Mates daughter went to uni in Liverpool, finished earlier this year. She absolutely loved it.
That's when i worked there. No problems at all.It was a bad place to go if you were a manc in the 70's
Vend në bashkëshort , your quiet right there.Liverpool is the biggest village in the world, everybody knows each other (or are related to each other), and they stick together at all costs. Other tough places in UK are Belfast, Glasgow and Newcastle.
As others have said, the Scousers and Salford lads get on well in jail. There's common ground as most come from several generations of crime, it's all they know.
Muslims stick together in jail and the wealthy drug dealers do have a large say but this is evened out and then some by the Scousers and Irish gypsies.
Nobody will ever take Liverpool, it is a very insular place where even other Brits from different areas will never be fully accepted. I have Albanian family in that city and they are run of the mill working people there.
London is Albanian, our government and police are too stupid to manage it, and even if they brought Albanians on board for the language barrier, similarly to the Scousers, they'd never rat on their own people.
As another poster said, they can be a very ruthless breed and it tends to run in the blood, the men are usually drawn towards serious crime and money, but they are a lot less flashy than other groups, and go under the radar better. Lovely family men but you cross them once and you won't be seen again.
A poster mentioned Albania being a Muslim country. We have distant family members who claim to be Muslim but celebrate Christmas and Easter, drink, smoke and eat pork every day. They wouldn't know what Eid was if you told them. It tends to be Kosovan Albanians or Northern Albanians who are Muslim, village people who probably think Turkey still owns them.
It's safer over there than it is here, all their shit has moved into UK, Germany or Switzerland where they can infiltrate and make hard cash to invest back at home. Very friendly and cheap over there but you won't be taken seriously unless you speak a bit of the lingo.

Tried taking over the coke trade in Radcliffe via a pub they ran. Didn't go very well for them and the pub is now flatsHas Salford been taken over by Albanian criminal gangs? Or anywhere else in Manchester?

Bet they had a job deciding who was gonna nick the flag.
Sounds great

Just to add my little bit. My dad a, a million years ago, was a spark. One day six of them were shifted from a building site in manc to liverpool. On arrival the site went on total strike because they were using ‘foreign workers’. Foreign! It never happened and back to manc they went
My dad said that all the scousers were totally sound, it was nothing personal and they were just looking after their own.
They are a , in a way, a different breed . Often in a bad way, often in a good way. We have to remember to separate liverpool fc supporting scousers from your everyday one.
We say that everton supporters are fine, well back in the 80s they were the bigger cunts, racist too!
Coming out of the OT derby last week and getting caught up in a bit of mither that shook my 8 year old son up a but , he said after “dad are a lot of football fans idiots?”
And thats the issue. At a match, a lot of people turn into idiots but are decent people at home.
See that for scousers. On the whole they are fine. Liverpool fc supporters are odd as fuck, but as every day people they are just … normal, ish. And some of their insular traits should be admired
Insular, very insular, but normal
My lad has just finished at Liverpool University and he loved it. He wears his City shirt when running and at the gym. He gets no mither from the lads in the gym just the normal football "bantz".In retrospect this perhaps wasn't the best thread to read through having recently booked to take my eldest daughter for a look around Liverpool Uni at one of their open events in a couple of weeks time....
