Man Utd are the most successful team in England.

 

If you count European cups I think you will find Liverpool are.

That's literally the only thing you have over them now though and when that inevitably passes you'll have nothing to gloat about. Which is basically why you're here. They're traditionally your main rivals and they've been pissing themselves laughing at you for nigh on 20 years now. More league titles than you have and possibly on their way to being only one European Cup behind you. You must be gutted.

Birkdale is in Southport and the residents of Southport want no association with Liverpool or Merseyside. They even had a successful campaign to ensure that the Royal Mail recognised them as part of Lancashire when writing addresses.

 

Southport (pronounced /ˈsaʊθpɔrt/) is a seaside town within the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton, in Merseyside, England. During the 2001 census Southport had a population of 91,404, making it the twelfth most populous settlement in North West England. The demonym of Southport is Sandgrounder.

 

Southport lies on the Irish Sea coast of North West England and is fringed to the north by the Ribble estuary. The town lies to the north of the city of Liverpool at 16.5 miles

 

Yes- and they hate being considered as part of Merseyside. Now, have a think why that might be?

bet I pay £20 a year from my taxes to keep Merseyside going. It's a desolate wasteland

 

What a load of bullshit

 

Merseyside has 2 two of the British open golf courses. Royal Birkdale and Hoylake. England only has 4 for fuck sake and two are in Merseyside. Look it up on wikileaks. North East has fuck all.

 

Meresyside has a two racecourses only the North East can dream about Aintree and Haydock

 

Merseysides two football teams are the most successfull in England (Liverpool 18 champions of England, Everton 9 times)

 

Merseyside produces more tourists than the whole of the North East with places like the Cavern and the albert dock.

 

Merseyside has got a concert hall only the North East can dream about (Liverpool Echo arena)

 

So shut the fuck up Newcastle and Sunderland are fucking shitholes for fuck sake. A fucking clog in the economy. If you cunts want to work abroad you need speaking leassons for fuck sake.

1 Golf is wank to watch, and that links course where they play the open is pish. Hate it.

 

2 The North East has five racecourses all of which are more interesting than Aintree. I've been to Aintree it's shit.

 

3 Liverpool are the second most successful club in England, will be fourth in my life time, and Everton only have three more trophies than this

 

4 How can Merseyside produce tourists, do people have sex with scousers who grow up to go to Liverpool as tourists. You're wrong anyway the North East as a whole attracts more tourists than Merseyside. It's a shithole ffs, the only reason you get tourists is dense yanks and their Beatles fascination

 

5 No one even knows what the Cavern is. Sounds like a one bedroom council flat in "Boo-klllll".

 

6 You daft cunt. I didn't even know you had a concert venue. Is that the one the English tax payer was forced to build for you a few years ago it's shit. You've got fuck all like the Theatre Royal 200 year old Edwardian world heritage site.

 

You complete tramps, fuck off to Ireland.

Interesting that the ScotNats are against defence spending but want to keep the UK Govt building aircraft carriers in Scotland and are against closing RAF bases there as well

Wrong on the tourism numbers, the North East has far more.

Wrong on the concert hall too, the Liverpool arena is just like the Newcastle Arena. As already pointed out the Norman Foster designed Sage and Theatre Royal piss all over the modern 'arena' halls.

 

Funny to use Golf as an example since you reckon Newcastle is in Scotland, the home of Golf. You thick scouse scumbag.

I think what's more likely to happen is we'll get an ever more loosening of the ties as the devolved parliament up here gets more self-determining powers (like tax-raising powers, setting reduced business rates to rival the Irish and get us some decent levels of inward investment etc).

 

The referendum is likely to have 3 questions that being an AYE, a NAW or a MIBBE (with the mibbe option being most probably appealing to the majority of voters - Salmond's no daft enough to go for a straight yes/no question as a no vote will leave his party tits-up and dead in the water).

 

Interesting as well to read link in the Guardian link by the last poster - the idiot who wrote that obviously knows feck all about football up here saying he'd go for the referendum if Scotland qualified for the World Cup - best laugh I've had all fkin nite!

Funny how many are becoming sentimental British patriots all of a sudden.

 

Where were they when things went sour in Scotland, when Ravenscraig went bust? Or when small towns all across Scotland were becoming boarded up ghost towns.

 

Now the Scots got a chance to get off, the rest of the UK is stuck with pinball debt and a ponzi economy.

Sadly stereotypical and misinformed view

 

... those ars*holes in London take the oil from our waters and give us a wee patronising backhander - it's akin to getting stabbed in the back, mugged, £200 quid lifted out yer wallet and the bassas throw a tenner back at you for a taxi to the hospital - we're bowled over by your generosity :lol:

Of course the expertise and finance to discover and exploit the oil was all Scottish.....

That's a bit of a daft point. The Saudi's were little more than nomads living in tents but still managed to capitalise on their oil. The other main benefactor of North Sea oil is Norway; were they somehow more advanced than the primitive Scotttish? Its often said for it's size Scotland is the most inventive country on the planet, and it's hard to disagree really.

 

List of Scottish inventions.
