Another Leeds-based Mariner here.

Yes, it's Yorkshire. Dirty Leeds. But if I'm being brutally honest, it's a great place to live.

I can get back to Grimsby, watch the Mariners, see my parents etc by joining the M62. Back within 90 mins easy. City centre is awash with pubs, bars and restaurants. All pretty affordable. The city has had superb investment in my opinion.

Great location - can get to York, Sheffield & Manchester no bother. Dales on your doorstep. Peak District within easy reach too.

Seems there are plenty of Town fans in and around Leeds. Never found the time to understand just how many of us live in the city!

Plenty of town fans in/near Leeds - I’m Cas/5-Towns way myself but know of quite a few others.

Should get a WY Mariners group going.

The only drawback being it's full of Yorkies.

Cas-Vegas! Used to work there. Know the area well.

Always admired how everyone in the town goes to the rugby. Population can't be more than Cleethorpes yet the entire town stops when Cas Tigers play.

I try to live everyday.  

I don't live in Leeds but I agree it's a great place for a day/night out. City Zap bus between Leeds and York comes in handy too.

Still not too late to access conversion therapy.
