Reasons to hate Nottingham

Recommended Posts

Posted

I drove over to see the Wedding Present play in the Rescue Rooms yesterday. What got me originally was that the place was full of overweight, balding, middle aged men. Then I realised I am one. Then what got me was the stupidly small venue leaving only three people able to see anything.

Absolutely f-ing stupid.

So...

I hate Nottingham because:

  1. The Rescue Rooms
  2. Crap town centre being repaired forever
  3. Trams that don't go anywhere decent...just Hucknal from appearances!
  4. ...

Knock yourselves out! ;)

I like the Rescue Rooms :(

And you're right to do so, it is far nicer than any venue in Leicester by a mile.

Comparing it to the Academy in Brum isn't fair so I won't ... but it was obvious that it wasn't designed for the amount of people their last night. My brother says that he's been to other events and it was nice, but substancially smaller crowds.

I felt I was being treated like a sheep last night, a sheep that had parted with enough money to have deserved better. And them's the worst kinda sheep :angry:

was in the old days of heated football rivalry between our clubs and forest fans took great pleasure in such jolly japes; think it was about 1970

Yeah, I like The Rescue Rooms (apart from the fact you have to hike to the next town to take a leak). Have seen some cracking gigs there. Wish we had a similar venue that attracts the type of bands TRR does. I think they have a wider rosta than The Charlotte.

I should also hate Nottingham - and I do, with a passion - but I walked through Leicester city centre today and it's not much better. In fact it is starting to get so run down I think the Council should knock it down and start again. I could go on a rant here but I'll cut to the chase, it's a shit hole. If you want my reasons I'll be happy to offer them....

Throwing fans into the river/sea sounds a much more pleasurable way of fighting than the forms currently used by 'ooligans.

If it could be re-introduced along with whoopee cushions and the custard guns from Bugsy Malone it would make damn find pre-match entertainment!

jousting and archery perhaps ala robin hood ; with each club having its own champion to do battle with the opponents pre match.......yes i like that!!

Oooh, sounds a bit violent that one. Not sure you'll get it passed the League H&S officers.

Maybe if you replaced 'jousting' with 'tickling competition' and 'archery' with 'vol-au-vent eating'? That could work. I mean, who doesn't like to see a Guinness record attempt on vol-au-vent eating? Especially if they have a nice prawn cocktail filling. :thumbup:
