If this is gonna descend into the "worst name for the terrace" competition, might I suggest "the Omah Kahn terrace"?

I think the Koncrete Terrace is the best so far, it's a play on words but also a serious contender

Any chance of Nick Zisti been in the mix?

If we're going with Bulls legends...

The Michael Worrincy Terrace gets my vote

Does it have to have 'terrace' in the title? What about "The Nick Zisti load of steps"

Red Amber and Black Fantasy Rugby League Champion 2012. By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013 Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know: Mystic Eddie has been right all along! - copyright vbfg 05.01.2017:Others/combustable.gif

The Nick Zisti load of (sideways and backwards) steps.

I'm a fan of the Leave it Terrace, said with a broad enough accent obviously

I kept reading that in my Leeds accent which would be "Lee VIT TERRass" and that doesn't work. In Bradford it would be a softer "terusss". I'm gibbering.

Wow - it's not often that anything in the vernacular Bradford accent sounds "softer", especially after the usual [and in many cases, only] Bradford adjective, where the first syllable is then often stressed [a la Leeds...]. umbrella.gif

Leeds is an extremely clipped version of a Yorkshire accent. Much of the warmth associated with the generic Yorkshire way of speaking is absent. Syllables are shortened and fired out in a very firm way. Hence I say Leave it terrace is a hard staccato Lee VIT TERR-ASS, with an over-emphasis on VIT. When I listen to myself on recordings I cringe.

So to me Bradford is in the more warmer rolling vowels family of Yorkshire accents. The exception that proves the rule is the way you say the name of your own City. I pronounce it very literally Bradford or sometimes Bradfud. You appear to say it with a soft 't' and no 'o' as in Bratfd.

I think today many regional variations are disappearing, to be honest - I guess largely due to dawn til dusk TV and all the video channels! People seem less defined by their accent than previously, except that irritating 'Esstuary' accent which seems to be taking over - even in Bradford! Bradford, btw, I've always pronounced with a clear and strong middle 'd' and no glottal stop, though I confess my 'ford' does come out more like 'fud'.

In my various jobs I've, sort of eschewed the local argot and used English....., largely because I was often dealing with people not from this area and "ey up, ahta goin' on owd lad" wasn't necessarily the best way to address customers [or answer the phone!!] I do lapse amongst family and friends but I guess I sound a bit inbetween the two.

The man should be honoured that I remember him - spelling his name correctly wasn't high on my list of priorities a026.gif


Note to self: must do better.
