so crap!
