Accrington Vs. Blackburn. Which is better?
Id appreciate your views on which town is better.
Between Blackburn and Accrington?
I think its Blackburn, even though i live in accrington.
For once, theres less crime, even tho Khawers dad, the counciller, has tried to bring crime rates down.
Theres better transport, i.e. bus companies.
Its a far more developed town.
Its economically and industrially better.
A better town centre
What more can i say?

Bit of a strange post for your first one, didn't even test the water first, for my part the only thing good about Blackburn is the Rovers, you can keep it for me otherwise, and if you live in Accy but think Blackburn is better feel free to sod off and don't come back

Re: Accrington Vs. Blackburn. Which is better?
blackburn has less empty shops but then again they have just demolished a lot of them lol
nightlife is a complete waste of time in both towns
blackburn has a much better waste collection system as in weekly not fortnightly
swings and roundabouts realy , both are crap holes if you ask me

Re: Accrington Vs. Blackburn. Which is better?
Ha bleeding ha! how did I know you were going to come up with that!?
I asked the person that seems to think it is so, to expand on it, why he thought that, he hasn't bothered to. I await his learned reply.
As far as I am concerned the two aren't comparable.
Blackburn is a much bigger place, so is bound to have more industry for starters
Why does that necessarily equate to economically better?
discard my tag? You mean my sig?
Why?
