Corby Hits the Big Time

Go-ahead Corby Borough Leader Chris Mallender has launched a bid for Corby to become a City. It would be a meteoric rise from sleepy village, through town status onto being a fully-fledged City in under a century.


To be honest you would be forgiven for thinking that Corby was already a City.



  • It has shopping facilities unrivalled anywhere in Western Europe


  • It is a place where vast numbers of people not originally from the area have descended


  • It ranks highly right up there with our worse cities when it comes to drink and drug abuse


  • Teenage pregnancy is seen as a positive career choice


  • The threat of sectarian division weighs heavily on the place


  • There are rival football teams of a comparable size - Corby and S&L


  • The place gets as many government grants as it can bank


  • They talk funny


PATGOD is more than happy to help our local neighbour achieve this aim. We say, slap a cathedral on top of the Corby Candle or next door to the Junkie Drop-in Centre and call the place a City!
