newfgreen   10 #25 Posted April 7, 2007 whether you think leeds is better or not than sheffield really isnt relavent.  So why are you both arguing about it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
firecracker   10 #26 Posted April 7, 2007 the truth... you have proof to back this up then i take it?  never once in my post did i put down any other surrounding town. i also think its rather hypocritical of you to complain about such things when you are doing this yourself. As far as i was aware this thread was to do with clubbing or rather a club, in sheffield (since this is the sheffield forum). it has got sod all to do with leeds, whether you think leeds is better or not than sheffield really isnt relavent. Maybe not you, but I have had more than an eyeful of Sheffielders arrogantly putting down neighbouring towns and often describing Barnsley folks as dingles, when there's precious little to say for their own city, which itself is a 3x bigger version of Barnsley, and not a patch on Leeds.  How about looking on this thread for starters, or do a search for dingles..

andy_honez   10 #28 Posted April 7, 2007 hey, im new to this but have read sum ppl takin a swing at sheffield, particularly someone referrin to leeds as being far superior as it has twice the bars restaurants n clubs, all i can say is quality not quantity mate, i have been to leeds on numerous occasions and could have even gone to uni there but chose to live in sheffield for the next 5 yrs as it has a much more welcoming and exciting atmosphere. you have to remember sheffield is still an up n coming city improving week after week with new developments and refurbishments and I'm afraid to tell you that in a few years no english city will even compare x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Ha3el   10 #30 Posted April 7, 2007 So why are you both arguing about it?  did u even actually read my posts before commenting?  i am not arguing about which is the better city, jus merely pointing out there is no need to slag off sheffield like this. i even said the argument bout sheffield/leeds was not relavent to thread and therefore not necessary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

X666 FJP   10 #32 Posted April 8, 2007 Leeds is a yardstick to compare with. Now if Sheffield were like Leeds - wealth-wise at least - it would have far better bars, far better shops, and an economy which generates almost £15 billion annually. And it is no use asking folks who compare Sheffield to Leeds to live there (they might actually do it for starters) - it doesn't improve Sheffield's lot one bit, unless you're happy with mediocrity and living in the shadows of Leeds.  Here here!

X666 FJP Â Â 10 #33 Posted April 8, 2007 By that comment i'm not jumping on the Sheffield is better than Leeds bandwaggon. I love Sheffield, i've lived here all my life and wouldn't really want to live anywhere else but is is frustrating to see Leeds in such a class above shopping, clubs, facilities etc..wise when Sheffield should be just as good if not better.

discodown   11 #34 Posted April 8, 2007 you have to remember that leeds is awash with money. people are paid better, there are more jobs for young professionals, its basically the financial centre of the north. sheffield is catching up but its basically a different kind of city.  sheffield is as well to all intents and purposes seasonal. due to the uni's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
