this town turned me chav! well wat can i say about it, the fact is everything already stated on this site is so true you have to experience it to believe the accuracy. but what truly seperates it from chav meccas like croydon salford birkenhead,etc is the total feeling of depression and bordem and isolation from anything remotely interesting in telford the nearest big city is 28 miles away (brum) and thats a shit pit in itself (lived there for 2 years kingstanding for that matter (very chav)). the nearest beach is 90 miles away (barmouth complete dive and telfordite infested) Telford has nice country side but why the f**k would a chav care about that. the fact is out of all the 26 areas in telford i can hand on heart say they are all chav infested with the likes of Woodside, Brookside,Wellington,Arleston,Ketley,Dawley,overdale,sutton hill, hadley,donnington trench,oackengates, being 100% chav no lie.
My story
I moved to Newport wen iwas 11 a well to do market town full of snobs but only 4 miles away from the edge of telford in order to score weed or any drugs a 7 minute car journey to donnington(1 of many chav estates) which lies on the North east corner of telford was in order at first i was shocked at the slum like nature of this rural part of the country and the prescence of teenage gangs who would attempt to tax the “trainers” off your feet. but over the years of track suits,nike airtrainers and hardcore rave music, nicked car stereos that “tehlfwurd” accent in my face every day i found myself zipping my nike jacket to the top wheel spinning my car for fun flickin my gold chain out and havin it hangin over the external of my chest expressing the phrases “innit” and “no way man” “shithot” etc. actually considering spending £50 on designer shirts wen surronded by scum inthe towncentre the list goes on. i tried to escape to brum but moved back after 2 years wen i run out of money. but i didnt see the signs till it was too late after living on woodside, malinslee, wellington and now st georges the transformation is complete. from my first spliff till i bought a nova GTE wen i was 19 i didn’t see it coming it was just the norm round here, i take my hat (fake burberry) off to the strong minded idividuals who have resisted the chavness round these parts.
PS its true that telford has the highest rate of teenage pregnaceys outside inner city areas in europe FACT.
so any chavs out there who enjoy arguing with neighbours being in the drugs circle(ie everyone in telford) gettin pissed on the street, mouthing off at people for no reason, gettin repect from bein ard speeding around with shit cars, dumping any house hold waste in your garden. queing for half an hour at makideez then threatening the staff wen you get told its a 4 minute wait for a big mac religousley paying for sports wear thats either in a shop or been nicked off a washin line endless supply of nicked coffee from smakheads (loads of smakheads also) and shaggin loads of scrutty telford street rats, in return for 2′s on a lambert and butler. and an endless supply of £5 an hour agency factory work then telford is a must destination of course you will label it as shit (chavs favourite descriptive word) but you will feel well at home.
Aint Telford the place where the STD clinic is busier than the train station, bus station and all the taxi offices combined ?
Bi-sexual male central. Can only speak wonders about the girls there.
@ roger ,, did u mean that selfish bloke who jumped in front of the train… spare a thaught for the driver and his family and the ones who have to clean up after his selfish actions
i moved here in 1989 ,, i have resisted becoming a chav , and i feel like the odd one out ,, but thats how i like it ,, the hole place is like a toxic dustbin , crap nightlife too ,
TELFORD SCUM – CHANTING SHIT ABOUT GARY SPEED (rip m8) AT A FOOTY MATCH.
SAD THICK TELFORD RETARDS
we moved up here from london after my husband got threatend to be stabbed, it is nice cheap and cheerfull, there are some areas which could do with being sorted but otherwise fine .
i think you need to learn how to spell some off the towns that you are slagging off re read what you have written,
like what has been posted before if you ae desperate not to be a chav or live in telford/newport then you would do anything to get out of it trust me i risked my marriage and moved 250 miles because we were desperate to move out off london,
everyne in telford thinks they are “ard” try living in brixton in london for a few days belive me you are not .
the only satistics that are true is teenage pregnancies evrything else is pretty much the same as any town
if its that bad why would u move bk. Ive lived in telford all my life. Its not as bad as your makin out. Every town/city in the uk has bad areas. Im not a chav. And telford didnt make u a chav u r 1 cos your a sheep and do what every1 tells u 2do.
i love the chavs cant wait too meet u all ,, up the welsh
yeah i agree wiv most of what ur saying i live on woodside, hav all my life and it is a shit hole people havent got any respect for any1 or anything, most parents dont give a shit what their kids do and their out till what ever time, it really winds me up.
not every1 in telfords like this,we never got away wiv nothing growing up, had to be in by the time it was dark wouldnt of lit a fag infront of my dad as a kid and id of got a thrashin if it was anything 2 do wiv drugs or drink, weve all turned out fine, its the way they are brought up in the first place !!!
hahaa u all suck dick reli ya dont know fuk all bout telford ya tool i live in donnington n it aint like ur makin out to b, everywhere ya go in d uk borin there nuffin to do in most towns or cities so go suck yaself reli
i agree with you on everything
im 16 and i live in telford, next door to donnington by asda. I hate chavs they make my blood boil. I don’t want to stay in Telford for the rest of my life. when you go out anywhere you can always smell weed everywhere and anywhere you go. I have mates that smoke it and tbh i use to smoke it but i don’t anymore. I don’t want that kind of lifestyle. Some people are even scared to leave there house at night incase they get attacked or mugged. There is an alley behind my house where people have got raped as well. There is some sick people that live here and i can’t wait to leave. Maybe we should use them little islands around the Uk to stick all the chavs on and put a gate all around it so they don’t get out. 
Most people that was not chav before but now are, are just trying to fit in to act cool. Even 8 years olds are smoking and there parents let them and let them stay out to stupid o’clock
Best wishes Hayley
PS get out while you can x
