Aberdeen's pretty ****, it's just grey!! Spent a night there years ago, so depressing, no wonder the Jocks get pissed all the time.
Worst city in the UK?

No, that's fine. Quite pretty really. I remember the old station. I'm presuming it's changed inside too!!
Happy haircut for later.
The inside's been done too, it's really quite impressive and we have a new shopping centre, hotel and theatre next door(I'll spare you the pictures).
Thanks for the haircut comment, I'm thinking of going mohawk this time, I think it can be a flattering look on overweight 47 year olds.

Go for a Bieber cut???
Hey try Wick in Caithness,now that is drab depression(ok town i know),so i`ll vote for Bradford/Luton
When you arrive somewhere by train you're not greeted by the main entrance. Leeds Station is one of the best I've been in and the art deco concourse is fantastic.
Hey Clowntime,people actually use it,hence it`s utilitarian appearance,who arrives at Hull,many depart for good
Can't say I hate any specific city, they all have their own personal charm. To me it's the people that make the city, so from my travels around the UK, I have to say I was rather miserable when I needed to stay in Sunderland a few years ago.
NOW HOLD ON THERE PHIL!!!!!
If they flatten Bradford, where would Jeremy Kyle get his punters from, he'd have no show

You forgot to mention that Leeds station still looks pretty impressive from the front relatively speaking, and that front is at least 20 years old.
If We're going by the people Glasgow is pretty bad. My first and ever lasting memory of the city was of a drunk harassing my dad outside Queens Street Train Station, telling him 'To take good care of him' referring to me

Welcome!
Am I right in surmising that you're from Wolver'ampton? A place which doesn't have a great reputation itself...
How much of Hull overall is omitted then from these data?
Because in the instance you use of North (West)/South (East) Leeds, they both make up around 50% of the city. Is the neglected bit of West Hull really that significant?

Went to Uni in Wolverhampton originally from Wakefield. Living back in Wakey it's based on my old 606 name WolvoWhite but this site wouldn't let me have it.
Wolves is pretty bad some god awful building and the rioting didn't really give it a boost in it's rep but the people are unbelievably friendly. There's the charm in a dire hole. No city has scared me like that nice Saturday evening in Glasgow
I thought Hull only existed so that the good people of Leeds had somewhere to send our **** to when we flush? Also it served as a good diversion during WW2 when it got flattened by the bombs meant for the barnbeau munitions factory in Leeds so thanks for that guys
Aberdeen is a drab, grey, rainy ****hole of a place. It's supposed to be the 3rd biggest city in Scotland but instead of a city centre it more has 3 shopping centres connected by 1 street with shops.
:shudder: There's a joke up here, what has one i (sounds like "eye" for the joke) and smells of piss?
I'm not from Glasgow, but I am from Scotland and feel I need to defend Glasgow. Like many working class industrial cities, Glasgow has a charm which many people love and others hate. The city itself has won many awards for it's architecture and as far as I know it has the largest amount of parks within a city boundary throughout the whole of Europe. Most of the top commercial companies have bases in Glasgow and it has the third largest commercial shopping area in the UK. The city is really a city for its people, to be born in Glasgow means that you have Mother Glasgow protecting you for the rest of your life, you can take the person out of Glasgow, but you can never take Glasgow out of the person. Like many parts of the UK, Glasgow has problems with alcohol, especially with the 18 - 23 age group, that said I have traveled to many cities throughout the UK and I've never thought Glasgow was any worse or better than any other city, I've seen more people drunk and more threatening in Manchester (a city I like) than in Glasgow. The Scottish Government are fully aware of the issue Scotland has with alcohol and they appear to be getting their act together to get things sorted. Glasgow is known as a friendly city, with it's people being very proud of their home and often displaying the well known Glaswegian humour. Glasgow is very similar to Liverpool and Belfast in that it's people have similar personalities and enjoy the same type of humour, probably due to the shipping industry that they are all famous for.
Arrived at Hull station once on a Saturday night - like Beirut!!!!! Never seen anything worse, and I'm a Glaswegian! If I wouldn't have been been charged with being AWOL, I'd have turned round and got the first train out of there. Middlesbrough's a close second, for sheer wall-to-wall chavviness...
