Can't take Brighton City Centre seriously when it doesn't even have a proper department store FFS. Just a poxy little Debenhams.

 

Not to mention it's full of dope fuelled hippies thinking it's 1968, has little nightlife and is a clusterfuck of little lanes full of shit shops.

 

 

I take it you just completely ignored the lanes, the pavilion and the coastline when you were in and around Brighton then? :lol:

 

Have you actually been there?

 

The lanes are full of moody jewellry shops, the beach is a pebble beach meaning those in the NE are far better and the Pavillion is somewhere you'd only ever visit once, at most :lol:.

 

If that's the best you can do then it says everything tbqh.

 

A city centre needs to be functional and the lack of a proper department store renders Brighton second rate.

Cambridge as a whole is really pleasant, Oxford university campus is beautiful but the city itself is grim.

 

Not sure about Leeds or Manchester, never been impressed with either. Exeter's quite pleasant re: southern cities.

 

Oxford University doesn't have a "campus."

 

Even Matt Ritchie could tell you that.

Why would you travel to Brighton to go to a department store ffs. This is the sort of daft attitude my mam used to have when we went on holiday. In the middle of a beautiful market and she'd be scoping out the city for a Marksies, it's pointless, why are you even on holiday and what are you on holiday from? :lol:

Don't think anyone goes on holiday to get away from Marksies mind.

Who said anything about 'travelling' to Brighton to go to a department store? You envisaging someone packing a suitcase in the forlorn hope of finding a Johnny Lewis in Brighton? :lol:

 

The whole point of city centres having department stores is that local people can get loads of stuff under one roof. Otherwise they wouldn't have existed for yonks. They're basically the shopping equivalent of a city centre fulcrum.

 

Can you imagine Newcastle without Fenwicks or John Lewis? They're a massive draw to people and a big reason many choose to shop in the city rather than locally or at out of town retail parks.

 

Anyway, Matt Ritchie, great buy..........think he's going to tear up pre-season and get us off to a flyer. Then go home and make a list of stuff he needs to buy at the local department store with his missus the following day.

What about Oxford and Cambridge? Never been but assumed they'd be nice given the universities.

Oxford has one of the roughest and most notorious council estates in England - Blackbird Leys - Scene of twocking and rioting same time as the west end of Newcastle and Meadow well went up.
