Quite a few bona fide ones too, probably more than you realise.

I think the nightlife starts later on in the evening. Last time I was in Rotherham I stayed at a mates and his young daughter and her mate didn't go down town until almost midnight and got back around 6:00am. They said the bars were heaving. Times have changed in both senses of the word I suppose.
Wickersley is obviously better than the town centre but you're getting two many chav types there as well now.
The rapidly changing demographics of Rotherham, there are bound to be changes and traditional things lost.
Only go through town on matchdays, full of down n outs, scrubbers and horrible immigrants(probably illegal most of em) it makes me sad to say it and see it, so i keep away. :(
Bring back the Dickens.
Rotherham town centre is shocking for a night out and I'll be surprised if there's any clubs going in 5 years time. Its the same in many areas such as Rawmarsh and Swinton, which were both great days out most weekends but now are shocking. Wickersley has it's element of big time Charlie's but is probably the best night out sadley. I like the Three Horseshoes up there as it's a bit more down to earth.
Pains me to say it but Rotherham Town Centre is horrible, full stop.
I rarely go in nowadays TBH but when I do feel alienated in my home town and can't wait to get out which is a great shame
