who are the proper yorkshire clubs
barnsley "Historically in the West Riding of Yorkshire" OK but west or south, sounds like they don't know where they are from or going to
middlesbrough - teeside?
hull - humberside? / linclonshire/yorkshire
etc.

Historically, the south of the River Tees was wholly within the North Riding of Yorkshire. In 1889, Middlesbrough became a "county borough", with a rural district from 1894 to 1932, in the riding. In 1968, the town became part of the larger County Borough of Teesside. After the abolition of the County Borough in 1974, the Teesside area came under the County of Cleveland. Middlesbrough Council then became a unitary authority, following the abolition of Cleveland, in 1996 and the borough became a part of North Yorkshire for ceremonial purposes. Today, Middlesbrough is the largest town within the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire. The last first class cricket county championship game played at Acklam Park was in 1996, against Surrey. As for the city of Kingston upon Hull following the  Local Government Act, Hull became a county borough, a local government district independent of the East Riding of Yorkshire. This district was dissolved under the Local Government Act 1972, on 1 April 1974 when it became a non-metropolitan district of the newly created shire county of Humberside. Humberside (and its county council) was abolished on 1 April 1996 and Hull was made a unitary authority area. The final first class Yorkshire match was played at The Circle, Hull in 1974. These two cities are the usual bones of contention as to county boundaries. To be honest, it's fairly well defined - south of the Tees and north of the Humber, it's Yorkshire in my mind so both these qualify. P.S. why does typing the year one thousand, eight hundred and eighty eight in numeric form result in a bloke swilling down a pint of ale, strange? |

Sheffield was in the West Riding too, until that political abomination of South Yorkshire was conjured up out of thin air.

We are the best county in the country.
If you set aside the bad stuff that every region in the country has, not just us.
We have:
Historical old Mill Towns
Some of the best scenery in the country ( best imo )
The best coastline in the country
Sporting Heritage deep rooted within the people.
Original humour / grumpiness
Beer - better than anywhere else
Fish n Chips - Have you ever had these down South?
If Yorkshire is so bad, why does it feature so often on Films and TV?
Easy to take it for granted.

What the hell you going on about, never read such cringey clueless bollox. Do you live in the real world, its a northern industrial town. Dont be resigned try Surrey or some other southern middle class home county. I don't live in Yorkshire but guess what still have the same social problems. |

I've worked in mills in Yorkshire and Lancashire, and the lancastrians were the better people.
Easier to work with, more sociable, fewer arseholes, harder working, more sincere.
Having said that, my boss (greek fella) - absolute cockwomble.
If I ever happen to come back to the UK, I doubt I'll head back to Yorkshire though. Much better places in the country to live and work. If I was able to retire anywhere - North Wales. If I was still working, we'd head to Hampshire where the missus originates from.
Birchencliffe is pretty acurate with his observations imo.

Always felt folk from Hull were very proud to be from Yorkshire, whereas Middlesbrough folk were a bit lukewarm, preferring to call themselves Teesiders, and associating themselves more with the North East

Far prouder to be Yorkshire than English or British I’ve worked for companies that are based in the Sarf for the last 20 years . This has meant me having to travel to the office in the forbidden world at least once a month. Several months ago I noticed that there was the magazine “Kent Life” on the Reception coffee table. Next time I went down there I threw it in the bin and replaced it with “Yorkshire Life” |

If you like fish and chips with the skin left on the fish before battering, then don't buy 'em in Huddersfield...
Nor should you ask for fish, chips and peas down south and expect to get a very 'light' tub of peas...

There are dickheads in Yorkshire, there’s dickheads in Lancashire. Even if there was a mythical place without dickheads, dickheads would by their very nature end up there, ruining it for everyone like a...dickhead.
