    No-one is asking footballers to live in the Victoria Centre flats. The reason we score low in surveys of cities to live in is the artificially small city boundaries which put Gelding, Rushcliffe, and Broxtowe outside Nottingham. To include Clifton and leave out West Bridgford makes no sense. And West Bridgford is like one of those Cheshire stockbroker belt towns footballers live in these days, full of the pavement cafes, quality shops, and restaurants that the city itself lacks.

    I actually think the club own a luxury apartment or two facing meadow lane main gates in the luxury riverside development that?s quite new.
    Often when we?ve been sat in the car waiting outside clubshop we?ve seen George Abbott and Bedau walk out the apartments and across the road to the ground.
    Aren?t they worth about ?400k each them apartments or did I dream seeing that price somewhere?

    That's B O L L O X

    You all know where I live, I've lived and traveled abroad for the last 30 years and despair, each time I come back. Getting out permanently was the best thing we ever did but, it will always be home.

    The market square that used to be gleaming, hardly seems to get cleaned these days and is covered in chewing gum. There are dozens of empty shops with drunks and junkies in the doorways and the all pervading smell of marijuana in the air.

    I hate Nottingham city centre now, it's so run down and depressing. It's a disgrace.

    It's the absolute pits &, the suburbs. Was back home end of November for the 1st time in a few years & couldn't get over how run down & unmaintained things were. As Bulwell lad born n bred & lived there for 27 yrs, was adamant I would never leave but, I wouldn't move back now anywhere in the suburbs even if you paid me. Everywhere is going down hill, even over here in Ireland & the town i live in.
    It's a fcuking **** hole.
