Nope, just a cunt.

It’s not too late to get a season ticket at the Toughsheet.

I’ll buy you a beer at the Tap and we can compare Italians before the match ❤️

The place is full of inbred fuckers like this 6 fingered, chicken Carbonara loving weapon.

But crime is low and we get cheap houses, and a couple of decent bars.

 

Hear you. An inspiring story to save more and buy somewhere else (bars aside)

I’d swerve it

We only have two decent pizza places, and one of those is on wheels and is often out of town.

You might prefer somewhere with a precinct like Little Lever or Little Hulton. A precinct with betting shops and concrete benches with enough pigeon shit to make them look like melting birthday cakes.

What's this predilection for 'precincts'?

Just another name for a shopping area, or is there something more concerning about them than a traditional row of shops on a street?

Scousers aren’t bullies, they’re the victims. Everyone knows that.

Come on, let’s hear about this Italian that out-Italians all the others.

And please please don’t say Lucianos. Please.

Luciano's are expensive for reasonable food, the one in Lancashire is anyway, not sure about the one in Gtr Manchester...

It’s over priced, but food is always decent.

Now that Pablo has gone off in a strop, I can inform the class that he was referring to Fratelli’s, who make excellent pizzas but from a van with a woodfired oven so they are often at events or unavailable.

I have had their pizzas and they are as good as the other place.

Their menu has 8 pizzas on it and no carbonara. With chicken or without.

Im unsure of their provenance on a personal level.

Night Bar is closer to a 125 bus stop to get back to normality over the hill though so that gives it a couple.of extra stars surely?

If you travel on a bus, I’d think the Nightbar is the place to eat.

Think I've only ever drank in one pub there and it felt up market compared to the saddle and Sam's bar

Horwich civil war breaking out over who offers the best pissed up pizza. Jesus. 

No wonder the beehive stronghold has been breached by the 575 boat folk invaders

That’s the only pub in Blackrod.

The Red Lion.

And it’s as snidey as the Stone Island gear Royal White sells.

Horwich caters for all. Inclusive.

Well, as long as you don’t need a mosque or owt like that.

Deanes cheap, so is Daubhill, Tong moor, Great lever etc. all cheap for a reason. Horwich falls into this category.

Let’s see.

Average house price according to rightmove:

Horwich £240k

Little Hulton £175k

Deane £154k

Daubhill £151k

Farnworth £163k

 

You have some bad nights out on here

 

 

Does anyone actually give a fuck about average house prices unless you're in it for investment.

I dont

But Horwich was described as cheap, I just thought I’d see how cheap it was compared to the places mentioned.

Turns out its not that cheap, by comparison.

Thats all.
