I don't know where "gordie" originbates from - to be honest I don't care. I was born and raised in Accrington/Church until I was 21 and then joined the R.A.F. Been back for visits over the years, still have family there.
Yes, it has changed, maybe for the better, maybe not, but it is still my hometown, and when people try and take the p*** because of Stanley, I will still defend my home town - even though I do not like Stanley and haven't done since the early 50s, but Accrington is my home town. If yu don't like it gordie, there are many who will be prepared to point you to the exit roads, and will not be sorry to see you depart, going off prvious posts on this thread.
