  • fat women with fags hanging out of their mouths. They usually have about 6 kids trailing behind them. They are usually screaming at their children to "shut the f**k up".They are usually dressed in black leggings, big baggy t shirts and red zip up fleeces oh yeah and flip flops on their feet.They have greasy hair and look like they havent washed for months.
  • Surely Walsall has the highest rate of obesity in Britain.
  • the young moms, its terrible, ever heard of a condom????!!!
  • it has to be the women. They are foul mouthed, fat, disgusting creatures who wear clothes that are too small for them so their fat hangs everywhere! They usually have at least 6 kids in tow and are usually screaming at the poor things.oh yeah, a fag hanging out their mouths too.

DO NOT GO THERE. believe me u will regret it.
  • is generally crap
  • HAVING TO GET UP AND WALK TO WORK DOWN LICHFIELD STREET EVERYDYA....
  • 'Georges' pub is no more ! Big Ron's eating house rules now!
  • Everything. atmos, pollution, litter, trouble. I hate it, and can't wait to leave
  • tramps n pigeons
  • The whole town is full of nutcases, my poor sister is still stuck there so i have to visit, can never wat to get home though, BAD NIGHTMARES still haunt me of that place,
  • Too many fat birds!
  • The bloody council - leeches - I'm paying around a thousand pounds a year to have my bins emptied, I get NOTHING ELSE!!! NO Police, No road improvements (Unless you live in Park Hall with all the councillors, who have their roads and paths relaid every 18 months)
  • crackheads; walsall has many crackheads and they WILL try to fight you. youve been warned
  • haveing to fight my way threw life,school rough areas i lived in
  • Townies.
  • Well ! the best thing that could happen to walsall would be a 1 megaton thermonuclear device, ground zero could be one of two places- The town hall, or, the arboretum island. Walsall is the pits, it comes out top of many lists of shame. Worst roads, worst hospital, worst council, worst stretch of motorway, worst under age pregnancy statistics, highest council tax etc etc, it has one 4 mile stretch of road with more gatso cameras than anywhere else in the country- A34( you've been warned) it's purgatory trying to drive around the place, it's got speed humps, bumps, ramps, chicanes, cycle lanes, potholes, road works, and it goes on. Why anybody would want to visit the place is beyond me, the town centre drains stink, park near any building and the pigeons shit all over your car, don't bother with the pay and display car park in Stafford St unless you've got a half-track, it looks like it has been carpet bombed! There are rats running around the town( that's official), in short the place just sucks bigtime, thinking of coming here? don't bother! especially if you have a weak bladder, you won't find the toilets, instead try Lichfield or Tamworth or if you're the other end Worcester or Leamington Spa, lovely clean places to shop where the council don't regard you as a leper if you drive in.
  • Walsall can't pretend to be anything it ain't.
  • SETT THE PLACE ON FIRE.
  • gettintg chased by the various gangs of townies especially the rmcs who are just a bunch of teenage pussys fighting in gangs cus they cant do it by themselves
  • A lot of people who dont know what outside of Walsall is like ie. inbreds!! Dance music (which I actually like..) in every club no idea about culture!! Scummy youngsters acting 'ard
  • everythang
  • The genuine born and bred Walsall people, i have lived amongst them for the past 20 yrs and i can tell you that they're a bunch of inbred, illiterate unprincipled, ill mannered, unscrupulous, thieving, smelly, idle good for nothing tossers. They're stupid but they know the benefit system inside out, they don't work but they have satellite dishes, they all smoke and booze, their idea of recreation is robbing, tatting, fighting, shoplifting, tv soaps and knocking enough sprogs out so they pick up close on £100 a week child benefit. The teachers at the local schools deserve medals. I dont know why we have an art gallery, it's like casting pearls before swine, a communal wash house would have been of more benefit, the place just sucks!
  • cum home wiv a disease or sumfink~!!!
  • Marks and spencers have nice food at expensive prices
  • Rubbish everywhere
  • Bluecoat Church of England School
  • Townies standing outside of the saddler's center on a saturday with rockports and ugly girls whose idea of style is still black boottlegs, a sports jacket, hair scraped back with half a can of hairspray, and the biggest fake gold hoop earings they can find in the halfprice jewellers along with their twelve chains of various lengths.
  • 'Booze N News' - it aint the best.
  • They r too many drugies & bad boy "Wannabies" in bichills who are just waiting 2 b dropped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • the scutters, the rubbish, the illeterate walsallers who cant string a sentance together "i ay gewin there like, yow gew yaself if yow want it bab!"
  • too many people smoke too much litter young people need more places to go,need decent skateparks youth club and organised youth music events
  • so is coleman
  • QM girls school slappers standing oat the 377 bus stop thinking they're cool-die slappers die!!!!!
  • HAVING NO HIPPO
  • the place is a dive, lots of violence, but hey we love it and its our town.
  • If your very very Un-lucky, you might see me working around Walsall !
  • the fountain full of greebs and the black statue of diana
  • It's a crap place to live basically cos there ain't much to do there in terms of entertainment, leisure besides drink, drink and guess what? Drink..!
  • farts and aweaty feet in harleys
  • walsall
  • THE CRIME! IM A WALSALL GIRL THROUGH AND THROUGH AND HATE TO SEE THE AMOUNT OF HASSLE PEOPLE IN WALSALL GET FRM THE OD FEW WHO THINK THEY CAN STEAL AND SCARE EVERYBODY CAUSE ITS FUN WELL I LIVE AND WORK IN BIRMINGHAM NOW AND I JUST WISH WALSALL WAS AS FRIENDLY AS WHERE IM AT KNOW.
  • Bloxwich and surrounding areas
  • The crap people in Walsall
  • Incredibly boring place for anyone with more than 1 braincell !
  • Everything.
  • when you're waiting 4 a taxi pissed out your tree at 3 on the morning and u suddenly get the smell of cabbage from the drains.
  • Having southern t**ts asking if you come from Birmingham.
  • Too many twats, too much fighting, lots of gangs between the little regions. Beechdale is the most messed up place full of racists.. Birchills is a doss hole for the young asian community (i live there.. ahem..). Prostitutes (that a bad thing? lol) pimps, druggies, subways on wolverhampton road full of crap and graffiti watch out for the "faz" tags everywhere (not me.. ahem.. lol)
  • Another worst thing, Walsall's hospitals are the worst in Britain according to a recent survey. Oh yes, and the accent is much worse than Brummy. So there.
  • BAILEYS. IT'S A BIT DARK IN THERE- Can't find my way to the bar.
  • SKAG! We don't need this shit it's killing our generation!
  • Snobbiness of some residents from the few and far between nice parts (streetley, aldridge), fighting(it's everywhere and anywhere) Mugging in places like Palfrey, the streets of boarded up houses in Blakenall, the desperation in areas like birchills, etc etc etc.
  • The railway station is embedded in a shopping centre, but if you try to wheel a bike though the centre to get to the station, you get snotty security announcements over the tannoy shouted at you, 'cos they don't allow bikes (or boards) in the centre.
  • Waiting for a bus thats half a hour late, or dson't even come!
  • Having to work there; The neanderthals who inhabit the town at weekends;(for the benefit of the neanderthals this is a big word which you will never have heard before which roughly means the same as moron.
  • The fact that there is very little to do!
  • Skag problem. Drifts of litter all over the floor in every street. The drains stink in the Summer. Most of the thoroughfares are paved with chewing gum, which is a bit shabby. I still have to go back to visit my family. The population aren't really that friendly, except when the Saddlers win- then they are a bit too familiar.
  • The road system and the amount of pedestrian crossings it takes to cross the road around the bridge street area!!
  • to many loonies looking for a fight.
  • most Of Walsall
  • Most of Walsall's worst sights can be found at the UGLY Walsall website www.uglywalsall.myhome.org.uk
  • The new Art Gallery - hideous on the outside, beautiful on the inside, full of crappy modern art - big blue squares painted by really talented artists - honest! Oh, and big blu-tack sculptures - didn't we all do those as kids?
  • The cheap 'n nasty clothes bought for £1 from the saturday market
  • ITs a bit dull and could do with a decent club.
  • Its fulll of scubbers and pigeons. And there are quite a few Mingers!!
  • Crap 377 bus service.
  • The people! The town! CoalPool Bloxwich Just aBOUT ALL OF IT REALLY
  • The place and the people Goscote, Beechdale, Bloxwich, Pleck etc. too many to list the average IQ (worryingly low) the accent - gross everyone fights - ALL THE TIME The "Hogg" and "D.L.Pennington" , anyone who went to Queen Marys knows those two bastards.
  • while away I find myself breathing deeply of car exhaust fumes to remind me of home, can't be good! oh and the buses stop at 11pm or some stupid time.
  • The litter.
  • The accent, especially the Leamore and Goscote dialect. The women only know the following: *Smoke *Swear *Shag Walsall has the highest teenage pregnacy rates in the country, so there is a small probability of pulling a bird who has not got a kid.
  • being asked if you are from poland being dubbed a brummie coming home after a year way and finding it all the same the woman are, i have to say, by and large pretty fat and ugly. with some notable exceptions
  • Coming back
  • town hall is full of people who couldnt run a town if they tried

  • THE M6 MOTORWAY THE ONE-WAY SYSTEM
  • Pigeons, smelly, kind o' dirty...... can I stop now?
  • Walsall is a debauched plague pit that should be built over and forgotten.Or turned into a nice big park or something.
