100 reasons is my target, but why stop there?

I'll get the ball rolling...


* Brighton beach
* The Lanes piss all over the Drummond Centre
* Brighton has green open space
* Our girls are much fitter than the dogs you get in Croydon
* Honey Club vs Atlantis = No contest

If you said "on average" at the start, I'd agree, but I rather like a certain young lady who currently lives in Croydon, who certainly doesn't rate as a dog. :love:





* Whitehawk is better than Thornton Heath.

I haven't got the hang of this, have I? :dunce: :D

I'll try again tomorrow!

Brighton is by the sea and the downs....what is Croydon near?

we have the Albion....they have Palarse

We have the Pavilion....they don't

We have a pier (and one that fell down)...they don't

Abba won the Eurvision song contest in Brighton....not Croydon

We're not getting relegated this season....Palarse are.

night all.

If you live in Brighton you don't smell like poo, your dad isn't also your uncle, we don't all wear burberry caps and our adidas trousers tucked into our white socks, we're hemmed in by beautiful downs and the sea while Croydon is hemmed in and around the M25, only a handful of us live in tower blocks, most of us have jobs.

I found THIS SITE about local heroes in Croydump

Jordan!!!:nono: Sums up croydon itself. Trashy, fake and full of shite

Kate Moss and Louise Burding were born and raised in Croydon. See, were not all ugly!

Talking of comedy, our local team, Crystal Palace

funny rastafarian who always tries to sell you reggae tapes outside mcdonalds


Enough said.

I take it that's a question? And in answer, it is an open thread which I hoped would gather momentum and together we can list 100 reasons, where's the fun in doing it all on my own?

And no you should have said the lanes smell of piss.

That simply isn't true, whereas the average Croydon tower block will have taken over 9 litres of urine down the walls and corridors in any one week.

What girls their all trannies.

Again your punctuation and grammar let you down. Here in Sussex we have what are known as schools to teach us such simple rules.

No gays in Atlantis.

I should think not. Mostly for fear of being beaten up by Croydon Neo-Nazi's. That's not something to boast about.

Who wants a scummy beach.

Another ideal place for a question mark, sadly lacking once again. In answer however, I would put money on a great deal more people choosing beach over urine-soaked concrete jungle.

Still thinking of the rest are you.

I've got thousands more mate. But this is a discussion board, I like to see everyone get involved.

Brighton is a shit hole with nothing to offer.

Croydon people come to Brighton even if they don't have to. However, as a Brightonian, I have only ever been to Croydon either a) to get something from Tchibo or b) to go and shag my ex-girlfriend who, incidentally, described all the local blokes there as "very ugly".

All you have to do is note the amount of tourists in brighton esp in the summer- and foreign students that come over to study here.

- Im sorry, but croydon is a f####ng dump. Its rough as f###, i feel safe walking around brighton at any time (esp after being up at manchester at unifor 2 years!!)
- our clubs win hands down,
- you're far less likely to get your head kicked in for accidently stepping on someones foot in a crowded brighton club,
- our girls have CLASS,
- we have beautiful countryside on our doorstep,
- the people of our fair city are in general very friendly,
- its a very laid back city,
- theres a distinct lack of pikey burbery trackie wearing scum when walking around brighton,
- the BEACH! on a sunny day is lovely
- the pier
- the sea
- brightons by far prettier (croydons a concrete jungle)
- The lanes
- brightons a very multicultural city
- brightons not in london! (thats gotta count as a reason why its better?!)
- the boardwalk
- our accents nowhere near as harsh
- we have lots of green open spaces
- brightons the setting of many radio 1 parties etc, norman cooks beach boutique (when it was on)
- people that come and visit brighton love it
- better q of life
- the views at sunset
- the setting for a few big movies
- brighton is very rich in history (an old fishing village etc)
- plenty of famous people live in/around brighton & hove
- the pavillion
- danny and nikki in the morning... (on now im clutching at straws!)


Im sure theres more.

Im sorry but brighton wins hands down. no contest. croydons a dump. Brighton and proud! miss it so much when up at uni.

Croydon has the Fairfield Halls.

Brighton ( well Hove actually ) has County Cricket Champions.

Croydon covers it's Cricket pitches with tarmac.

Brighton has Regency Squares.

Croydon has that great ugly law court building.

People can't wait to get out of Croydon ( or if their really sensible, don't go there in the first place ).
