That's just a personal opinion, I'm sure many people love Adelaide like myself. I've been to Melbourne countless times and whilst it is a nice, more iconic city, I'd rather live in Adelaide any day.Melbourne as a city is better then Adelaide
yeah ill pay that!!tbh the whole "adelaide is a hole, a small country town" makes me laugh. As a country boy it's such stupid line to use as it's nothing like one.
Adelaide as a city pretty much has everything the "big" cities have just in smaller amounts. If big, smelly dirty crowded towers of concrete is ya thing than sure you'll find Melbourne better. If ya want a felling of a bit of space and the convienance of less traffic, less people and the more relaxed atmosphere/slower pace of life that most people are chasing nowdays than Adelaide will appeal to you more.
It's interesting that almost all the English people that i have talked to that have come here love Adelaide for those reasons, part of the reason many of them have left England to get away from the large cities.
But each to there own tbh, but i do agree that you don't choose to follow a team, your team chooses you.
Thing about England is there's so many big cities they just become pointless, take Bradford for example, one of the biggest cities in England and there's nothing there because why would an investor put anything into Bradford when you have Leeds next door and Manchester only 30mins away? Adelaide has everything for me, I always laugh when people say Adelaide's boring because I'm into some rather niche things such as Ice Hockey, Gridiron and Professional Wrestling and they're all in Adelaide at just a Google search away, only thing I can think that Melbourne has over Adelaide is a multitude of designer shopping outlets, but Adelaide has plenty compared to lots of English cities, certainly as many as Leeds. And I'm hardly a fashionista anyway (he says wearing his 1994 Republic of Ireland shirt).It's interesting that almost all the English people that i have talked to that have come here love Adelaide for those reasons, part of the reason many of them have left England to get away from the large cities.
But the same could be said for Liverpool or Leeds! Two clubs with half a pea between them, big mouth and no brains.Having said that MV are now in my opinion the Collingwood of the A-league (especially now we have Melbourne Heart which I like as a club) they play like a bunch of bogans and the more out spoken supporters of MV are numbskulled bogans too (some of their comments on TWG website definitely back that up!)
I find Adelaide to be a pleasant city with friendly people.tbh the whole "adelaide is a hole, a small country town" makes me laugh. As a country boy it's such stupid line to use as it's nothing like one.

Ummm... there are many English cities smaller than Adelaide, and some barely larger than it. And some areas, like the north-east and Merseyside, are intensely paroachial and with similar attitudes to Adelaide.It's interesting that almost all the English people that i have talked to that have come here love Adelaide for those reasons, part of the reason many of them have left England to get away from the large cities.
Went to perth for the bonjovi concert a month back, got chatting with ppl at the concert as you do, they told us how adelaide is so boring.... so we asked themI have a Norwegian friend here who recently went to Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne. On his return he raved about Adelaide, particularly the botanical gardens and the parklands, and wondered why everyone kept talking about how great Melbourne was. I laughed.
Yeah, but there are plenty of English people who knock Adelaide as well. It's each to their own.It's interesting that almost all the English people that i have talked to that have come here love Adelaide for those reasons, part of the reason many of them have left England to get away from the large cities.
Brilliant!Same guy worked as a coach for MV but when we went over to Melb for the game he met us in the pub, bought a Red Army shirt and stood with us in the away end singing and chanting along with us.
Go to a bonjovi concert one would assume?
