Not at all ,I only asked when I can view the Castle ,or the remains of this future tourist attraction that has cost proper Sheffielders their much loved markets area.

I would count myself as a Sheffielder, born here, mostly lived here. I think I can speak for many other Sheffielders, as well as those who have moved to the city, as say that we had no love whatsoever for the markets area.

 

What makes you think you are some kind of "proper Sheffielder", whatever that might be? Is it dependent on postcode?

The much loved area needed revigorating, badly. The few times I went to Castle Market were the few times I was confronted with the desolate starkness of Thatcher's legacy. Decrepit, run-down, smelly, full of vagrants and bored OAPs and not a single thing I would want to buy. About time we moved on, about ten years too late I'd say.

Bemoaning someone for making personal insults and then going on to insult someone personally and with a sexist undertone. Charming.

Please explain daft Lad . By the  way daft lad and daft lass are an old endearing term from North Yorkshire as I am sure that an expert in all things that are traditional in these parts would know.

That should read "...an old endearing term from northern Yorkshire..." or an old endearing term from the North Riding of Yorkshire...".

"North Yorkshire" is about as traditional  as the Royal  Hallamshire Hospital.

Castle Market was built by the Socialist Republic of South Yorkshire not by Thatcher.
