Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 14 March 2006 Share Posted 14 March 2006 Unwelcoming, hostile, intimidating, dirty and downright shitty.. are but a few words I can think to describe Luton. After being followed round town by a few so called 'Luton' fans, only for the boys (and girls) in blue to come to our aide, the pubs are rough, the people are hostile towards you...all because you wear a different shirt and follow a different team...What has the world come too? Any thoughts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts... I had a mate that studied at Luton Uni, and I have been out a couple of time in Luton, it is abit of a dump but the night life wasn't so bad but to be honest there weren't much of one, plus take away food is well good value, especially kebabs and indian!! We also found some of the pubs abit hostile!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Honcho Posted 14 March 2006 Share Posted 14 March 2006 Also says Baths a crap town then . SURE IT IS! Yeh it's a bit of a crap list. If you ask me Edinburgh and Glasgow are 2 of the best places around and I visit Bath regularly. I suppose it depends on who you ask. If you ask the folks off the council estates then I can see why these 3 places are in the top 10 because some parts are pretty grim, but if you ask the student then these 3 places wouldn't hit the top 30!

A lot will depend on the ref- the place is intimidating but less so than the old den possibly because it is one of those grounds that is open at the corners (between the seating blocks)- we never do well there and I am not expecting a footy-fest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clapham's on there too despite the fact you couldn't buy a 3 bed semi there for less than 800k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clapham's on there too despite the fact you couldn't buy a 3 bed semi there for less than 800k Clapaham is also really trendy and gernally considered oen of the nicest areas in South London. No idea why it is up there. Windsor on the other hand would be a terrible place to live. Full of old people and a whole eocnomy based around tourists coming to look at a bloody castle.

The New Den ain't that bad! A good start by us and as always the home fans will be slagging their own players off! Be just like being down The Walkers really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a list of crap towns, guess who's top? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3692154.stm Had the misfortune to work in Luton for 18 months up until end of last season. Words cannot describe what a hole the town is. Also I know a couple of hatters supporters and they came up for the game at the Walkers in August - they were amazed at our stadium, even more amazed at the result they got. Glad we beat em the other weekend tho I was able to win all my money back of the tight b@st@ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
