Fixture Changes/Games Moved for TV - Season 17/18

Bootle is a mahoosive dump. I also can't think of the place without the a bloke walking his goose down the high street.

Who?
 I think most people remember it for being the place James Bulger was abducted.

 

Taking his goose for a walk la.

I once saw a bloke taking a bear on a lead for a walk in St Petersburg.

I saw a bloke taking his bear for a Sunday stroll in Sofia 20 years ago too. The night before we had been in a bar and there was a set of lockers for people to hand over their guns for storage.

I think of Girobank when I think of Bootle.

Which is why I moved north in the first place (there was an office on the Hagley Road ) - it then became Alliance and Leicester and latterly Santander
I worked at Bootle but lived in Formby.
Bootle /Seaforth takes up a sizable chunk of North Liverpool
Its tough but no more of a "dump" than parts of London, Brum, Manchester, Bradford et al
Next time you are round this way Ads, contact me and Ill take you out for a bevy with some of the local la`s - I am sure you will be very welcome.

The Scallies have eaten the Woollies
I came down to Tamworth for a family meal last weekend - when I was paying the bill a fella at the bar said to the manageress - "watch it he's a scouser and will try and rob ya"
Nothing like stereotyping is there !!!
I wouldn't mind I have been ribbed for my Brummie accent for the last 22 years  - Peaky blinders  has given a bit of kudos to us Brummies up north  - mind you, having said that most of the scenes are shot up here in Liverpool !

Depends on what area in Bootle it covers quite a distance.  Certainly no worse than a lot of areas in many other cities.  You get people though in my area who state they live in Waterloo.  Most people think its posher, but on the other hand there are poorer streets there. 

In short just another working class area with some better and lesser parts.

I was once subjected to Ferndale.

I worked in Erdington High St for 24 years and always tried to avoid going out at lunchtime if I could.

I used to go to Erdington High Street for area work meetings as our premises there had a large meeting/training room upstairs. I didn't think it was too bad. Having said that you should see some of the areas I have worked in, so in that respect I have quite a high shock threshold when it comes to crappy places.

There are no pubs etc in Marston Green. It is a puritanical sanctuary for those wishing to escape from debauchery of sin sodden boroughs of Chemsley Wood and Tile Cross.

[cheltenhamlion]

Have they still got the God awful Blues memorabilia up in the Marston Green Tavern? I haven't returned since I moved from there 16 years ago I don't think.

[Damo70]

My mate used to manage the bookies opposite the Marston Green Tavern and live in the flat above the shop. I haven't been in there in years (in fact I think I only ever went in there once and that was to have a drink with that mate). The Bill And Bull on the Cov Road Yardley used to have a massive Small Heath badge in the top window. It was there for ages but I think it has now gone.
