So theses Devil Worshippers have Satanic rituals & like black masses and things? Do you think one of them might have put a spell on Blackburn Rovers?

Maybe times have changed, when I was a kid( and I know all the jokes, Pontius wasnt even a Pilot, Bodercia hadnt passed her driving test) Townies were Gypos who lived in Huncoat or Fern Gore, but never in Accy only Greasers and about 7 mods with scooters.

Goths are not necessarily devil-worshippers.....of course some of them consider themselves to be satanic but at the end of the day FROM MY KNOWLEDGE AND IN MY OPINION hardly any of them do any real worshipping and cant answer any questions of the real 'religion' of satanism. Some of claim to be wiccans yet cannot answer questions on magic that i have asked them,some dress like it because of the music they listen to EG marylyn manson or cradle of filth, some because it makes them feel different and feel society doesnt let them be who they want therefor go for alternative but it has ended up there being so many of them they are not a minority any more.

Am I right in thinking the Townies/Chavs wear crappy track suites, Burberry caps and over-priced trainers ??

If so most are real inadequates (Liberal hat on)

Sara · 07-04-2004, 13:02

I'm 43 and i remember the skin heads and mods, think it would have been around mid 70s. The skin heads were really intimidating.

ellie · 07-04-2004, 13:59

i like the designer gear and a good night out clubbibng does that make me a towney?

Pingu · 07-04-2004, 18:26

I hate them so much because:

The way they always think that theyre soooooo awesomely good in fights...
The way they call skaters and moshers goths...
The way they think that their Rockfords

make them look hard...
Oh and as the name that i call them "Pants in socks crew" is soooo true, Yeah lets go and tuck our pants into our socks... which prat thought of that?

It just annoys me.

Tealeaf · 07-04-2004, 18:47

Do they tuck their shirts into their underpants?

Yep - I was wondering when someone would mention that! You have to wear trackie bottoms - with the socks over the top, you can wear very expensive trainers, but no true Townie would be seen without their Rockports! Also, designer jumper - preferably with lots of stripes. Why anyone would wear boots with sportswear is what gets me the most annoyed.

I also saw a townie in the heat of the summer (yeah we did have one) with gloves on (???) He probably wouldn't be seen dead in gloves in winter!

Am as baffled as the rest of us "oldies" as to what the bleeding hell this thread is about....purpose? Value? Thought I was fairly modern in my outlook,pigeonholing people because of what they wear seems a little bit non pc!!!Used to be a rocker myself,now more at home with Beautiful South and Foo Fighters;whet does that make me??
