I'm all out of medals mate, sorry :/

Any Blue Peter badges?

What a stupid list, how can any western city come into it. When you got war lords, dictators and cities that are one huge toxic waste dumps.

Have you made something out of **** roll?

Worse than Mogadishu?

First of the worst: Detroit, home to General Motors Corporation, in the U.S. state of Michigan was given the title of world's worst city

Wolverhampton does smell of sick though

I'm surprised birmingham/ london/ manchester/ liverpool/ blackpool isn't in there.
Wolverhamptom is a bit of a dive yeah but it's nothing compared to those ****holes.

But it doesn’t have that stench of death like Mogadishu and other hell holes have.

What do you expect from a list of "hated cities" provided by Lonely Planet website readers. It's just another internet list.

But it doesn’t have armed gangs riding around in trucks armed with guns and RPGs.

I once got stopped in St Pauls in Bristol at 03:00 by a few bad boy's looking to rob some dumbass White boy.

They didn't get the accent seeing as I couldn't speak due to a severe intake of alcohol.

They asked me where I was from and I mumbled "Reans, Wolves"

"Ahhh roight mate, you're alroight mate"

They then gave me a green cigarette to walk home with

I’m beginning to think that I should avoid the place.
