Wouldn't really describe Louth and North Thoresby as nice areas  . Pretty much shitholes these days. Even Caistor is nicer than these areas. West of Grimsby and south of Scunthorpe is where you want to go. Anything south of Grimsby up to Skegness is just gross.

Bit more south but okay. Still nicer than Louth and North Thoresby. Maybe 25 years ago they could have been described as nice areas but still remember thinking Louth was a bit creepy and inbred even back then. Now they are just another Humberston,Holton Le Clay or Healing. Once maybe a bit posh but now nothing more than the higher end of working class. Not really places you'd expect pro footballers to settle down with their families. Sorry to people who live there but it's the honest truth. You need to go a bit further out towards Lincoln to find the middle class. Maybe some left in Waltham but even that's become more and more working class when it used to be full of business owners and the local affluent.

I would suggest players settling in the Chichester/Cromwell road area of Cleethorpes if they can afford it, just a short stroll to the beach and usually plenty of things going on in the summer.

What's there not to like, I can think of a lot worse places to live.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Depends on your idea of a nice area, if you want to live somewhere with a nice town centre, good quality housing,  decent schools, lower than average crime, shops not shuttered at night, a very good selection of independent pubs and resturants then Louth fits that bill.

Standout, the daftest post that I have read in months but it made me laugh. A PhD thesis in class definition and inbreeding. Division 2 footballers making up the middle class but at least an apology to the locals utm
