Scousers never change.

Love the Liverpool love in here. I might be bias as I have lived in the area for 18 years (I'm 41) but if you gave me a choice of living here vs living where I am from (Doncaster) based on several factors including jobs, entertainment and people, I wouldn't pick Donny ever.

The sweeping generalisations on here that ALL Scousers are out to rob you, scam you, steal the clothes you standing up in is pathetic. I have felt less welcome in my home city and even in Sheffield recently.
It’s your Scouse accent errr Scouse Blade
 
Tell me where that is exactly in Liverpool? Most petrol stations across the country you pay at the pump so to generalise that Scousers steal it is a bit of a stretch
To be fair it is quite a long time ago! It was in Huyton. I was gobsmacked! Also to be fair, you living there will give you a better perspective. I suppose it reflects me living in Barnsley (which I like, and is also different to generalisations made by people who don't know the place).
Fair cop as they say!
 
I've been to both Liverpool and Everton around 15 times each .
I work in Liverpool alot. I detest the people .
Thieves scroungers the lot. It ain't even s nice city . Me and ex stayed there often .
Ask Liverpool about our cup semis early 90s , they had mini buses turned over by blades because of mouth . Arkles pub they came in and a few old stool blades sorted em

Barnsley town centre pisses all over Sheffield these days.
 
Liverpool is one of the best cities in the country. Of course it has shithole areas and twats but so does everywhere. These arguments always make me laugh, they’re always littered with generalisations and often from people who have never even visited said place or if they have its been for a matter of hours for the football.

I think one of the reasons people dont like scousers is that they’re actually proud of their city and they like to shout about it. A stark contrast to Sheffield where people cant wait to slag it off.

Nailed it. Scousers are proud, they are also aware that there are elements in the city that drag it down but hey where doesnt have those places.
 

On one hand, I always enjoy a visit to Liverpool. Great architecture, fascinating social and political history, smashing pubs, two of my favourite football grounds, the sea, family connections, long history of top-notch bands, galleries, museums, etc.


On the other hand:

I appreciate this is anecdotal, but in my experience when I visit Liverpool, the need to pay up front in petrol stations, and the number of shops where everything is behind screens stands out from other places.

On my last visit, every single time I stood outside the pub having a tab I was approached by a beggar. On one occasion, the beggar was pushed off by a local who said they were embarrassing the city. They themselves started asking me for cash! :)

For balance, it's a great city, and whenever I've talked with anyone from Liverpool, they've been great people.
Lived there 2001-2004, and haven't been back but for footie in 2019.

During my time there...
Remember the screens in some (not all) shops even back then.
The one thing I found strange was you didn't put your bin out in the area I lived. Instead, you chucked your bags of rubbish over the back wall into the gennel, which was gated off at either end, and the binmen came and cleared the gennel once a week. Thought it was fucking weird.

Was the only place I've been where every time I went to an ATM in the city centre, I was asked for money by tramps.

Was the only place I've been set up on by a large group of youths in the dark to steal 10 quid off me.

Never seen queues of people outside post offices like I did in Liverpool.

The Doctors surgery had fencing on its windows for protection.

It's probably changed a lot since I lived there. But my experiences would never make me want to live back there again.
 
Just a grim thread. Not sure why people think it's acceptable to make such sweeping generalisations about scousers in particular
I don’t mean scousers in general, just anything and anyone affiliated with their horrible football club. Probably start with Gerrard and McManaman and go from there.
 
We'

We'll have to beg to differ on that one. I live in Barnsley and even here you don't have to pay for your fuel in advance at a petrol station!! Although I like Barnsley and it's people. I don't feel their ulterior motive is to rob or scam me.
Do you keep your “coyal int’ bath”?

Liverpool is a fucking hole. The centre isn’t bad (at least in comparison with Sheffield) but the outlining areas are shite.
 
Scouser cops for a prostitue. “Do you want a blowjob?” she asks. “Will it affect me dole money?” replies the Scouser.
Unemployed Scouser goes for a job interview. Interviewer asks “What would you need to paint an 80 foot chimney?”. Scouser replies “An 80 foot brush”.
Liverpool, there’s that many boarded up windows the window cleaner uses a sander.
De do dat don’t de dooo.
 
I like Liverpool as a city, I think they're misunderstood a fair bit, and no I'm not talking about the accent! But Liverpool as a club, they can do one. I can't say I like many of the big clubs though to be honest. I've got far more time for the league one and two clubs than I have most of the premier league.
 

Apparently they've not put any flowers on the memorial at park hotel this year, don't know weather they did at the sty..

Might be some time before they play in the city again..

First time I've known them not do it in my memory.. If true!
