Any city that has the Cavern in it deserves to be city of culture :D

The Cavern was demolished, the new one is a cheap knockoff designed to fleece tourists!

The Beatles are the most over rated band in history anyway. So if you remove them, what culture does Liverpool have if any? oh forgot.. scousers are all comedians too... bollocks. name a funny scouser.

was a disgrace when liverpool won against newcastle and gateshead... once again the scousers stole something.

Yes of course I have been there, infact I used to go there on a weekly basis as part of my job before my back problems flared up. As for the accent, it is a 'comedy' scouse accent and was wrote that way to take the piss, not to be an accurate representation of the scouse dialect.

Actually as a Liverpudlian myself I can see that is quite an accurate description of the scouse language.

There are two distinct types of scouser

1:The whining smackhead
Arr ehh mateth, cud yer borra us qawid.
2:The cocky twat
Ow fast dus dat go lad? Me brovers got one of dem, but is iz betta dan urs.
Giz us a go. Ah looke ad im, he gorra weed on, it's aright la were not gonna rob it.

call me odd but i quite like the scouse accent... tbh i actually like all of the UKs accents, and tbh you should here the dorset one tis a roit faaaarmer way o tawkin 'at iiiis, got awl the words awl streeeetched owt loike.

i think they make the place more interesting, however te city of liverpool its self i cant comment on because i have not been there... tbh no offence i have no inclination to do so but thats just because i'm not really in to big cities.

I lived in liverpool for a couple of years and I have to say all of the old stereotypes about liverpool are mostly bollox. Its a lovely city with lots of culture and great nightlife. Definately a worthy city of the capital of culture imo.
