Out of interest have the dippers been charged with 7 of their players surrounding the ref trying to get Rodri sent off or have the premier league decided it wasn’t their fault?
There was a similar urban rumour knocking about years ago about why Newton Heath had its postcode changed from M10.
That and also people not being able to get car insurance with that postcode
Ok tongue in cheek time again.Yeah was a nice moment for both him & us in the gods.
Don’t be daft. Nobody else noticed that, it didn’t happen. ;-)Out of interest have the dippers been charged with 7 of their players surrounding the ref trying to get Rodri sent off or have the premier league decided it wasn’t their fault?
Seen the exact opposite effect of that.I remember another time my mates parents house had been robbed and he was in when the police came to investigate. After chatting to him for a bit the copper realised they weren't lowlife and said he couldn't understand why decent people like them lived there. Obviously my mate said they couldn't afford to move. He then went on to name about four neighbours who were all known criminals, adding, "You're surrounded by them here mate."

Dated a girl who felt safe as houses where she lived because 2 of the local thugs lived on her street, and most people were unsure exactly which houses they lived in, so avoided it
I remember loads of us having to travel out to places like Wilmslow Job Centre, Didsbury, many of those types of places because companies wouldn’t advertise their jobs (even though they were in Wythenshawe) in the actual Wythenshawe JC, fuckin scandalous!Oh yes that's how it was back then and not even just football fans. I grew up in Wythenshawe and such was it's reputation many firms just threw job applications with a Wythenshawe address on it straight into the bin.
I don't think anyone has noticed anyone doing that since the ref booked Dias(?) have they? So much for demanding respect for the refs.Don’t be daft. Nobody else noticed that, it didn’t happen. ;-)
I would expect that was true. About 25 years ago our postcode area up here was enlarged. We live in a respectable village out in the sticks but the postcode number changed to the same as a rather 'rough' estate 5 miles away. That year our House Insurance premium almost doubled. When I rang the insurance company they confirmed that it was due to the postcode area. When I told them what had happened they reduced the premium considerably, but for quite a few years afterward I had to go through the same process at renewal time.There was a similar urban rumour knocking about years ago about why Newton Heath had its postcode changed from M10.
