Bradford is one of those places that unless you had the misfortune of being born here, you wouldn't choose to move here unless you were mentally inbalanced or very misinformed! I (as you may have guessed) was born here, and after my parents decided to move me to a more affluent area in Leeds to go to high school, I had ... Read the complete review

Bradford - what a hole. I went to Uni in Bradford seven years ago and hated every minute of living in there. After I graduated I swore I'd never go back there but, unfortunately, I had to go back on my word as a friend got married there last summer. After revisiting it, it was apparent that not much has changed. Okay, so there is more ... Read the complete review

Bradford is my home town, I have lived here all my life, to be honest its not actually as bad as some people make out. It does have its bad areas, but so does everywhere! Its has two good sporting teams, Bradford City football, and Bradford Bulls for the rugby. The shopping in Bradford isnt that great, but it does have most of ... Read the complete review

It used to be joked that Bradford was merely a convenient car park for Leeds. Not in my opinion - the increased range of boutique shopping aside, there is no reason i'd prefer the latter fpr the former. Changes are afoot here in Bradford - with a billion or so pounds being pumped in to to transform huge swathes of 60's ... Read the complete review

This site is an avenue through which opinions are passed. Why then do I read review after review lacking just that - opinion. Everybody wants to be too nice so as not to offend others. For instance on one of my ops regarding homelessness (shameless plug I know) and street begging, I launch an attack at the homeless, which though to most ... Read the complete review

Last night there was more rioting in Bradford where the police took great casulties and many people were hurt. Many shops and cars were torched and lot's of asian owned shops were left alone. The police were short numbered and the rioters were mainly asians that were protesting against a NAZI march which should never ... Read the complete review

Bradford. I have lived here for about 18 months now. I have to say that at first, I absolutely hated the place but now, I merely dislike it. Why? Lets start with shopping, Bradford doesn't even have a Woolworth's! (doesn't everywhere have one?) You simply can't have a 'good day's shopping' in Bradford, every ... Read the complete review

As my name suggests I*m from Bradford and quite proud of it,I*m an exile living in Scotland at the moment. People knock Bradford all the time Dark satanic Mills and all that,but that is part of its charm,the city fathers stopped knocking down those mills and old victorian buildings just in time.The culture of Bradford is something to ...

Bradford is a weird place. I do not live there; in fact I would not live there if I could help it, yet it a holds a strange fascination over me. I was born and raised in Huddersfield, a typical Yorkshire mill town about 15 miles away, and even from an early age was subjected to the local prejudices about Bradford. The only time any ...

I really can't understand why Bradford has the reputation it has. It could have something to do with Mr Bryson from the "lovely place" that is Iowa coming over and telling everyone what a hole it is. What he did was unfair and demeening, not to say untrue. Firstly, he judged the entire city on its centre and secondly he ... Read the complete review

Being a Bradfordian and proud of it is not the most uncommon of things as it is, all too supprisingly for most people, a very nice city but has poor PR. Smack bang in the middle of the country and along major road and rail networks, and its own International Airport (which we let Leeds use too), with history, industry, countryside, and ...

Bradford is a shit hole. I?m sorry but it has to be said. I have lived here for 20 years and have had enough. The shops are crap, just high street rubbish, and the nightlife is probably the worst in northern England. You have a choice of about three clubs. Two play 80s trash and the other plays cheese dance. With the latest spate of gang ... Read the complete review

Bradford is a good place for two things - curry and curry. It's a grimy city but is on the up and up with the West End of it being transformed over the last few years into an array of pubs and clubs and the emmergence of the football team. You won't be lost if you're a curry fan either because there is lots of it ... Read the complete review

Bradford is a great place for a weekend away. Trust me there is so much to see and do, first visit the National Museum of Photography Film and TV, it's FREE and is brilliant. Bradford has had IMAX (the huge cinema format) for well over 15 years now, and is well worth a view. After that pop for a curry, yes obvious but a ... Read the complete review

Admit it, everybody has heard bad things about Bradford. When you come in on the train, the first thing you see of Bradford is grimey red brick, houses and factories that are falling down, knackered old railway lines.........need I go on???

Although this is my hometown I thank the lord that I don't live there anymore. Not that Hull is much better but anyway.... Bradford always has been grim and disgusting.
