SiJ Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Apparently people in Hull get very upset if you say they are from Humberside. They certainly consider themselves to be from Yorkshire. Still: Sheffield number 3 or possibly 2, er depending on Boro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Boro is North yorkshire , hull is East Riding of yorkshire Hull have never been able to decide where they are placed but most reluctantly accept that we are stuck with them as part of Yorkshire. Do the people of Middlesbrough regard themselves as Yorkshire folk? Little or no reference at all to Yorkshire on their council website pages or on the official visit Middlesbrough site.

darklord Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Everyone in East Yorkshire gets annoyed at Humberside though I get more annoyed if someone thinks I'm from Brid or hull! Pissed me of some companies address systems say north Humberside despite it not exsisting for decades I loved near boro for years and older folks class themselves as Yorkshire and the younger as north east Edited April 18, 2015 by darklord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look at Erismus's posts on his Boro fan in peace thread. It might give you a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POWP Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) To those who don't think Middlesbrough and Hull are in Yorkshire... do you also think Pluto is a planet? Edited April 18, 2015 by POWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the one Boro fan that has come on to suck up to us has delcared himself a Yorkshireman so that's conclusive! Aside from the fact his local Radio Teeside never has any coverage of the Yorkshire teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edmontonowl Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 We beat Boro home and away so we're obviously better than them. Plus Hull are w_ank and have the classless/clueless Steve Bruce so we're classier. Ergo Wednesday are No. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually York is not that close but Middlesbrough is in the middle of nowhere. They cover Yorkshire cricket.

darklord Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Tis all bloody confused up there. We lived in County Durham, had a Hartlepool dialing code and a teesside postcode but a Sunderland Yellow Pages and a Middlesbrough phone book. That thre counties covered in one house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know that up to 1996 Yorkshire used to play home matches at Acklam Park, Middlesbrough. That might give you a clue.

chad Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Neither is Sheffield using that logic. sssshhhhh they also played in Hull till 1990 so that's not officially in Yorkshire either So in Conclusion Sheffield,Middlesbrough and Hull aren't in Yorkshire.
