Inbred towns

I think the problem they have is, you'd only go there if you were going there, it's not on a route to anywhere, I still drink with a few of the bootle lads.

Bootle dropped out of our league quite a few years before i finished playing, so we were left with Millom, Crooklands, Milnthorpe and Barrow. Bootle was always the furthest trip of the season though.

Is that west lance league by any chance!

It was yes, i played for a team called Springfields, now called BAE/Springfields. I packed in about 3 years ago though.

Yeah it was a decent league. It was just the 6 or 7 trips to Cumbria every season that did my head in. Also places like Barnoldswick and Todmordon.

i dont live far from Hadfield hahaha, i might know him, its where The League of Gentlemen was recorded, its a local town for local people, lots of blues there though

The League of Gentlemen was filmed in Hadfield. There are a number of landmarks in Hadfield that an aficionado of the programme would recognise and Hadfield is shown as the location in the programme and DVD credits.

I'm not going to argue with local knowledge Shady! It's interesting though that Padfield doesn't seem to get any location credits anywhere. The LOG's Wiki entry says that apart from Hadfield some filming was done in Glossop, Gamesley, Marsden, Mottram, Hope Valley and Todmorden. (The local shop was in Marsden near Huddersfield).

[mawdesleytractor]

Mawdesley, Lancashire. A tiny, obscure, snobbish commuter enclave dumped on flat, featureless, stinking cabbage fields in the arse end of Lancashire. Everyone that lives there has the same surname as the village i.e. Mawdesley - and is related and married to other people called Mawdesley, also from Mawdesley. Doesn't get more inbred.

Now we're talking... I've spent the last 12 months living in a small village in North Wales and it really does make places like Mossley or Bacup look hip and sophisticated and full of enlightened intellectuals.

 

[johnny on the spot]

You've got to love the way that Mossley 'Comer-inners' are trying to gentrify the place as a bustling commuter hub and artisan village. It even has a wine bar now. Thank god for the regular strain of drug-fuelled herberts who keep Mossley real.
