In that video are they on the bikes in Manchester or Salford? (Where all the homes are boarded up.)

Salford Lads Club is a boys and girls recreational club located in the Ordsall area of Salford, in Greater Manchester, England. The club was established in 1903 as a boys-only club, but today both boys and girls are welcome. The club organises recreational activities for local youth, including football, snooker, table-tennis, computer games, boxing training, dance, community meetings, exhibitions, kickboxing, excursions and Jujitsu...



It was opened on 30 January 1904 by Robert Baden-Powell, later the founder of the scout movement. Among former members are actor Albert Finney, 1950s footballers, Albert McPherson, Steve Fleet, Eddie Colman and Brian Doyle, Allan Clarke, the lead singer of 1960s pop group the Hollies, and Graham Nash, guitarist, songwriter and singer with the Hollies who went on to form the folk/rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young...

And to all intents and purposes Salford and Manchester are one and the same (just don't tell anyone I said that, it's a rather contentious issue for Salfordians and Mancs!) I lived in Salford for the first 20 years of my life, consider myself a Manc though.

80's Salford.

"the hood" :killinme: I've not heard it called that before. Anyway, it's where they lived, Stretford to be more precise. Morrisey (the singer) was most probably battered on a daily basis.

In America when everything gets boarded up like that it's called the Hood.

England seems so peaceful, if that was the US there would have been Goons on every corner.

Summer of 81

There's blood on the street
And the smell is so sweet
'Cos another blue bastard has gone down
See the boots swarmimg round his head
They're gonna see him dead

Nightstick in his hand
He tried to rule this land
That's no way to make a country great
It takes more, more than force
You've got to give it a voice

So it's goodnight to one more fascist clown
We've got a right, you can't keep us quiet
We've got a riot, we've got a riot

This is our answer to your law!

Don't shed no tears for him
His life was lived in sin
No one has the right to order you
Don't be told what life is about

Brixton riot riot
Toxteth riot riot
Bristol riot riot
Moss Side riot riot

England riot riot

So towards the end of the video on the top of this page they are in Moss Side during the 80's?

Could they still ride bikes in there like that nowadays?

Should i assume all of those homes were torn down long ago?

The roads are chock ablock and stinking,so riding bikes is not advisable around the manchester area etc and make sure you have a big lock...there are lots of places like that in the UK, especially in the poor run down areas,its still got lots of home's from the WW2 era. :eek2:

What do we get for our trouble and pain ?
Just a rented room in Whalley Range
What do we get for our trouble and pain ?
...Whalley Range !
Into the depths of the criminal world
I followed her ...
Whalley Range is an inner-city area of Blackburn in Lancashire. The area is a community with almost all residents being from India or Pakistan. Houses in the area are predominantly terraced and go up on a hill in a typical Pennine mill town style. Whalley Range attracts visitors from all over the UK... and from India and Pakistan and soon to be from the Romanian area...

I dont really go for lists and it also depends who is compiling the lists...

Kind of reminds me of the surveys/census they do...Believe you me parts of the UK are just as rough as parts of the US ...

Ghettoes are the same all over the world. They stink.

I hate to be pedantic, but Whalley Range refers to:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whalley_Range,_Manchester
Whalley Range is an area of Manchester, England, about 2 miles southwest of the city centre. Historically part of Lancashire, it was one of the earliest of the city's suburbs, built by local businessman Samuel Brooks. The Smiths' eponymous album referenced Whalley Range in the song Miserable Lie, with the lyrics "What do we get for our trouble and pain? Just a rented room in Whalley Range".
The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. The true measure of a man is this: how quickly he can respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give - Philip K. Dick.
