I am working for a couple of days in Crawley and have just gone over to the PCWorld off Manor thing...and apart from a mate who I used to stand with at the Goldstane and Gillingham ( and I see him occasionally at Withers) I can honestly say I have never seen so may pikeys and low life.

Crawley makes Dagenham look like Kensington and Chelsea.

GET ME OUT OF HERE:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

I have to work here week in week out and the place is horrible.

Ther emay be a reasonable brighton fanbase but the majority of football fans in crawley are palace and chelsea.

Not at my school there wasn't. Mostly Palace. Only recall one other Albion fan in my entire year.

Yeah, admittedly quite a bit of it isn't great, and some parts are just plain horrible, but I can assure you that not all of the population are pikeys!

I've worked in Crawley, East Grinstead and Horsham in my time and to be honest I'd take Crawley everytime.
Horsham is a bizarre inbred place. The people I worked with in EG spent their time slagging off Crawley, yet their town is a horrible soulless commuter desert.

Yes Crawley has it's fair share of plebs. It's always good for a game of spot the underage single mum. Discount leisure wear is very popular and a trip to Queens square will always reward you with a sighting of a fat Granny in tight leggings.
But it's not up itself, it isn't snobbish and to be honest it's worst bits are no different to moulscomb or whitehawk.

Why in a Million years WOULD Crawley be snobbish how could Crawley be snobbish, best thing to do is move it 3 miles north and call it Horley and get it out of GOSBTHS

For those of you that don't know Crawley is divided into area's. They were originally designed to be self contained areas with their own parade of shops, pubs, schools churchs etc.

In general the east of the town is nicest. The worst areas are Bewbush and Broadfield which are pretty much sink estates and rather horrid.

Langley Green, known as Langleydesh to locals has a high population of asian residents ands in general is a reasonable working class suburban estate.
