| Very Happy to be Born and Bred in Warrington..
And i love living in the Town,i'd certainly rather live in a town than a big city...
I always find the people who moan about where they live have usually never been far...

| I'd love to see where Warrington would figure on a 'Family Fortunes' type survey - 'name a famous rugby league club'...
You said 'Warrington'.
Our survey said...

| One of my earliest experiences of 'Wire on tour' was in 2003 at Caracus Airport. I had that season's home jersey on (similar to this years away one, remember?) and heard a very unfamiliar, somewhat amusing, accent (that I could only place somewhere south of Kent and north of Brighton) say to me "excuse me, me and my mate were looking at your shirt and we wondered who it was". Before I had chance to answer, he stared intently at the badge and said "Warrington Wolves? Who are they, like a local team or something?"
I wasn't as quick witted back then as I am now, so just replied "No. Rugby League". He almost seemed disappointed to here my response and meekly said "Oh, Rugby [iLeague[/i" and walked off.

Monitoring outside for the people inside: |
|
| I was talking to a builder from Wigan who always had the impression that Warrington was quite posh, until he got a job with the council and had to travel around some of the more earthy districts. That was an eye opener.
As someone who has lived here all my life, I don't see any difference from other towns. There are rough parts and very expensive parts. I do know that there are far better amenities in much smaller and poorer towns. That actually have a cinema in the town centre, a fun pool or a skating rink, somewhere for families to go after hours etc.

| When I was in Cyprus a couple of years ago, I went into a pub with my shirt on and it was instantly recognised by the Cypriot owner.
Apparently he was an ardent follower of the Super League and a big Warrington fan to boot.

A fella from Bury I was speaking to once had the impression that Warrington was posh. I literally laughed out loud at his exact wordsVery[/i posh".
Quote: TF and the wire "As someone who has lived here all my life, I don't see any difference from other towns. There are rough parts and very expensive parts.

That was another point I was going to make. What seperates us as a township and its people from other flag waving, chest beating, good old fashioned towns up and down this country?

No i'm not joking. It's only been a few people, the majority know where it is.
As for Warrington, personally i love living here.

| I love living here too.
Northampton is a fast decaying hole of a town with a backwards council that doesnt give a......
Here, the town centre is a nice place to go shopping, the Goldon Square is fantastic in comparison to what northampton has to offer. As much as I love Northampton, it was my home for the first 18 years of my life, I really like living in Warrington and would never want to move back to Northampton. In comparison, Warrington is brill!
Oh and then the team is that bit more succesful up here! Well, the Cobblers arent in the Premiership are they!
