Chesterfield clocks in at a respectable 14th place, which I'm sure we can all take pride in. With Mansfield not even ranking in the top 50, you do have to wonder - are you even trying Mansfield?

Where does your home rank?

 

[ArmchairDiehard]

More than 20% of the top 50 are in the North East


All of them probably within half an hour of my house

 

[Pagnell]

St. Helens worse than Liverpool. I love that.

 

[Veggie Legs]

4th for Norwich, I'm a bit surprised it's that high.

 

[Pagnell]

Perhaps getting pissed takes their minds off how much they fancy their brothers and sisters.

 

[Hank]

35 - County Durham, I do live quite close to a few of them though.

 

[mowgli]

My front room should be on that list

 

[Bobbin']

All northern shitholes.

Glad my taxes are being spent well.

 

[blade1889]

Sheffield doesn't feature *pats self on back* and surprised Manchester is as high as 18th.

 

[Munkiki]

4th for Norwich, I'm a bit surprised it's that high.

you been down Prince of Wales Road? a stain on this fine city.

I walk down Prince of Wales Road regularly, including at night, it's never seemed that bad to me. Haven't been there at 2am on a Saturday night though.

 

[Dr Mantis Toboggan]

so northerners can't handle their booze is what this study seems to confirm. northern faeries

 

[Van Der Graaf]

Nottingham being 8th is no great surprise at all.

 

[Dr Mantis Toboggan]

great city notts <3

 

[markpvfc]

I'd like to say I'm surprised that Stoke is second on the list.

But I'd be lying.

 

[Craig]

They all sound like horrid places.

 

[The Alex]

Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme being 2 and 12 doesn't surprise me. I've had enough incidents myself here.

 

[Abertawe]

And Blackpool tops the list thanks to Stokies going on the piss.

 

[Pagnell]

I was at Blackpool this weekend, although not on the piss. What a fucking shit hole that place is.

 

[The Alex]

Blackpool is truly the most grim place I have ever been to. Vile.

 

[Camborne Gills]

Not surprised Torbay made it, how come Newquay didn't? , and Plymouth for that matter.

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

Islington looks like it's the only entry from the whole of the South East. Obviously knocking back the champers with a bit too much enthusiasm

 

[White Army]

By Wirral, it means Birkenhead. Everywhere else is lovely.

I live in Islington and would like to remind you that Holloway falls within its borders...

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

A very apposite point! Although unfortunately, the reality - that Islington contains areas of considerable deprivation - doesn't fit with the stereotype too well. Think I'm secretly rather jealous that the rest of us are insufficiently good at pickling ourselves that we can't even manage to wind up in A&E on a regular basis. Pretty poor form.

 

[Christian Slater]

Top of the league.

The reality is people come from all over the country to Blackpool to get pissed, it's the nation's sick bucket. It's usually the southerners that you find too legless to stand. Soft arses.

 

[RavenBish]

8th place. Just outside the play-offs.

We go again next year.

So the fact that the vast majority of places are up North doesn't mean you lot are a bunch of two pot screamers?

 

[Pliny Harris]

Ctrl+F Halifax no results.

75p drinks at the Acapulco before 11pm and we're still not one of the bad guys.

 

[Dave-Vale]

2nd.

I was going to blame this on the fact we have 2 universities in the area then realised that Newcastle-Under-Lyme is also on the list.
