    Everyone in the Outer Hebrides seems to think Stornoway is a dump. Except, I assume, the people who live there..

    A lot of people would say Burnley and Wigan are horrible towns, have got some fantastic boozers and makes for a cracking day out.

    Thamesmead, Gravesend, Harlow, Luton, Leicester, parts of Birmingham,
    There is no such town called Port Vale. It is in Stoke. My wife's Family are from Stoke so I dare not include it. I extended the criteria to include cities as well as towns.

    Ipswich is a wonderful old town. It's the influx of asylum seekers and low-born scum that has brought about its recent decline - much like many of this country's historic settlements. :headbang:

    Around Portman road is a **** hole. More the hookers that parade it - rotters.

    I like Aberdeen, but hard to argue how depressing it looks when the weather is poor!

    Ayr depressed me.

    I wouldn't know about that. :bandit:

    'New towns' such as Harlow, Basildon and Milton Keynes are depressingly concrete in design and structure. Yuck!

    Getting back to football related towns ....Dagenham & Redbridge wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing of places

    Possibly because you have to travel through the East End of London on the District Line to reach it.

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the Medway, Rochester is okay but has it's dodgy parts, but Chatham and Gillingham are dangerous.

    Yeovil is dreadful, so bland and lifeless.

    Been there on holiday yonks ago, I found it quite a nice place (to visit).
    Certainly a welcome sight after the ferry was caught in a storm. I was heave-hoing for hours, but as soon as I was on dry land again a ravenous hunger for cafe grub possessed me and I made straight for the nearest greasy spoon.

    Beautifully bleak wild country around there. One day I might retire to somewhere truly remote like that.
