Londoners are a funny lot they don't see London like the rest of us do. My eldest lives in Plumstead, what a hole! On the way there you drive through one retail park and industrial estate after another littered with old washing machines etc. Then you drive past the posh flats and city airport , cross on the Woolwich ferry and you're back in downtown Bagdad again. Trouble is Londoners and those in the southeast have such a poor quality of life ie long commutes high rents they have to talk us down
I love Stelling and I love his rant, but a lot of its a shithole to look at, no getting away from it...ok when you get out to the Cleveland Hills and North York Moors, Yarm and Guisborough and even some suburbs like Marton are nice, but overshadowed by places like Grangetown and Southbank and the massive industrial plants at Wilton, Teesport, Seal Sands etc.
You don't see Middlesbrough rioting do you I live in Redcar just below Middlesbrough and I can tell you it is a fine place to live just because it docent look the very best I'm sure there are far worse places to live than boro and I have walked across sydney harbour bridge incredible it was built by people were I come from.
go on jeff , do the boro proud ! we may not be the best place to live but are we fuck the worst . tbh ive lived here my whole life and there is no were on earth id rather be
I've been to 'boro and it's quite a grim looking place. All the nuclear plants and the place just looks a bit run down. But I just drove threw parts to the Riverside Stadium. There may be nice places in 'boro but I just didn't see any of it.
@panicwestlondon All the nuclear plants.... the 1, it is by no means run down at all. You probably drove through the "over the border" part of Middlesbrough.
Middlesbrough isn't bad but it isn't good either I tend on moving to a better place not that I don't love boro cuz I do im boro till I die smoggie for life but there is better things to see out there.
Middlesbrough came 10th in the book Crap Towns 2 - The Nation Decides. Though you can't really blame that on soft Guardian-reading southerners as Luton and Windsor came 1st and 2nd (with Clapham, Bath and Corby also in the bottom 10).
I am lucky. I work all over the world. I lived in mayfair for all most 10 months, but you can't beat the Boro. Every where has bad areas. Look in your local paper.
Im pretty sure there are a lot worse places where i live in the south east, example, i dont reckon Middlesborough can be much worse than Dagenham, Southend, Ipswich, Chigwell.....etc.
I love this, its what people didn't get to say on the show. I remember every where else having a chance to defend themselves and no time what-so-ever when boro was named. Jeff did what we wanted to...defend the boro. Might be a shithole but its my shithole.
I hope he wasn't going to slag off the guardian there at the end!
Though I agree with some of Sir Jeff's point regarding the Boro (good point re the Picassos), I think listing Roy Chubby Brown as a local achievement is like Yorkshire building a statue of Peter Sutcliffe on its border.
Jeff also should note the teenage pregnancy rates, poverty rates & perhaps most striking in the Tees area: the heroin addiction rates that plague the region.
Absolutely Quality! Jeff Stelling is correct 100 per cent nothing wrong with the Boro compared to most places in this country where you hear of young kids getting stabbed, shootings etc. BORO TILL I DIE!!
F in Quality + totally right lmao - nothing wrong with boro - thats why half the f in southeners move up here - to get away from shithole london - LMFAO

how is the worst place liverpool we have got everything wat the fuck has middlesboro got middlesboro fc hahaha COME BACK WHEN U HAVE SUTIN BETTER THAN THE BEATLES

Capital City South Parliament South Royal HQ South Archbishop of Canterbury South Bank of England South Royal Mint South FA HQ South Battered Mars Bars North Rain ans sleet in summertime North Funny accents North Slags North Fatty pies and sausages North Lots of fights due to cheap alcohol North
Southerners have funny accents to us. By the way, most the things you listed are because of the capital city is in the south. So really you only have that one point. Anyway how can you argue with Jeff Stelling, he is an absolute legend
Im from Middlesbrough and to be honest, Its rough.
