Quoted from Civvy at last


Bet he couldn't p1ss 23 feet like mine  


Mine once p1ssed on 23 feet. In the Barratt Stand at the crush barrier half way up. The 12th bloke was a bit quicker on the uptake than the other 11.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

That's the point. You ARE a Uni town, you HAVE the cradle of democracy linked to the Cathedral, people from round the WORLD travel to see this.  
That castle and Cathedral belongs to the people of Grimsby, Scunny and anywhere else you care to name as much as it belongs to YOU, you realise that? It's not YOURS in the sense that Sincil Bank is.
i don't suggest you are struggling in this area, but as a town it's bang average, with average shopping amenities for a tourist town that is blessed with all the above I mentioned.
You have drunks, criminals and druggies scattered everywhere, along with very poor estate areas; that you lot choose to pretend it's not there and simply point at the Cathedral says it all about most people there.



All fair points but GY beats Lincoln hands down for drunks,criminals,druggies and poor estate area`s we also have more dog poo than them

As I posted before, vitals isn't the only forum. It may be the oldest but there is another far busier one on Facebook with over 13k members. Not saying it's better than vitals, but it certainly doesn't have those annoying pop ups which I agree is a pain in the bottom sometimes. The Facebook one certainly does seem to have younger posters, not always a good thing though.


Can you send us the link please some of us enjoy the banter. Vitals you say GY in peace and get banned by that odious turd Jules.

Worked in Lincoln a couple of years back for a few months , I'd say their drunks Crims druggies and poor estates more than match up to ours however we're streets ahead in the dog poo stakes

That's the common perception, but there's been LOTS of social problems in Lincoln in recent years.  The Spice 'zombie' thing has been shocking and has had widespread media coverage.

Not sure you will find the FB Banter page any better TBH, there are some more mature posters about and it is very busy, but it is still full of kids. Think you still need to be accepted in via invite like on here because a lot of people get/got banned.

I think you may be confusing matters. Lincoln turned Red in the General election in June after seven years of a Tory M.P. The Parliamentary constituency includes bits not covered by the actual city primarily Tory voting villages. The city council has been Labour for most if not all of my lifetime. The County Council is Tory because the number of villages and small towns controlled by landed gentry far outweigh the city itself.
No need to thank me...happy to help...


The local council are only there to pick up the rubbish and collect the council tax, it's the Tory county council that make the big decisions that effect Lincoln.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Promise a man someone else's fish and he votes Labour.

You mean like the decision to transform their public transport infrastructure?


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

George Osborne Comprehensive Spending Review of Oct 2010 slashed Local Government Budgets by 28% over 4 years which led to crippling cuts since 2010 successive Central Government Cuts has devastated the ability of Local Councils to provide services,park the blame where it belongs.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.
