The Worst Things in Redcar, Cleveland*

The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it

You can tell us more about Redcar.

The Worst Things

• Corus Steel being allowed to pollute the place.Time it was pulled down and the land used to provide jobs for more than the 2500 steelworkers,that amount of land you could create double those amount of jobs.However the steelworks culture is deeply ingrained here
• BEATINGS IN THE HYDRO
• dont even go there
• The leering men and the old people. Even if your'e a local you get stared at by these simpletons. The market on a Wednesday - old people blocking the pavements while they marvel at the delights of the peg stall and the meat vans.
• The amusements on the stray, stinks and not a fit bloke in sight, the tourists in the summer that think they own the place
• scallys
• There are some people still living in the dark ages in some places. Attitudes from the victorian era. Sitting in Locke Parke with my sister and our children the other day a woman sitting on abench next to us said "your English is better than mine". We are oriental, but its just the way we were born. Our father a brit soldier married a chinese woman and hey presto we arrived. I am also a soldier serving in the british army and have done for some 21 years, but even so have to rely on this fact to prove that i am not an immigrant. During my fathers wake my brother in law (english through and through) was asked by someone why he was "mixing" with the likes of us; this after burying my dad! I'm not saying everyone in Redcar is like this but it does make me wonder every time I come home on leave. What is going on with the town?

• Used condoms on the beach and the constant smell of shit.
• the dickheads who try and start on kids and darby
• The road into town.
• The road into town.
• All of it!
• No football team at a high level
• Disappointing that a town the size of Redcar does not have at least a Northern League or Unibond football team. I.e a standard good enough to have floodlights.Redcar were in the Wearside league recently,but have folded.Possibly one of the reasons for this is a lack of community,unlike neighbours Marske who have a Northern League team supported fanatically along with Marske cricket club.Marske smaller place but more community spirit

• Watching the dumb grockles who come down when it's high or spring tides thinking they can outrun the big breakers! then listening to them moan they are cold and wet (funny how they always seem to omit the fact that they are quite dumb as well!)
• redcar is a place i will never ever visit for a short day out with the kids.....your stupid seafront ""bumps in the road""....and trafic wardens who went to the council school of hitlerisim.......a nast cold place full of bagheads who just wait around to rob you....silly pound shops and charity shops.......nice place i was told at one point in time......well you vote your council in each time...so dont complain about it...i can as i dont live there..
• Having lack of leisure facilities, especially for teenagers. Examples are Modern Cinemas, Swimming Pools, Ten Pin Bowling and any other in that catergory.
• Smakheads askin for money
• Sea Mice (used tampons floating in the sea). Golf course, council run, free access to walk your mutt making it the only links course in the world where you get a free drop if your ball lands on a dog turd. Kudo's, the kids are younger than the one's in the Wacky warehouse!

• I have a friend whome I worked alongside for a few years, he came to visit me from his home town of Durrington, just near Stonehenge, He brought his family with him which included 5 Kids, I took them into the high Street and onto the beach and my friend remarked to me just before going home " Dave this has got to be the dirtiest seaside town in the country, I have honestly never been anywhere as bad". his visit to the shelves of a very well known national book and magazine shop provided him with his first ever view of two seperate shop lifting events taking place at the same time, I said welcome to REDCAR
