What a load of old shit, life is harder bollox, soft southern softies bollox, and as for fantastic place to live pah your having a laugh yourself aint ya, what you doing down here if it is so great ? I worked in Kirkby for several years and boy what a shit hole, and the sense of humour was no where to be found. It is a large city with large problems and with not much more going for it other than the football teams. Everytime I went to Liverpool for a night out their were always people looking for a fight either because I came from down south or I was with people from Manchester, tolerant my arse.

His is a wind-up account.

Strange. I lived there for 4 years, went out in town 3 or 4 nights a week, and nobody ever once tried to fight me. Perhaps it was just you!

Loads of scouse comedians have already been listed, so what more do you want?

Well, the phrase is "great scouse humour" therefore you would expect, say, of any list of top 25 british comics that at least 5-7 would be scouse. From the options we've been given, that looks VERY unlikely.

When we played up there in the cup 1990/91 season I saw a famous Albion face (dark hair, hunched back) being chased out of a hotel by a bloke armed with a baseball bat.

mine was nothing to do with football. It was in my local, (the Bell Inn, in Aigburth) where this local crackhead was hassling one of my missus' college mates. She was pretty pissed, and not doing a very good job of sending him packing, so I politely asked him to leave her alone. So he got all agitated and pulled a gun on me. As you do.

Over the years the Scousers have persuaded themselves that they are God's gift to quick-wittedness.
They try and outdo each other, like kids in a playground. Sometimes it is amusing. More often than not it is childish and tedious.

Ah another one. Chedious.

Did you threaten to ban him ?

No. I came close to shitting myself, and left as quickly as I could. Why, what would you have done?

Fortunately, the sight of the gun sobered the lass up pretty quickly, too.

Never had trouble with scousers.
Dim attempt in this thread to pigeon hole an entire city & its people, as if the rest of the British Isles doesn't contain grime.

But as we all know, even our beloved Brighton has produced some real scum.


No doubt if we beat Wrexham, the usual suspects on here, will slag off geordies & try and stir it.

Quite a small bloke, and with a slightly deformed hand? If its who I think it is, I remember once at Bradford, probably 87-88, he wanted to fight the Ointment on his own! Nutter!!

Loads of scouse comedians have already been listed, so what more do you want? Granted, they are not your type but anyone who goes there can't fail to be impressed and amused by the standard of witty banter you hear on the streets from everyday people. Life is and always has been much harder for people in Liverpool than some of you softies in your home counties like Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire and the smile and wit of people in Liverpool is what makes it such a fantastic place. Well, that and LFC obviously.

My favourite scouse comedian is Dan Gosling but that's cos he's crap! :lolol: :lolol: :lolol:
I've said it before and have no problem saying it again, i've always found scousers to be top people , friendly etc with a great sense of humour.
