We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about

Warrington in the Public eye : Wed Feb 18, 2009 11:59 am  
Bit off topic, to an extent, but meh.

With Warrington creeping back into the national media spotlight, with the John Terry look-a-like on the front page of a national tabloid, and the no kissing signs making the 10o'clock news t'other day, I thought I'd ask how people think we as a town, as people and as a club are percieved by a wider population?
I know that we have a few 'outsiders' on here, from chester or further beyond, how do people see the club you follow?
When you are on holiday, for example, and someone asks where you are from, do you quietly mutter 'Warrington' under your breath?
Or do you parade round in a shirt/shorts, etc and show pride for both your town and club?
Or somewhere in the middle?
What about those of us who have family elsewhere, or do a bit of travelling through work, or even those who studied higher education elsewhere? What do people seem to think of Warrington?

Union is played by people who close airports after a bit of snow, League is played by people who would go and have a snowball fight with a 747

I walk around with my shirts proudly displayed, ignoring the people who ask me if I'm from Wolverhampton.

I went to university in the Midlands and to be honest I usually had to explain that Warrington was between Manchester and Liverpool as most people had never heard of it.

A paradox wrapped in an enigma. Or is it the other way round?
A very parochial place, which at the same time seems to be screaming out to discover its own identity.
I think it comes from being located midway between Manchester and Liverpool.
Back in the day (1970's and 1980's) it was considered by others as a town full of brawlers!

I go to Uni in Ormskirk (Edge Hill) and i've had to explain to people where Warrington is. :lol: :shock:

As for a town identity, i don't think we really have one.
