2021 UK City Of Culture - Results Thread

Think it was today that the focus was on Swansea. We were on Tuesday


Are you a Sandy marra?

Born in Shields, live in Cleadon, lived in Sunderland, as said, but also with wife's parents in TEF for 6 months. Very supportive of the bid. Anything to get money in. But not always in agreement with some development decisions.
I worked in Sunderland for around 30 years.

Aye that was my initial thought but I didn't think they'd do that on the same day as the results.

I have a feeling that we are at a disadvantage, as we are a very similar city to Hull, otherwise we've had a great bid.

If people got banned for that there wouldn't be many of us left

Only wrang-un's use the term "grass".

Can we get a picture of our councillors faces when the vote comes in?

Location should not be a factor at all, but politics dictates it

Typical sunderland mentality, I make a joke and everyone wants me banned and calls me a wanker.

Loads of people pile in saying ‘there’s no point’ ‘we won’t win’ ‘we’re too similar to hull’ and no one says a thing.

We need to start thinking and acting more positive and have pride in the city, you don’t see the residents of Manchester slagging the place off!

We’re gonna win! Haway!

Hadn’t reason Swansea were up for it last time.

If the draw is delayed we know it’s Coventry

I thought the City of Culture went to cities that were a bit backward Culturally and could do with the investment - Newcastle didn't win it because they were over-catered in the Arts etc I was told!
