I've admitted my reasons are selfish, because I've genuinely been grateful to sit there, on at least half a dozen occasions.

The only time we've ever had a problem with drinkers, was when we were shouted at by some, who were acting the fool, whilst sat on the benches in Church St.
Gary i'm certainly not saying anyone is telling lies, & as i say myself & pretty much everyone from what i can see, agree's the decision is the wrong one, & perhaps i'm using a very broad stoke in describing things, as i accept if you say its putting you off coming to Accrington town centre, then it must be.

However leaving the removal to one side for the moment then, where is it where you are going to shop in the locality now, that provides more free seating than Accrington town centre. I don't really know of anywhere, so i'm trying to draw a comparison between other towns.
